Thiruvananthapuram, Nov 21: Asokan, father of Akhila, aka Hadiya, on Monday prevented the Kerala State Women’s Commission chairperson (SWC) M. C. Josephine from meeting his 26-year-old daughter who converted to Islam and then married a Muslim boy.

The latest controversy comes when she is scheduled to state her side of the case in the Supreme Court this month. Ms. Hadiya, who is forced to stay in her Hindu parents’ house in Kottayam, is the focal point of a national debate on whether she was a victim of “deceptive conversion” to Islam or “love jihad”. 

Her husband had moved the Supreme Court to free Ms. Hadiya from parental custody to reunite with him.

The apex court had reserved its judgment and ordered the National Investigation Agency to probe whether the marriage was part of a “love jihad” conspiracy to convert her to Islam. Ms. Josephine had gone to her house close on the heels of the visit of National Women’s Commission chairperson Rekha Sharma, who is said to be a BJP supporter.

Ms. Sharma had met Ms. Hadiya and claimed that she was hale and happy. She said Mr. Asokan rejected her offer to fly Ms. Hadiya to New Delhi at State expense. The father also refused to reveal their travel plans.

are you serious?? OMG such low mentality... she is legal age dude... till when should her father decide till she is 99 years old...

@ Yogesh, I presume you are a graduate, but still lack basic educated men’s rational thinking capacity. This would mainly be caused by your narrowmind and colour code thoughts…

 

so to make it more clear to you yourself, I will ask you a simple question if a Muslim girl (20 years) loves and marry a Hindu boy (22 years) will it be love gharwapasi, do you think NIA would be required???

This mind-set is very clear your hatred and biased reasoning against the opposite community, based upon no personal issues but only through mindwash is dangerous…

You have risen and become Taliban thoughts individual.

 

You might look at other community individual and without knowing him start hating him? Just because you are brain washed, my fellow citizen.

Get cure for your infection, don’t let it spread…

 

You have nothing to fear

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government. 

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited. 

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.

New Delhi, Apr 29: WhatsApp on Tuesday said it will now allow up to eight people to connect on a group video call as an increasing number of people turn to digital platforms to connect with friends and family amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Facebook-owned company said over the last month, people on average are spending over 15 billion minutes talking each day on WhatsApp calls, well above a typical day before the pandemic.

"...we see that people all over the world are turning to voice and video calling on WhatsApp more than ever before. Group calling has been particularly useful and our users have asked to connect with more people at once," WhatsApp said in a blogpost.

Starting Tuesday, the company is doubling the number of participants one can have on a WhatsApp video or voice call from 4 to 8 people at a time, it added.

WhatsApp emphasised that like written messages, all calls on its platform are protected with end-to-end encryption.

"We have built group calling in a way that makes it available for as many users as possible, including people on lower-end devices and slow network conditions," it added.

WhatsApp said that to access the new, higher participant limit on WhatsApp calls, all participants in a call need to update to the latest version of WhatsApp available on iPhone or Android.

Video calling tools like Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom and others have also seen a significant jump in userbase and traffic as people connect while maintaining social distancing amid the coronavirus outbreak.

Last week, Facebook had introduced Messenger Rooms that will soon hold up to 50 people with no time limit.

It had added that the company will also add ways to create rooms from Instagram Direct, WhatsApp and Portal.

Noting that between WhatsApp and Messenger, more than 700 million accounts participate in calls every day, Facebook had said, adding that video calling on Messenger and WhatsApp more than doubled in many countries.

Also, views of Facebook Live and Instagram Live videos have also increased significantly in March, it said.

Mangaluru, Jun 2: Even as the mosques in Karnataka recieved green signal from state government to reopen for congregational prayers from June 8, a senior Islamic scholar in coastal Karnataka has encouraged Muslims to prefer to offer prayers at homes during covid times. 

Twaqa Ahmed Al-Azhari, the Qadhi of Mangaluru, has welcomed the state government's decision to allow Muslims to offer congregational prayers including Jum'a prayers with certain precautions and conditions.

"Government has upheld our religions sentiments. All the mosques where congregational prayers will be held from June 8 should strictly follow all the guidelines issued by the government," he said. 

He also suggested that if any mosque is not in a position to follow all the guidelines issued by the government then it should refrain from holding congregational prayers. "Muslims can continue offer Fard and Jumá prayers at homes as the cornavirus pandemic is still spreading in the region and across the world," he said.
