Mangaluru, Sep 1: More than a year after a Hindu youth from Sullia taluk in coastal Karnataka embraced Islam, a group of Hindutva activists on Wednesday staged a protest in his village urging the government and police department to arrest him to find out if he has links with any terror group.

24-year-old Satish Acharya from Mavamjadka in Mandekolu village had accepted Islam on his own will last year in Kerala, where he was working. A certificate issued by Therbiyathul Islam Sabha of Kozhikode on April 15, 2015 stated that Sathish had changed his name to Muhammed Mustakim following his four-month stay at the sabha.

After conversion, he did not break up his relationship with any of the family members and went to mosque from his home without any hesitation. Even though it was an internal matter of his family for one year, recently a few local Hindutva leaders came to know about the about his change of faith and reportedly threatened him.

On Wednesday, August 31, a group of protesters, led by Sangh Parivar activist and former local gram panchayat president Suresh Kanemaradka, gathered in front of the bus stop at Mandekolu village and raised slogans against Muslim organizations that help Hindu youths to accept Islam.

The protesters said that the police should arrest the converted youth and subject him to rigorous interrogation to find out the truth behind the conversion. They claimed that radical groups were luring innocent Hindu men and women in various ways and using them for anti-social activities.

Addressing the protesters, Mr. Kanemaradka said that the way Sathish had changed his religious thoughts had led to fear among the villagers that radical groups may try to influence youths from the village, which was known for communal harmony.

He said that security agencies should considered this conversion case very seriously and conduct a high level probe. He also warned to intensify the protest and make it a national issue if the police failed to take necessary action against all those who played role in his conversion.

Incumbent president of Mandekolu gram panchayat Mohini Chandrashekar said that the fear was more so because the conversion of Sathish had come at a time when youths from Kerala had left their villages allegedly to join the ISIS.

Another Hindutva activist Vinutha Pathikallu said, “It is unfortunate that such a disturbing development has been reported from the village, where both Hindus and Muslims are living in harmony. If the people will opt another religion for the lure of money, it is equal to dishonouring one's mother.”

Former panchayat president Jayaraj Kukketti, Lakshman Ugranemane, BJP Shakti Kendra, Jalsuru unit president Uday Kumar Achar, TP former vice president Mamatha were among the protesters.

Meanwhile, the local police have reportedly confiscated the mobile phone of the converted youth and questioned a few Muslim men who were in touch with him. Sources said that the family members of the youth did not take part in the protest.

Dear Manohar,

Many of my friends converted to islam in Mangalore, long time back and you know wats their opinion is?,,, that we as friends never informed them about islam that's the reason they took long time to converts, now they are very practising Muslims then we,

you know why, brcause we are Muslims by chance, but they by choice!!!, my friend please understand before comment, thats why people are attracting towards this religion and do some homework in sha Allah you will also realise the truth behind ,

that is the reason we have one more life after death where god will decide our destiny to live in heaven or hell, which will be decided by our deeds & actions on this earth,

so if anyone has a good mind will try his best to get heaven in here after, think twice before it too late,

now I informed you the truth don't tell on the day of judgement to the god that no one informed you about this , good luck brother may god bless you and us all.

Dear Manohar whenever you talk about muslims, yoiu point out that they belongs to pakistan. This question you need to ask Advani, Sushma, gujral family whose ancestors are from Pakistan. Did you questioned any time? Do you have the guts to question them? Many of the Hindu families are belong to Pakistan Origin. We trust them without questioning. Then why we look at as pakistani who are born indian? Ravishanakr clearly rasied slogan in favour of pakistan. Did any one question them?Where are you at that time? Sitting in cave? If you are natilaist go and protest.

It is the ignorance of God's knowledge that the cheddis feeded. Cheddis always take a kind person away from God knowledge.
ISLAM is a divine religion and no one can harm it... its a challenge and those who challenged have themselves accepted ISLAM. It is better for them to stay neutral rather than making enemy of ISLAM.
I request the Saffron member ... First Learn what is ISLAM .. it will introduce U to YOUR CREATOR who created U , ME and all that exists...
Dont Play with divine religion.. U will try every effort, U will spend every money, U will use every manpower but in the end U wIll be the LOSER and UNSUCCESSFUL... & bow down to it.......

I believe in ONE GOD ALLAH
Muhammad as my messenger
and ISLAM as my religon...

ISLAM is against terrorism... I dont need to prove that to the cheddis...instead I feel pity they dont know their own CREATOR and fall trap to the LIars and deceivers.

When family members did not take part in protest, then who the hell are they to stage protest.

What ever you plan but ALLAH is the best planner of all.

First of all know what is religion.
If any religion is not just nor contradicting truth, science, then it can not be the real religion. those are called blind faith.

As nobody has contradiction on 1 God, then find which is the right religion.
Be wise to discover it and follow it. And share it honestly with as much as possible. That true religion will never says to harm or spoil relation with others.

Don't think all our ancestors have followed the right faith.
Perhaps some have followed rightly and some were wrong.

When you know the truth, follow the truth.
The GOD has given us brain, use it properly.

IF YOU CANT FOLLOW ATLEAST KEEP QUIET DONT TROUBLE OTHERS, DONT INTERFERE WITH OTHER'S AFFAIRS.

