Poojary offers 'urulu seve' seeking divine intervention in Cauvery dispute

September 18, 2016

Manglauru, Sep 18: Former Union minister B Janardhana Poojary, who had recently advised the Karnataka government to violate the Supreme Court directive in Cauvery case and stop releasing water to Tamil Nadu, on Sunday offered Urulu Seve' at Sri Gokarnanatheshwara Temple, Kudroli here, seeking divine intervention in the century old dispute.

79-year-old Poojary, who is being sidelined by both Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee in recent days over his anti-Siddaramaiah rhetoric, rolled over the temple floor alone. Even though some of the party men and priests were present on the occasion none of them performed the Urulu Seve'.

While announcing his decision to perform the Urulu Seve' in a press meet in the city a couple of days ago, Mr Poojary had invited Karnataka chief minister to join the ritual. However, the latter has not responded to the invitation.

“I have sought divine blessings so that the court order is in favour of Karnataka. I also have prayed for the well-being of people of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Let the court order not create any untoward incidents in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu," Mr Poojary told media persons after performing Urulu Seve'. The apex court is expected to take up the issue on September 20.

"The Supreme Court bench in its interim order has asked Karnataka to release 12,000 cusecs on a daily basis till September 20. We all should pray for a favourable order this time,” he said.

Mr Poojary also called upon the chief minister to personally gather facts related to the Cauvery water row and share the same with the legal experts. "There are sufficient documents to present before the court. Let the chief minister work to collect documents," he added.

God created that river to flow through 4 states, all those live along side it's path have right to use it's water. By blocking that river, we are going against the will of God.

Good exercise! hats off to you, in this old age....

Now 100%

Poojary knows that the ground is finished with Marbles very nice to roll . if it was ground with rock tiles , let him do with that ... All Drama ...

Poojary ji.. you dedicated your entire life to a party which does not deserve you. At least now you say good buy to Congress and join BJP so that you get peace in old age.

NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI - There is no image of GOD ...

How come you worship the man made idols? Think and PONDER . Dont just live a life of unaware... Search for TRUE GOD>... God guides those who look for him honestly...

I heard that a doctor had advised him to roll over the floor to maintain his health. He seized the opportunity for this show off. a few days ago he did urulu seve for favourable yettinahole verdict. in a few days he may do the same to get ticket in next lok sabha polls..

Poojary is going to kill traditional 'Pili Yaasa'. I think in next maarnami nobody will do tiger dance. All para pilis will don white cloths like pojary and do urulu seve thinking it will attract more people :p

Kerala court dismisses Bishop Mulakkal's discharge plea

News Network

March 16,2020

Kottayam, Mar 16: A trial court in Kerala on Monday dismissed a discharge petition filed by Bishop Franco Mulakkal, in connection with the case of alleged rape of a nun in which he is the prime accused.

In his plea filed before the Additional District and Sessions Court I, Mulakkal had claimed that prima facie there was no case to frame charges against him.

Dismissing the plea, the trial court said the bishop should stand for trial in the rape case.

The bishop's lawyer said an appeal would be filed in the High Court against the trial court order.

The prosecution had filed its objection to the plea filed by the bishop, accused of raping and sexually assaulting a nun of the same diocese.

The bishop had filed the plea just ahead of commencement of the preliminary hearing on charges against him in January this year.

The case is based on a complaint filed against the bishop by the nun.

In her complaint to the police in June, 2018, the nun had alleged that she was subjected to sexual abuse by the bishop during the period between 2014 and 2016.

The bishop, who was arrested by the Special Investigation Team which probed the case, has been charged with wrongful confinement, rape, unnatural sex and criminal intimidation.
