He was speaking at a farewell programme for the pilgrims organised by the Karnataka State Haj Committee at Ansar School, located near Mangaluru International Airport on Monday morning.

He urged the Haj pilgrims to pray for the peace and communal harmony in India in general and Karnataka in particular during their pilgrimage.

“Miscreants are spreading violence and killing people in the name of cow protection. Do not forget to pray for the protection of innocent people from violent gau rakshaks,” he said.

The programme began with a dua by Dakshina Kannada Khazi Thwaka Ahmed Musliyar. Udupi Khazi Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal gave a pep talk to the pilgrims.

Mulki-Moodbidri MLA K Abhaychandra Jain presided over. District in-charge minister B Ramanath Rai, Food Minister U T Khader, legislators B A Mohiddin Bava, Ivan D’Souza, DK Wakf Advisory Committee president SM Rasheed Haji, Muslim Central Committee president KS Mohammed Masood were present among others.

This year’s first of Haj pilgrims from Karnataka would begin the sacred journey today at 4:15 p.m. from the terminal of the airport today. On July 25 and 26 the flights would take off at 12.55 p.m. and 4.15 p.m.

Nearly 6,000 pilgrims will participate in the pilgrimage from Karnataka. These pilgrims were selected from among 23,514 applicants, on the basis of draw of lots, except those aged above 70.

Over 4.48 lakh people have applied online for the pilgrimage in the country this season. However, Saudi Arabia offered a quota of 1.7 lakh to India. Of them, 45,000 would travel through private travel agencies, while 1.25 lakh would travel through Haj Committees.

Yeddi and Shobha will ask Rajnath to ask NIA investigation and use less mp kateeel will ask for higher compensation . This is the climax and situation raised by our chaddi group politicians for the sake of power. Karnataka state govt must take strcit action against all this big hate mongers including sadananda this . Assure no one will support these criminals. And their engaged goondas will never come in front. If there is no sponsors to feed their goondas will never come in front. Duirng Babri Masjid demolition there is no any untoward , unpleasant cases observed in our peace loving DK surroundings. Now after rss backing bjp rule these things are appear frequently.
Suggest encounter and finish them for ever . Definitely there will be permanent peace allover DK and it will become a example for rest of the districts and states.

Jai Hind Jai Karnataka Jai Tulunad

Shivamogga, Jun 20: Shivamogga District unit of Congress led by party veteran Kagodu Thimmappa staged a protest against state government's proposal to amend the land reform act, which will allow non-agriculturist to buy farmland.

The leaders of Farmers' Union (Raith Sangh) also staged a protest at Mahaveer circle and questioned CM's stand as he took oath in the name of farmers.

The district congress staged a protest at the premise of the Deputy Commissioner office in Shivamogga city.

The protesters termed Karnataka Government led by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa as an anti-farmers government.

According to Congress and Raith Sang, the proposed amendments to Karnataka State Land reforms act 1961 will cause harm to farmers.

"According to the proposed amendment, non-agriculturists like business tycoons can also purchase the agriculture land. This will help the businessman and will be harmful to farmers," protesters said.

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

 

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

We respect ur decision sir.

 

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

 

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

 

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
