Udupi, Nov 21: Vishwesha Tirtha Swami, the chief pontiff of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt stated that he did not invite Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah to Krishna temple during latter’s recent Udupi visit because he had ignored the previous invitations.

Replying to media persons questions on the sidelines of Haji Abdullah child and mother’s hospital inauguration in Udupi on Sunday, the CM had clarified that he never deliberately avoided visiting Krishna temple/mutt. He had also said that this time he did not get any invitation from the temple.

The seer on Monday said: “I have invited the CM many times but he ignored us and that's why this time I didn't call him.”

“When we know that CM is not interested in visiting the Krishna mutt, why should we call him again and again? During every visit to Udupi, we have sent him an invitation to visit the mutt but he never turned up. Now, it’s up to him. I don't think he'll come in the future too," the seer claimed.

"Whenever I meet him outside, we speak but I have no idea what's his problem. Maybe it's because he listens to intellectuals who don't like the Krishna Mutt or the Pejawar seer and has decided not to visit the mutt," added the seer, who is also a well-wisher of BJP ‘margdarshak’ of many saffron outfits.

Thanks CD for letting us know the true version of the story. Some media portrayed as if chief minister told lies. Her it is very clear. Let Pejawar seer stop Made-Snana, Pankti Bheda etc uncultured practices then send invitation to a leader like Siddaramaiah.

Mumbai, Feb 3: Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has accused the BJP-led central government of siding with Karnataka in the Supreme Court over the Belgaum border dispute between Karnataka and Maharashtra.

"I am committed toward a unified Maharashtra... Whatever is happening in Belgaum is shocking. I will meet the committee looking after this matter. The central government is a guardian of all states and is expected to be unbiased towards all states, but it is shocking that Centre is taking sides with Karnataka in Supreme Court for last the five years. This is really shocking," Thackeray said in an interview with Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamana.

On December 7 last year, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray had chaired a high-level meeting over the border dispute between the two states.

It was decided in the meeting that attempts will be made to get fast track hearing on the border issue in the Supreme Court.

Earlier on January 19, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut had said that Belgaum border dispute between Karnataka and Maharashtra is a long-pending dispute but can be resolved if Union Home Minister wants.

"If Home Ministry can resolve Kashmir issue and abrogate Article 370 then I think this border issue can be resolved too if Amit Shah wants. The matter comes under the Home Ministry. It is a long-pending issue. He should pay attention to this too," he said while speaking to ANI in Belagavi.

In the wake of Saudi Arabia's assurance that Masjid al-Haram of Makkah and Masjid an-Nabawi of Madinah will be opened for believers after some days, a message has gone viral on social media claiming that both the holy mosques will open on Ramadan 8 (May 1).

The message which was widely circulated on Facebook and WhatsApp, also contained certain condition such as people should fetch their own prayer mats and that they should not use the washrooms in the mosques. 

Clarification

Meanwhile, the authorities of the two holy mosques, issued a clarification that the claims made in the viral post are false and baseless.

"The message being circulated about the opening date for Haramiain (two holy mosques) for public is completely baseless and false. The suspension of prayers for general public is still in effect," they said in a social media post.
