Udupi, Nov 24: The three-day Dharma Sansad organized by Vishwa Hindu Parishad was inaugurated on Friday morning in the presence of hundreds of seers and sages from across India. Pejavar mutt seer Sri Vishwesha Thirtha Swami formally inaugurated the event by lighting a lamp.

A Shobha Yatra of sants and sadhus from Rajangana in Sri Krishna Mutt to the convention venue at the Royal Garden near Kalsanka marked the beginning of the event.

RSS Sarsangchalak Mohan Bhagwat, Pejavar Mutt seer Sri Vishwesha Thirtha Swami and Dharmasthala Dharmadhikari Dr. Veerendra Heggade led the Shobha Yatra. Suttur mutt seer Shivarathri Deshikendra Swami and Adichunchanagiri Mutt seer Nirmalanandanatha Swami also took part.

In his address, Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) International Working President, Pravin Togadia, said that the administration of Hindu temples by the government is against the Constitution and an insult to the secular ethos of the country.

He called upon the seers to fight towards freeing government control over temples. “Let the government, which controls temples, try to control a mosque or a church," he said.

He also stressed the need to work out a strategy towards implementation of ban on cow slaughter.

More than 2,000 seers saints and VHP leaders from across the country will take part in the three-day convention, during which the issues like construction of Ram temple, prevention of religious conversions, and cow protection will be discussed.

The convention will culminate with a meeting Samaj Pramukhs from across the state on November 26.

In Masjid, We are coming to worship ALLAH alone without any partners ( Na Tasya pratima Asti)  and there is no money collection Like the hindus, where the temple authorities saying God will help them if they pay such and such amount for different problems. (God doesnt need your money)

 

Islam says if there is a problem, ask with ALLAH (God) alone. There is no intermediate between the CREATOR and the creation. (Money spent in Charity is also a way to keep our problems away). There is no god but ALLAH and Muhammad pbuh is the final messenger of ALLAH. If people dont know the teaching of ISLAM, its very easy to people like BHAGAWAD to play with the minds who are FAR AWAY from the TRUE GOD who is worthy of WORSHIP.

New Delhi, Feb 18: Election strategist-turned-politician Prashant Kishor on Tuesday questioned the Nitish Kumar government's development model, even as he sneered at the chief minister for making ideological compromises to stay in an alliance with the BJP.

Kishor, who has been vocal about his opposition to the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), said Kumar needs to spell out whether he is with the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi or those who support Nathu Ram Godse.

"Nitish ji has always said that he cannot leave the ideals of Gandhi, JP and Lohiya... At the same time, how can he be with the people who support the ideology of Godse? Both cannot go together. If you want to stay with the BJP, I don't have any problem with it but you cannot be on both sides," he said.

"There has been a lot of discussion between me and Nitish-ji on this. He has his thought process and I have mine. There have been differences between him and me that the ideologies of Godse and Gandhi cannot stand together. As the leader of the party you have to say which side you are on," he added.

In a direct assault on Kumar's model of governance, Kishor said Bihar was the poorest state in 2005 and continues to be so.

"There has been development in Bihar during the last 15 years, but the pace has not been as it should have," he added.
