It’s Kalladka Bhat’s order: Churches, dargahs, madrasas must celebrate national festivals

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat has urged the Karnataka government to issue a strict diktat to the religious centres of Christians and Muslims to compulsorily celebrate all the national festivals of India.

Speaking to media persons in Belagavi on Monday, Bhat said that it was the responsibility of the State government to ensure that national festivals are celebrated in churches, dargahs and madrasas.

Accusing the chief minister Siddaramaiah and his government of committing atrocities on Hindus in the name of promoting secularism, he urged the people to topple the “anti-Hindu government”.

He spoke against the Muzrai Department administering Hindu temples, while letting autonomous bodies like the Wakf board, oversee mosques and dargahs.

He said he will appreciate if religion dictated politics, but will not tolerate politics controlling religion. He warned the government against interfering in religious institutions.

Don’t jump to conclusions

Bhat decried the habit of “pointing fingers” at Hindutva organisations even before the investigations into the murder of activist-journalist Gauri Lankesh and scholar M.M. Kalburgi are over. “It is unfair to come to a conclusion before the police completed their task,” he added.

Unfortunately good secular are being killed by the criminals like these. Such criminals are lucky for not being harrassed or touched by anybody. This is temporary situation.

The God is watching and relaxing him to do more sins. Slowly he will be caught and nobody can save him.. We have seen many criminals in the past with all attrocities beyond the bounds. Finally their day had come.

Nobody can dare to force any religions,  what to follow and what not to follow. It is not the business of anybody. It is command what they are following from their God. If he wants he can do at his home even he can not force his people at the temple.

He is utter stupid, Politics is not controlled by any group or religion. It is the choice of democracy. The majority in the state  is Hindus. But all are not stupids like him.

Though they are majority, they selected good government. Because of Northern states, BJP came to power, now all Hindus are fed-up of Modi's group.

their end is also very imminent. Modi's time has come to get Political Sanyasam.

Bengaluru, Jan 15: The on-going process to select a new Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president is likely to drag on for few more days with former CM and opposition leader Siddaramaiah making a strong pitch for former minister MB Patil over DK Shivakumar for the post.

Siddaramaiah, who met AICC president Sonia Gandhi and other senior Congress leaders in New Delhi on Tuesday, reportedly argued in favour of Patil, saying his elevation would help the party win Lingayats to the fold.

“Yediyurappa, the undisputed leader of the Lingayat community, is almost at the end of his career and it is an opportunity for the Congress to gain the confidence of the community. Being a leader from North Karnataka, Patil fits the bill perfectly,” Siddaramaiah reportedly told Sonia.

Siddaramaiah is said to be backing Patil over Shivakumar as he is worried about losing his hold over the state unit, given Shivakumar’s popularity. While Sonia did give the former CM a patient hearing, she is said to have told him that he should obey and cooperate with whatever decision high command takes.

The high command is looking to evolve consensus on the new state president. “Sonia’s meeting with Siddaramaiah is part of this exercise. She wants to keep everybody in the loop,” said a functionary.

Siddaramaiah also met senior leaders Ahmed Patel and AK Anthony. He is expected to meet former AICC president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday.

However, some including Mallikarjun Kharge and Shamanur Shivashankarappa have expressed reservations against Patil’s elevation, pointing to his role in the controversial separate Lingayat religion issue which dented the Congress’ prospects in the 2018 assembly polls.

“He has a very bad name among Lingayats and making him president would prove counter-productive. Moreover, it is difficult to win back Lingayats as long as Yediyurappa is active in politics,” said a senior Congress leader.

Another functionary said a majority of state functionaries — and even some in the high command — favour Shivakumar as he is not only “resourceful”, but also has momentum. “With HD Deve Gowda and HD Kumaraswamy losing popularity among Vokkaligas, the possibility of the community backing Shivakumar is high. This may land him the top job,” the functionary said.
