The idea behind the event was to get Mangalurean mothers off the virtual world of Facebook and encourage them to meet in real, so that they can have a meaningful and personal connection. The guest speaker was Mrs Irol Pais, wife of renowned doctor Dr. Christopher Pais who shared her views on motherhood and parenting with the audience.

MOM also encouraged other mommies to meet up and carry on the vision of the group of a more integrated and united Mangaluru. The meet also included a session on mommies getting to know each other, followed by fun games for the kids. Gifts for the children were sponsored by Octaplus medical app, Ortho1 speciality clinic and Baby Choice.

MOM is a non profit, non religious and non political group. As a part of the group's initiative, it has a panel of doctors who are selflessly responding to queries from the members. A Nutritionist, health support groups, lactation specialist, baby food recipes from experienced chefs, contests, mass child immunization reminders, daily parenting tips, women health tips published by our doctors, Mompreneur Mondays (forum for Mothers to display their entrepreneurial skills via posts on their businesses) are some other initiatives of the group.

Further, through their thoughtful members, they have contributed Rs 29,500 to the Chennai flood relief funds. With many more initiatives in the works, the group’s aim is to only make Mangaluru a better city for the future through its people, mostly through its mothers.

Hi Everybody... I am one of the members of this group. I see there are a few things that we need to clarify . This is not an \ELITIST\" group.We could entertain only the first 30 requests.. We also encourage mothers to have their own meet ups. We have thousands of mothers in the group from different back grounds who are utilizing the selfless services provided by many of the mothers in our region. There is no bar from joining this group based on cast religion economic standards or any other parameter . Our sincere belief is that mothers can and have been making a change in this world and we want to facilitate this in our home in a more evident way, ie Coastal Karnataka. There are a lot of well wishers in our region who do a lot of charitable acts. But unless we personally see it we dont get involved or motivated enough to carry on such acts .Getting people to our roots before the advent of social media of meeting each other, talking to each other to get more connected and have a personal and human touch is one of the ways to a more integrated and understanding society . Please let us now if you have more queries."

A man asked Prophet Muhammad pbuh who is more entitled to be treated with best companionship by Me?
The Prophet pbuh said \Your MOTHER\"
The man asked again who next?
The prophet pbuh said \"Your MOTHER\"
Then he asked again who next?
The Propeht pbuh said \"Your MOTHER\"
The man asked for the Fourth time \"Who is next?\"
The Prophet pbuh said \"Your Father\"
If the mothers did not read about prophet muhammad pbuh - They are missing a lot in this life."

Newsroom, Jan 24: BJP leader and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje has been booked by Kerala police over a misleading and communally provocative social media post.

Karandlaje had tweeted that that Hindus from a colony in Kuttipuram in Malappuram district were denied water supply as they supported the the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). 

"Kerala is taking baby steps to become another Kashmir. Hindus of Kuttipuram Panchayat of Malappuram was denied water supply as they supported #CAA2019. #SevaBharati has been supplying water ever since. Will Lutyens telecast this intolerance of PEACEFULS frm God's Own Country!?," she tweeted. 

A case has been booked under section 153(A) of IPC (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race etc). Karandlaje took to Twitter to slam the Kerala government, and said it had lodged a complaint against her instead of acting against the discrimination faced by dalit families of Cherukunnu. 

"It is high time the society unites against these pressure tactics of a non-performing, biased left government," she said. 

Karandlaje claimed that the CAA had been accepted by both houses of Parliament and people supporting the Act were facing boycott in business and were being denied basic amenities and jobs. "The CPI(M) government is blind to all these incidents across Kerala, but files a case against me for speaking the truth!" she retorted.

According to reportage from multiple outlets, the colony in Malappuram district's Kuttippuram was dependent on a private individual for water; then came accusations that they were denied the water for attending BJP's pro-CAA rally. 

A resident of the colony was quoted by a newspaper, “We were denied drinking water because our husbands participated in a meeting organised to gather support for the CAA. Some people told the family that they should not give drinking water to us because CAA is a threat to the people in their community.” 

However, the individual in question denied the accusation, claiming a lack of water because of technical issues.

The case was registered after a complaint by lawyer Subhash Chandran, a resident of Malappuram. Aravindan E.A., SI of Kuttippuram police, said, "From a private person's borewell, water was being provided to the people of the colony. This motor had taken for agricultural work and he was recently issued a warning by State Electricity Board. He was told that if he uses the motor for any other purpose, power supply would be disconnected. He then had stopped using the pump following the crisis worsened.”
