Mangaluru, Sep 24: Brushing aside the rumours of existence of a so called conversion racket' in Sullia taluk, a senior police officer in Dakshina Kannada district has said that not a single instance of forced conversion has come to light so far.

bhushanThe district unit of Bharatiya Janata Party had recently demanded the police to take stringent action against those who indulge in religious conversion activities.

District BJP president Sanjeev Matandoor had also alleged that the groups that encourage conversion were enjoying political patronage. Hence, the police not taking any action against them, he claimed.

Rubbishing the allegations, Superintendent of Police Bhushan Gulabrao Borase said that so far there has been no complaint of forcible conversion from any youth.

Mere allegations have been made by some organisations like Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal about some groups indulging in forcible conversion and they are being inquired into, he said.

Another police officer said that in one instance a youth was assaulted by Hindutva groups for embracing Islam.

"Satish Acharya, aka Muhammad Mustakim, a resident of Mandekolu village in Sullia taluk has made it clear that he accepted Islam on his own will and without any pressure. He also has accused the Hindutva groups of attacking him," he said.

In this case book the hate mongers and levy heavy penalty on them. They should be jailed for not less than 10 years with penalty of not less that 50 lacs for the loss of property done by the follower of these hate mongers. Take away their voting right and kick them out of karnataka.

If there are no instances of forcible conversions, what action they are going to take against those who accuse without any evidences? What action they are going to take against those hate mongers who incite communal hatred by using falsified allegations? At least a warning that it won't be repeated again or an public apology?

Prem and true (anti) Indian are doing religious propaganda here. coastaldigest.com should not entertain such comments. This is not a religious forum. They are encouraging religious conversions. DK police should take necessary action against such comments.

ISLAM is the only religion accepted by God...
Eternal life begins when death happens...
Dont worship the creation of God, thats the only sin which will not be forgiven by God... (associating partners with God...)
Know who is our CREATOR before bowing down to created things..
God is merciful and most compassionate... A honest heart will find God if his intention is right to know about God...

To know about God and his attributes read religious scripture specially the QURAN (the quranproject online) a manual to MANKIND... Read to understand about Creator not to Hate... please, as a human brother ... keep away your hatred and make effort to know who is our CREATOR rather than falling prey to some hate mongers...

USE YOUR GOD GIVEN INTELLECT...

Surah barakah 2:256

There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion.

Forcing anyone to convert is not allowed in islam.

No other religion book says so.

Bengaluru, Jul 30: As the protest by Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers entered the 20th day, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday assured them that he would take up their demands with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The ASHA workers are sitting in protests with a number of demands that include a minimum salary of Rs 12,000 per month.

Assuring that their matter will be taken up, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu said while speaking to reporters, "We know how hard ASHA workers have been working as frontline warriors in the fight against COVID-19. I will discuss with CM about their demand for a minimum wage of Rs 12,000 per month and the final decision will be taken soon."

"We went to the police to allow us to protest. Officials then took us to the CM. During the meeting, he demanded some time to sort out our issues. 

We told him we are protesting for the past 20 days and that it was he who needs to call a meeting with us. Only then will he know the problems being faced by ASHA workers," an ASHA worker said clad in her signature pink sari.

"When asked as to why salaries of ASHA workers were not hiked, while it was done for doctors and other healthcare officials, the CM requested for time to look into the matter. 

We are not much happy now, but will if he comes in front of the media and promises to sort out our issues, then we will listen to him", she added.
