Hindu population is declining because of internal insecurity, inequality: Kharge

August 29, 2016

Suttur, (Mysuru Dist), Aug 29: Congress leader in the Lok Sabha Mallikarjuna Kharge on Sunday said family planning or any other legislations were not responsible for the decline in population of Hindus, on contrary, it is the untouchability, discrimination and injustice within the religion are the culprits.

Addressing the gathering during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations of JSS?Gurukula at Suttur, Kharge reacted strongly to RSS?chief Mohan Bhagwat's comments on declining Hindu population.

Kharge said, “A powerful person in the country had questioned that which law has asked Hindus to procreate fewer children. Who has stopped them?.”

“The growth rate of Hindu population is declining because of insecurity, inequality among the people of the religion. When the religion, which is made for the development of the people, fails to think about the welfare of the people, then obviously, people think why they should be a part of the religion,” he opined.

Kharge recalled the contributions and ideologies of the 12th Century social reformer Basavanna who aspired for casteless and classless society through his Anubhava Mantapa'.

“While majority of the mutts are playing constructive role in the development of the society and country, divisive elements are endangering social fabric of the nation. People should decide which is good for the society, he added.

Suttur seer Shivarathri Deshikendra Swami, Art of Living guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Home Minister G?Parameshwara, Sugar and Cooperation Minister H?S?Mahadev Prasad, former Chief Minister H?D?Kumaraswamy and others were present.

Comments

Mr. Kharge well said, and very well said.
If any religion (its teaching) does not protect the people then why should be a part of that religion ?. Very well said. It is 100 times perfect.

Then it is the right and duty of the people study all popular religions. Discover the 1 perfect religion that never contradicts the truth and science. There can not be more than 1 such perfect religion. Because the true religion is from the God. The God will not contradict HIS own religion.
Once you find it, follow it, share it with others. Others should support, share, enjoy the peaceful life so that no difference in ideology.
God help us to know truth from your teaching.

If U really use your intellect... then follow this
NA TASYA Pratima Asti - There is no image of God...
DOnT worship Man made idols, images, statues, objects, animals, and others....
Look for the TRUTH, Who is this GOD...
U can check in different religious book and U will find out the TRUTH of the ONE GOD who created U ME and all that exists.
He is the one who gives us life and death...
Search for him ... Cos of his mercy ... U still have your life... But YOU guys choose to worship the man made objects .... which is INJUSTICE to the CREATOR.
Please Study and learn about Who is our CREATOR ... If U are HONEST and want to know TRUE GOD then only GOD will Guide U to TRUTH... or else U will be in DARKNESS and live a life of meaning less and illogical... and the end will be more severe... (May God protect us from it)

PONDER and THINK and LOOK for the REALITY

Universities must conduct backlog exams for final semester students: Karnataka Dy CM

News Network

August 4,2020

Bengaluru, Aug 4: With preparations underway for conducting exams for the final semester/ year students in the state, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr CN Ashwathnarayan on Monday directed the respective universities to conduct exams for the backlog papers as well.

"In the wake of COVID-19, it has been decided to hold exams only for the students of final semester/year courses. It has come to our notice that some universities have decided against conducting exams for final year students who have a backlog to clear from previous semesters. This is unpardonable," the Deputy Chief Minister said.

"Our intention is to see that the final year students finish their course. In the present situation, conducting only final semester exams won't help. We have to help the students in clearing their backlogs," added Ashwathnarayan, directing all universities to compulsorily conduct these exams.

Meanwhile, Ashwathnarayan thanked the staff and officials of various government departments who were responsible for successfully conducting the CET exams even amidst the difficult situation in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic.

"In all, 1,94,419 students had registered for the CET exams, of which 1,75,428 wrote the exams. The percentage of students who took up the exams this year was equivalent to that of the previous years, in normal times," the DCM informed.

"After we successfully conducted the exams, Arunachal Pradesh is going to conduct the Public Service Commission exams on the lines of how we successfully conducted the exams. Likewise, even our KPSC has said it will conduct the exams. We must appreciate the good work of the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA), which has set an example for others," Ashwathnarayan said.

The deputy chief minister said that 33 colleges in various districts across the state faced shortage of land and that it is the responsibility of the District Commissioners (DCs) to get the lands sanctioned for all these colleges.
In Bagalkot district alone land has not been sanctioned for six degree colleges, he said.

Reacting to this, Bagalkot DC Captain Rajendra assured to look into the matter as soon as he receives the proposal from department officials.

"Similarly, there is shortage of land for five Diploma colleges and 28 ITI colleges in different parts of the state. The DCs must immediately pay attention to this. Once they get the land, buildings will come up within no time," the Karnataka deputy chief minister said.

Karnataka CM shuffles portfolios of 6 unsatisfied new ministers

News Network

February 12,2020

Bengaluru: Karnataka chief minister BS Yediyurappa on Tuesday shuffled the portfolios of six newly inducted ministers after they expressed unhappiness about the departments allocated to them barely 24 hours ago.

Three ministers — BC Patil, Anand Singh and K Gopalaiah — received new responsibilities and as many — Shivaram Hebbar, Srimanth Patil and Byrathi Basavaraj — have been saddled with more.

Sources said the six ministers met the CM late Monday night and said they were not happy with the portfolios handed to them. They reportedly threatened not to assume office until their demands were met, forcing the CM to effect the changes early Tuesday.

BC Patil is now vested with agriculture (he had been given forest), Anand Singh forest, environment and ecology (earlier food and civil supplies) and Gopalaiah food and civil supplies (instead of small-scale industries). BC Patil said, “I’m happy I can now be with farmers.” Shivaram Hebbar has been given the additional responsibility of sugar along with labour allocated to him on Monday.

Allocation of the forest portfolio to Anand Singh has raised eyebrows as the Vijayanagara MLA had been arrested in 2013 and 2015 in cases of illegal mining and illegal transportation of mining ore. Singh owned SB Mineral in Ballari and the Lokayukta had charged him with transporting 17,086 tonnes of iron ore without permission or valid licence. He was acquitted in a Belikeri iron ore export case due to lack of evidence.

Byrathi Basvaraj, who has been given the urban development ministry, will also handle Karnataka Urban Water Supply and Drainage Board and Karnataka Urban Infrastructure Development and Finance Corporation.

Srimanth Patil has received minority welfare department apart from textile.

The exercise of portfolio shuffling is likely to continue with minister K Sudhakar reportedly unhappy with medical education.

In another embarrassment to the CM, Mahesh Kumathalli on Tuesday refused to take over as chairman of the Mysore Sales International Ltd, saying he wants to be a minister. BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal urged Yediyurappa to induct Kumathalli into the cabinet in line with the promise made to him when he joined the BJP before bypolls. “The CM must keep his word,” he said.
