October 10, 2016

Mangaluru, Oct 10: Mangaluru city police have reportedly detained a non-Indian resident in connection with the case of derogatory Facebook posts about Sri Durga Parameshwari of Kateel and other Hindu deities.

facebookpost According to sources, Shafi Bellare, a native of Sullia, is currently in custody of Mangaluru North Police, who are questioning him in connection with the case.

The derogatory comments against the Hindu goddess were posted on Facebook in October 2015 and were widely circulated. The Bantwal police registered a suo motu case a couple of months ago that was followed by a case registered by the Mangaluru North police.

The main accused of the Facebook fake profile 'Jabbar BC Road', hailing from Dakshina Kannada, is said to be operating from the Gulf. Shaffi Bellare, who was also in Gulf had reportedly responded to his post.

Sources said that a lookout notice had been issued for Shafi Bellare's arrest. As soon as he reached Mangaluru International Airport on Sunday from Bahrain, he was taken into custody and handed over to Mangaluru North Police.

Inspector Shantaram said that the suspect is still being questioned. DCP (Crime and Traffic) Dr Sanjeev M Patil, however, refused to confirm the development.

Please make correction. If makes lots of difference. NRI stands for non resident Indian.

Should not make fun of others......rather than discussing in a respected manner.....

Before making fun of others..see the mirror. The world is laughing at you pissfuls.

As a Muslim i oppose any insult to other religion person or GOD....ISLAM Teaches the same ....ALLAH is highest and almighty ....so if we Muslims insult other religion then they might insult the almighty ...so spare ourselves from insulting anyone

Actually he was not arrested ...instead he himself wanted to meet police and give clarification about the same

There are so many anti Muslim Facebook pages that not only makes mockery of Muslim Faith but also encourages violence against Muslims. Why aren't the police taking that as suo moto? I thought police protected interests of all people.

Changing Ramanagara's name an insult to Sri Rama: HDK

News Network

January 5,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 5: Lambasting Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa over the proposal to rename Ramanagara as Nava Bengaluru, former chief minister H D Kumaraswamy on Sunday said that such a move will be an insult to Lord Ram, after whom the district is named.

In a series of tweets, Kumaraswamy accused that renaming the district was a pretext to sell its fertile irrigated land to capitalists. Yediyurappa also wants to settle a score with me by renaming it, he alleged

"If Yediyurappa wishes to develop Ramanagara, he should release the funds allocated in the budget. If you want to develop it further, you will find support from me and my people. But, don't set fire to the districts' culture and identity by changing its name," he tweeted.

No Proposal onboard to rename Ramanagaram district says CM

News Network

January 6,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 6: There is a wide spread criticism by the Janata Dal(S) and Congress leaders over a proposal to rename Ramanagaram district as New (Nava) Bengaluru, Karnataka Chief Minister CM Yediyurappa said on Monday.

“An unnecessary discussion on renaming Ramanagaram is under way. There is no thought before the government over renaming," The CM accused the Congress and JD(S) leaders of indulging in baseless discussion to mislead the people and to remain relevant. "There is no such agenda before the government. It is a joke that JD(S) and Congress leaders are starting a fight over it.”

The Chief Minister’s clarification came after criticism by former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, who carved out the Ramanagaram district when he was Chief Minister, and former Minister DK Shivakumar whose Kanakapura constituency is in Ramanagaram district, after Deputy Chief Minister CN Ashwath Narayan said Ramanagaram could be renamed as Nava Bengaluru to increase investments prospects.
