Udupi, Jul 26: Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt has warned that separation of Veerashaiva-Lingayat community from the Hindu dharma will be a loss for both Hindus and Lingayats.Pejawar seer

“State government has not submitted any proposal to the Union government on the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community becoming a religion. There was only discussion going on this matter. If there is division in the Hindu community, it will be a loss for both,” the seer told media persons here.

He also said that he had given his suggestion that the Lingayats should not get divided and leave the fold of Hindu community, because of his affection for the former.

“I do not want any division within the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community or in the Hindu community,” he said.

Another reason for giving the suggestion was because of the trust and cordial relations he had with the seers of the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community. “Nobody should misunderstand my suggestion,” he said.

Lingayats have come one step closer to the Creator and we must congratulate them. One day they all realise the True God, May God guide them to the Right Path.

Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 3: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Friday wrote letters to 11 Chief Ministers including Arvind Kejriwal--Delhi and Mamata Banerjee, West Bengal-- pointing out apprehensions that had arisen among large sections of society consequent to the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) - 2019.

In his letter, the Chief Minister said "the need of the hour is unity among all Indians who wish to protect and preserve our cherished values of democracy and secularism."

People from various cross-sections of the society irrespective of any difference they might have, need to stand united in preserving the basic tenets of our polity which form the cornerstone of Indian democracy, he added.

"We are sure that our unity in diversity, which has stood the test of times will ultimately emerge stronger. Kerala has decided to address the apprehensions about NRC and that preparation of NPR will lead to NRC by staying all activities relating to NPR in the State," Mr Vijayan said.

In this regard, the Kerala Legislative Assembly had passed the resolution on December 31, 2019, expressing its concern regarding the impact the CAA will have on the nation's secular credentials, he said.

"The resolution requested the Central Government to repeal the CAA, 2019. States, which have the opinion that CAA should be repealed can also consider similar steps so that it will be an eye-opener to the proponents of the CAA and the NRC," the Chief Minister pointed out.
