Udupi, Oct 12: Members of the Hindu Jagrana Vedike (HJV) and the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) staged a dharna in front of the Deputy Commissioner’s office here on Wednesday against what they termed as “anti-Hindu” policies of the Congress-led State government and against the arrest of leaders and activists of Hindutva groups.

In a memorandum addressed to the Governor and submitted at the Deputy Commissioner’s office, these organisations said that the State government, led by the Congress, was obstructing the social and religious activities of the majority Hindu community. It was forcing the police to arrest innocent activists of the Hindutva groups.

There was an undeclared Emergency in the coastal districts. There were systematic attempts to snatch the rights of the Hindus. The government had placed restrictions on Jagadish Karanth, Regional Organising Secretary of Hindu Jagrana Vedike, from attending Hindu conventions.

The activists of the Hindutva groups were prevented by the personnel of police and forest departments from purifying the statue of Deyi Baideti, the mother of the legendary heroes of Tulu Nadu, Koti-Chennayya, which had been earlier defiled in Dakshina Kannada district. This was nothing but an assault on the democratic rights of the citizens.

B. Ramanath Rai, Minister for Forests and Environment, had openly directed the police to foist cases against RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat and get him arrested. The police had raided the houses of leaders of pro-Hindu groups who had tried to stop untoward incidents during the funeral procession of the RSS worker, Sharath Madivala, who was murdered in Dakshina Kannada recently. Instead of taking action against cow slaughterers, the government was targeting cow protectors, the memorandum said.

Bunch of jobless jokers with only 1 lady. I can see only 23 jokers. Might be all of your members left your organization.

If you advocate HINDUTWA for the whole country by force, then you are not INNOCENT.

You are committing attrocities, you can be criminal.

If you want true Hindu, then preach its ideology, but dont force it on others.

First yourself Follow what is in the Geetha. set an example. Your example is better than preaching.

Then preach others.

Mangaluru, Jun 13: Around people from Bhatkal, who were stranded in United Arab Emirates due to months of covid lockdown, finally reached their hometown today. A charter flight carrying these passengers took from the Ras Al Khaimah International Airport at 11:20 PM (UAE time) yesterday and landed at Mangaluru International Airport at 4.20 am today.

After completing all the formalities, they were taken to Bhatkal in five buses arranged by Bhatkali Jamaatul Muslimeen, Mangaluru. Two hotels and a college hostel have been booked for the institutional quarantine of the returnees.

The passengers were received at the airport by Majlis E Islah wa Tanzeem executive members, Bhatkali Jamaat Ul Muslimeen executive members, and Bhatkal Muslim Youth Federation executive members.

Ateequr Rahman Muniri, vice president of Majlis-e-Islah wa Tanzeem and owner of UAE based Nuha General Trading LLC, had taken the initiative of sending stranded citizens of Bhatkal and surrounding regions to back home from UAE.

“After we came to know about the problems of the NRIs stranded in UAE plans were made to charter flights to send them home. I received huge support from the Bhatkal community leaders and youth here in Dubai, who gave their complete cooperation and helped with their efforts in successfully chartering the first flight," Muniri said.

Bengaluru gym owners gear up to reopen after 5-month hiatus

News Network

July 31,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 31: Gyms in Bengaluru carried out sanitation work on Thursday following the Centre's nod to reopen gyms from August 5, after several weeks of COVID-induced lockdowns.

"We are taking all the precautionary measures prescribed by the government and will follow the guidelines very strictly. A thermal scanner, oximeter and hand sanitizers have been placed at the entrance of the gym.

We request all other gym owners also to follow the guidelines strictly to keep their members safe and healthy," said Prasad Kumar, a gym owner in Bangalore.

He added, "The last few months have been very difficult for us gym owners and fitness instructors. We are very grateful to the government for allowing us to re-open.

We are going to be very cautious when we open. Even before this COVID-19 pandemic, we used to sanitise all the equipment before and after every use so hopefully, this won't be too difficult for us. We are getting rid of the air conditioners to allow cross ventilation and open the space a little more."

According to Chandu Gowda, an actor and frequenter of the gym, working out at home was not the same as working out in the gym with the proper equipment.

"I'm very glad that I get to come back and work out as I used to before this lockdown. For an actor, working out is extremely important, not just for my physical health but also mental health.

Doing exercises at home is never as good as exercising in a space dedicated to one purpose. I hope other members of the gym follow the rules and regulations religiously," Gowda said.

Mangaluru: No mad rush after lockdown relaxation; people line up in front of liquor shops

May 4,2020

Mangaluru, May 4: No major crowds were seen in the coastal city of Mangaluru today except in front of the liquor shops after the district administration relaxed the lockdown norms for 12 hours a day (between 7am and 7pm).

There was no mad rush of vehicles either on city roads when the relaxed lockdown began. There were fewer people to buy essentials in front of grocery and vegetable shops as they had time till late evening.

There was no let down in the number of police pickets as well as curbs on vehicular movement across the city either.

The government has allowed sale of liquor in CL2 (standalone wine shops) and CL 11 (MSIL outlets) to mop up revenues when Lockdown-3 commenced from Monday. Compared the other parts of Karnataka, the size of queues in front of liquor shops in Mangaluru were smaller.

Like other parts of the country, the lockdown was imposed in the coastal district on March 24 to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Prior to that, a curfew was imposed in the district from March 22 midnight. The lockdown did not apply to essential services such as sale of food, groceries, milk, vegetables, fruits, and meat and fish. Gradually the district administration had to intensify the lockdown and allow those shops to remain open only between 7 a.m. and 12 noon.

With the lockdown relaxation extending till 7 p.m., Mangaluru today witnessed people and private vehicles moving freely in the afternoon for the first time in more than a month. However, only those who had to go for work and do other essential activities were seen on roads. After 7 p.m. movements of all kinds of vehicles will be prohibited.

The relaxation was to facilitate economic activities that had come to a standstill during the first two phases of lockdown. Mangaluru City Police Commissioner Dr P S Harsha, meanwhile, warned the people against misusing lockdown relaxation and venturing out without any genuine reason.
