Mangaluru, Jun 29: The Hindutva hardliners have upped the ante against Sri Vishwesha Teertha, the chief pontiff of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt for hosting an iftar meet at Krishna temple during Ramadan and promoting communal harmony.

In a joint press meet on Thursday Sri Ram  Sena and Hindu Maha Sabha accused the senior pontiff of betraying Hindu activists fighting for Hindutva by feeding Muslims in Krishna Temple and allowing them to offer namaz.

They have demanded the Seer to step down from the Paryaya peetha and hand over power to his next successor. "Age is catching up with the Seer. It's high time for him to retire. He should seek apology with Hindus for his act," they demanded. "This is a political gimmick as elections are round the corner," alleged Praveen Walke, state general secretary of the Sene.

Walke pointed out they are not against Muslim community, but organsing an Iftar get-together without consulting any Hindu leader has hurt their sentiments. "If the seer started organising Iftar decades ago, there wouldn't have communal disharmony among Hindus and Muslims. After the Ram Mandir and Babri Masjid issue, there is a misunderstanding between both the communities," noted Walke.

They also demanded similar gesture from Muslims to foster amity by allowing them inside Mosque for chanting bhajans and insisted Pejwar seer should arrange for it.

Walke termed that seers and religious leaders were responsible for destroying the future young Hindu youths in the name of Hinduism.

Pointing out at the recent Kalladka violence, they said this is the outcome of how Hindu youths are used by religious leaders. Dharmendra, state spokesperson of Hindu Maha Sabha alleged that Iftar inside temple is to score brownie points politically. He said that five years ago when Congress leader Janardhan Poojary celebrated Iftar in Kudroli Temple, BJP condemned and protested but there was silence this time.

Sri Rama Sene will hold protest condemning Sri Vishvesha Teertha organising Iftar in temple, on July 2.

New Delhi, Feb 2: Budget 2020 announcement that insurance behemoth LIC will be listed was well received by market participants who said this will be "IPO of the decade" akin to the Saudi Aramco listing.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Saturday said Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) will be listed as part of the government disinvestment initiative.

A "highlight of the budget is the LIC IPO, which is akin to the Saudi Aramco listing for Indian capital markets, and will be IPO of the decade," Vijay Bhushan, President, Association of National Exchanges Members of India (ANMI) said.

According to Krishna Kumar Karwa, Managing Director, Emkay Global Financial Services, the LIC IPO will be a big positive for corporate governance and transparency and will open up one more avenue for fund raising for the government over the years.

Metropolitan Stock Exchange, Interim CEO, Balu Nair said: "The LIC listing will be eagerly awaited by investors and will provide huge fillip to capital raising through the primary market." The government proposes to sell a part of its holding in LIC through an initial public offer, Sitharaman said while presenting Budget 2020-21.

"The government will sell part of LIC through its listing in the stock market which is also a positive trigger for the market," Amit Gupta, CO-Founder and CEO, TradingBells.

Jaideep Hansraj, MD and CEO of Kotak Securities said listing of LIC would help bridge a gap in the Fiscal Deficit for FY21.

Currently, the government owns the entire 100 per cent stake in LIC.

Saudi Aramco shares were listed in December last year.

Bengaluru, May 28: A complaint has been filed against BJP Karnataka state president and Lok Sabha member Nalin Kumar Kateel by the Congress Legislators charging him with issuing false information on Coronavirus to mislead the people.

The complaint was filed by MLCs Ivan D’Souza and Prakash Rathod at Vidhana Soudha police station on Thursday.

In the complaint they had alleged that “Kateel has been spreading false information that the position of World Health Organization’s (WHO) Chairman was given to India in appreciation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s achievement in Coronavirus management. 

In reality, the position was given to India on the basis of rotation. India’s stature gets affected because of such childish statements at the international level.”