Dear Chaddi team
What is the problem with you people. If anybody accept islam or any other religion what cause you problem. You people are protesting because one hindu population has been decreased. DO not ever try to interfere in one's personal matter. If you dont like islam and muslims do not make trouble to others who is willing to accept islam.
Whole of the world will accept islam soon in sha Allah. That time you people may suicide .

Bengaluru, Jun 9: A 24-year-old who wanted to experience the feeling of death lost his life after consuming pesticide — he recorded it all on TikTok — in Koratagere taluk of Tumakuru district on Saturday evening.

Chided by his mother for not earning money, Dhananjaya, a resident of Gouraganahalli, on Saturday evening bought pesticide from a shop and shot a 15-second TikTok video, saying, “I want to experience the feeling of what death would be like. I will try to kill myself.”

Locals rushed Dhananjaya to a nearby hospital where he breathed his last the next morning. Koratagere police registered a case of unnatural death.

According to police, Dhananjaya had in the past rammed his Bajaj Pulsar bike into a tree to ‘experience’ death but had survived with minor injuries. Villagers and family members had advised him to not to take such risks. But he continued to do so as he was obsessed with death and posted his opinion regularly on TikTok, where he had 431 followers.

He tied the knot four months ago and was running an autorickshaw on rent. However, his earnings reduced to zero during the lockdown and he wasn’t mentally stable, claimed villagers.

Investigators said Dhananjaya wanted to scare his mother with his suicide threat and wanted to ‘experience’ death. He consumed poison near a farm but later panicked thinking he would die. However, he was not in a position to ride back home. He called his friend, who visited the spot and shifted him to hospital on Saturday night, police said.

New Delhi, Apr 27: Indian prime minister Narendra Modi has said the monthlong ongoing lockdown has yielded positive results and that the country has managed to save “thousands of lives”.

Modi, who had a videoconference with various heads of the states on Monday, said the impact of the coronavirus, however, will remain visible in the coming months, according to a press statement released by his office. On the issue of getting back Indians who are overseas, the Prime Minister said that this has to be done keeping in mind the fact that they don’t get inconvenienced and their families are not under any risk.

During the meeting with state heads, Modi advocated for social distancing of at least 6 feet and the use of face masks as a rapid response to tackle COVID-19.

He said that states should put their efforts of converting hotspots, or red zones, into “orange and thereafter green zones”.

India last week eased the lockdown by allowing shops to reopen and manufacturing and farming activities to resume in rural areas to help millions of poor, daily-wage earners. But the economic costs of the nationwide lockdown continue to mount in a country of 1.3 billion people.

Modi, who put India under a strict lockdown on March 25, did not say if the lockdown restrictions will extend after May 3.

India has confirmed over 27,000 cases of the coronavirus, including 872 deaths.

Jan 2: A year after 12,000 acres of forests in Bandipur went up in smoke, the Karnataka Forest Department is gearing up for the summer even as the Forest Survey of India (FSI) has cautioned that 22.78 lakh acres (9,222 sq km) or about 20% of the green cover spread across three districts in the central part of the state is fire-prone.

The FSI studied forest fire incidents across the country between 2004-05 and 2017 before coming up with state-specific inputs.

According to the 13-year observation, Karnataka has 7,352 “fire points” or areas measuring 5 km X 5 km with frequent fire incidents.

Though the number is lower compared to states like Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Odisha with over 20,000 points, the sheer spread of the fire-prone area itself is a challenge for the Karnataka Forest Department.

According to data, about three lakh acres (1,199.9 sq km) of forest area is very highly fire prone with 26 to 52 fire incidents in 13 years. This is followed by 7.6 lakh acres (3,067 sq km) of “highly fire prone” areas with an average of one to two incidents every year.

Almost all of the “red alert” areas are concentrated in Uttara Kannada, Chikkmagaluru, Shivamogga and Chamarajanagar districts. As temperature rises at the end of January, so does the risk of forest fires, requiring officials to be on vigil till the end of summer.

After an investigation into the Bandipur blaze revealed that faulty fire lines and poor supervision were the reason for the spread of the fire, the department has come up with a multi-pronged approach to prevent similar incidents this year.

“After the Bandipur incident, we have created a fire cell and a standard operating procedure (SOP) which everyone has to follow. Firstly, a fire management plan is prepared and approved by a competent authority.

The SOP has well defined firelines which have to be executed by December-end and burning must be completed by January 15,”  Principal Chief Conservator of Forests (Head of Forest Force) Punati Sridhar told DH.

He said that to ensure its strict implementation, GPS readings of firelines are to be submitted for random verification.

“All the required equipment from fire jackets to shoes, gloves, backpack sprayers and tractors mounted with 2,000-5,000 litre tanks with high pressure pumps will be deployed at vantage points,” he said.

In addition, the department’s fire cell works in collaboration with the Karnataka State Remote Sensing Applications Centre (KSRSAC) to give fire alerts within half and hour of an area catching fire and detected by satellites.

“Earlier, the gap used to be four hours by when the fire would have spread beyond control. Now, with reduced time gap, it would be easier to control fire early,” he added.
