Udupi, Nov 23: The coastal city of Udupi is all set to host three-day Dharma Sansad, an international level conference of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) from November 24 to 26. It would be inaugurated by Shivakumar Mahaswami of Siddaganga Mutt, Tumakuru, and Veerasomeshwara Rajadesikendra Shivacharya Swami, Ramabhapuri, at the Royal Gardens, here at 10 a.m. on Friday.

According to Pejawar mutt seer Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swami religious and traditional issues would be focused in the three-day conference. Core issues are Ayodhya, the ban on cattle slaughter and the conservation of Hinduism.

The seer said that as the issue of Ram Mandir is in court, there could be a possibility of the Central government and the Uttar Pradesh government, which is run by BJP, passing a Bill in favour of the temple.

He said, although, the country is in the third position in the export of beef, there is a need to stop cattle slaughter completely, adding that the demand to ban cattle slaughter is not new. It exists since many decades. Even during the Morarji Desai government in 1977, Vinobha Bhave demanded a ban on cow slaughter and held an indefinite hunger strike. However, there are no fruitful results for any of the protests carried out in the past.

He said the seer said that the occasion would be purely the conglomeration of Hindu saints. The seers belonging to Sikh, Buddhist, Jains and Lingayats communities will be attending the conference. Vishwa Hindu Parishat always considers all the 'dharmas' introduced by the seers in the country as a fraction of Hinduism. It is a wonderful occasion to celebrate Hinduism and protect it from the evils of untouchability and conversion, he added.

He said Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will attend the conference. As many as 2,000 saints have been approached. The seer of Siddaganga Mutt Dr Shivakumar Swami will attend the inaugural ceremony.

Meanwhile, the Dharma Samsad organising committee has informed that Union minister Uma Bharati and Sadhvi Niranjana would be participating, while Sri Sri Ravishankar and Manthralaya seer Sri Shubhudendra Theertha will participate from the Day One. VHP leader Praveen Togadia, Ashok Chowgle, Raghav Reddy, Sampath Roy will participate. The 12th Dharma Samsad will be inaugurated on November 24.

The demand to make temple administration free of government control and also problems like population explosion will be discussed. In the 1969 Dharma Samsad, the main agenda was of harmony among various sects and castes in Hinduism. A podium will also be named after Narayana Guru, the seer from backward class.

Hindu Vaibhav, an expo on the various cultural and traditional facts of Hinduism, will be displayed and inaugurated on November 23.

The real issue.The hindu women are left behind because of umatched kundli. There is no job for hindu youngsters. Basic needs are high price. Only upper caste will make speech and lower caste will fight with the public where uppercaste portray the innocents as enemies of the religion. It is so easy for upper caste to make play when people listen to them and ask them to attack the innocent , who doesnt use the god given intellect and logic. The more these people fall into their trap the more they can make U play on their orders... Wake up public go with right and look for the basics in the life for job, food and other useful requirement.

Ballari, Jan 5: Thousands of Muslims, joined by the members of various organisations, on Saturday staged a massive protest in the town condemning the provocative speech by Bellary MLA G Somashekar Reddy.

The police caned the agitators after they tried to lay siege to the house of BJP legislator.

The protesters holding national flag took out a rally from Kaul Bazaar, which passed through the major streets, and culminated at Gadagi Channappa Circle. They raised slogans against the BJP and burnt the effigy of Somashekar Reddy.

The protest sent the traffic haywire Gadagi Channappa Circle and the cascading effect of it was seen across the town. SP C K Babu told the agitators that the MLA has been booked for making provocative speech and pleaded them to hold a protest at Municipal College grounds. But the agitators were in no mood to relent.

Inspector General (Bellary Range) I G Nanjundaswamy has rushed to the town to oversee security. The BJP MLA on Friday made inciting remarks against minorities during his speech at a pro-CAA rally in the town.

FIR against Reddy

The Gandhinagar police in the town on Saturday registered an FIR against MLA Somashekar Reddy, for making a provocative speech, under IPC Sections 153 A (promoting enmity between two religions), 295A (insulting religious beliefs) and 505B.

During his speech at a pro-CAA rally on Friday, Reddy had said, "Hindus are 80% of the population while minorities are 17%. What will happen to you if we hit back? Hence, you should be very careful about your moves and steps."

The legislator came down heavily on those staging protests against CAA in Ballari. "We won't keep quiet if another protest is staged against the CAA. Each Hindu is like Shivaji. Nobody will be alive if all Hindus come out to streets holding swords," he had said.
