The Janata Dal (Secular) supremo, who arrived in the city in the morning, visited Shri Durga Parameshwari temple in Kateel and paid obeisance to the deity.

He was welcomed priests Anantha Asranna, Venkatramana Asranna, Harinarayanadas Asranna and others.

Later he also paid a visit to Ullal and offered special prayers at Hazrat Sayyid Shareeful Madani Darga.

Ullal Juma Masjid and Sayyid Madani Darga committee president Abdul Rasheed Haji among others welcomed the former PM.

Interestingly, industrialist B M Farooq, who had contested recent Rajya Sabha polls through JD(S), accompanied Mr Gowda to both the holy places.

It's worth mentioning here that Mr Gowda had promised a prominent post in the party after the Rajya Sabha poll debacle.

He knows that there is no difference between Durga & Darga. Worshiping the dead is shirk (Major sin) which Allah will not forgive. It is just a Money making center & mafia center

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.
