Hubballi, Feb 18: Four activists of Popular Front of India were taken into preventive custody and later released by the sleuths of Kasaba Peth police station in Hubballi after they tried to hoist the PFI flag without permission yesterday.

According to Deputy Commissioner of Police Ravindra Gadadi, on Saturday some PFI members had approached police seeking permission to celebrate the PFI foundation day and take out a procession on Sunday, but the police denied them.

However, on Sunday some youth tried to hoist the PFI flag, following which the police took them into preventive custody. The police have identified them as Vasim Ahmed, Mohamad Ali, Saiyyad Safi, and Riyaz Ahmad.

Popular Front Day was celebrated all over India on 17th Feb marking the 12th anniversary of its launching as a national organization.

This is the undemocratic step taken by police

Why is this discrimination. Why police did not permit peaceful function. Will they do the same with sangh parivar? I dont think so. Sangh parivar is even allowed to hoist pak flag to blame others.

Mangaluru, Jul 12: The Expert Committee set up by the District authorities to inquire into death due to Covid-19 in Dakshina Kannada district declared that the death was due to patients late reporting to the hospitals and severe co-morbidities.

From what we have observed, the mortality was among patients who reported late to hospitals.

Moon sighting for the start of the month of Ramazan, for end of fastings- Eidul Fitr, for the month of Hajj and Muharram:

The moon sighting is so easy. We the people of India and have Indian Standard Time all.over India.

When we can accept the moon sighting in Delhi and announcement from Delhi as it was during times of Radio and Doordarshan news, why can we not accept the sighting of moon in coastal region of Karnataka and in Kerala?

Let us bring about change for good.

Why is rest of Karnataka or India not joining for Eid with coastal region and kerala? At the time of Radio and Dorrdarshan only days, all of India used to wait for 8.00 pm news for updates of moon sighting. So why not accept the moon signing witnesses in Kerala or coastal region?

I request all Indians to accept the witnessing of Moon sighting in any area of India and start and end Fasting.

February 24,2020

New Delhi, Feb 24: India has deeply appreciated the Senegal government's decision to extradite fugitive gangster Ravi Poojary to India, official sources said on Sunday.

Facilitation of transit provided by the Government of France has also been acknowledged, they said.

Ravi Prakash Poojary, accused of committing a number of serious offences including murder and extortion in multiple jurisdictions, was extradited from Senegal on Saturday.

The probe agencies have persistently pursued the case for his extradition with the authorities in Senegal. India had made a request with Senegal for his extradition in early 2019, sources said.

Poojary was associated with gangster Chhota Rajan, but he also worked for fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.
