Mangaluru, Jul 10: Days before the scheduled release of his much anticipated biography, former Higher Education Minister of Karnataka B A Mohideen passed away in a hospital in Bengaluru today. He was 81.

Born to Abdul Khader and Haleema at Pejawar in Bajpe village in May 1938, Mohideen, joined Congress in 1969 and held various positions in the party before getting elected to Karnataka Legislative Assembly in 1978 from Bantwal assembly constituency in Dakshina Kannada district. However, he was denied party ticket to contest subsequent elections following which he joined Janata Dal in the later days.

Mohideen was a member of the Legislative Council for two terms, from 1990 to 2002. He was the Minister for Higher Education in the J.H. Patel government between 1995 and 1999, when he earned the name of a honest administrator. He rejoined the Congress later. Mohideen, a staunch follower of D Devaraj Urs, was conferred with the Devaraj Urs Award instituted by the State Government in 2016.

Mohideen’s autobiography, Nannolagina Naanu (Me within Me) was to be released shortly. Though he was reluctant to pen down his life, two writers, Muhammed Kulai and B A Muhammad Ali, coaxed him to do so and wrote the book.

As a politician he had sacrificed his life for the people and party. But his party leaders sacrificed him for their selfish gains.

RIP. He was anyway inactive in politics for a long time. But his departure from the active politics was a tragedy. We should not forgive Poojary, Moily, Oscar for cheating this rare politician.

ಮುತ್ಸದ್ದಿ, ಹಿರಿಯ ರಾಜಕಾರಣಿ, ಜಾತ್ಯಾತೀತ ಸಿದ್ದಾಂತದ ಪ್ರಬಲ ಪ್ರತಿಪಾದಕ ಬಿ ಎ ಮೊಯಿದ್ದೀನ್ ರವರ ನಿಧನ ದುಃಖಕರ. ಜಾತ್ಯಾತೀತತೆ, ಪ್ರಾಮಾಣಿಕತೆ, ಸರಳತೆಗಳು ರಾಜಕಾರಣದಲ್ಲಿ, ಸಮಾಜದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಧಾನಕ್ಕೆ ಮರೆಯಾಗುತ್ತಿರುವ ಕಾಲಘಟ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದು ಸಂಕೇತದಂತೆ ನಮ್ಮ ನಡುವೆ ಬದುಕಿದ್ದ ಶ್ರೀಯುತರ ನಿಧನ ನಿಜಕ್ಕೂ ಸಮಾಜಕ್ಕಾದ ಬಹುದೊಡ್ಡ ನಷ್ಟ.
ಓರ್ವ ಉದಾರವಾದಿ  ಮುಸಲ್ಮಾನರಾಗಿದ್ದ ಮೊಯಿದ್ದೀನ್ ರವರು ಇತ್ತೀಚೆಗೆ ಯುವಜನರು ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಮತೀಯವಾದದತ್ತ ಆಕರ್ಷಿತರಾಗುತ್ತಿರುವುದರ ಕುರಿತು ಆತಂಕಿತರಾಗಿದ್ದರು. ಶಿಕ್ಷಣಕ್ಕೆ ಅಪಾರ ಮಹತ್ವ ನೀಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಅವರು ಶೈಕ್ಷಣಿಕವಾಗಿ ಹಿಂದುಳಿದಿದ್ದ ಬ್ಯಾರಿ ಸಮುದಾಯ ಶಿಕ್ಷಣದಲ್ಲಿ ಮುಂದಕ್ಕೆ ಬರಬೇಕು ಎಂಬ ತುಡಿತ ಹೊಂದಿದ್ದರು. ಆ ಕುರಿತು ಪ್ರಾಮಾಣಿಕವಾಗಿ ತನ್ನ ಕೊಡುಗೆ ನೀಡಿದ್ದರು.
dyfi ಸಂಘಟನೆಯ ಹಿತೈಷಿಯಾಗಿ ಯುವಜನ ಚಳುವಳಿಯನ್ನು ಪ್ರೋತ್ಸಾಹಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಬಿ ಎ ಮೊಯಿದ್ದೀನ್ ಅವರ ಅಗಲಿಕಗೆ ಡಿವೈಎಫ್ಐ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸಮಿತಿ ಭಾವಪೂರ್ಣ ಸಂತಾಪ ಸಲ್ಲಿಸುತ್ತದೆ .

Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 26: Sister Lucy Kalappura, one of the nuns who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal, on Saturday claimed that she is being targeted at the convent and not being provided food.

Sister Lucy was dismissed from Franciscan Clarist congregation for supporting sisters protesting against the Bishop.

"I am being targeted at the convent and not being provided food. When I asked the reason, I was told I have been dismissed from the convent and they are not responsible for feeding me," said Sister Lucy while speaking to the reporters.

She has alleged that all this began after the release of her autobiography "Karthavinte Namathil" which means 'In the name of God'. In her book she had alleged sexual misconduct among priests and nuns.

"They prepare food and after having it they lock it in the cupboard. When I asked the reason behind this, they told me that I have been dismissed," said Sister Lucy.

"Now I am managing it all by myself with egg and tapioca that grows in the convent compound. Earlier they used to keep the leftover lunch and I used to adjust with that, but after my book was released, they started to lock the food in the cupboard," she added.

Sister Lucy also claimed that she had filed three complaints with the police on August 19, August 20 and on December 13. They had taken her statement but no action was taken.

"If the police would have taken some action against the convent authorities, they would not have behaved this way. An FIR was registered based on the three complaints but no action was taken. This gives them more power to act against me. I have drafted a letter to the Chief Minister to raise my complaint," said Sister Lucy.

Bishop Mulakkal, a senior member of the Roman Catholic clergy in India, was arrested in 2018 following allegations by a nun that he repeatedly raped and sexually assaulted her at Kuravilangad convent between 2014 and 2016, a charge that he denies.
