January 22, 2016

Bengaluru, Jan 22: In a statewide swoop, at least six persons including an engineering student from Mangaluru have been apprehended by security agencies in different parts of Karnataka on terror suspicion.

ats Besides Mangaluru, the detentions took place in Bengaluru and Tumkur districts, on the intervening night of Thursday and Friday.

Highly placed sources said that that separate teams of National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Anti Terror Squad carried out the operation in different parts of Karnataka simultaneously.

The crackdown comes days after the arrest of a madrasa teacher from Bengaluru on suspicion of terror links, and office of the Consulate General of France received a threat letter against French President Francois Hollande's proposed visit to India on the occasion of the Republic Day.

"I have been informed that NIA and State Police have arrested six suspected terrorists in the state. Interrogation and gathering of information from them is still going on," Parameshwara told reporters here.

He said among those arrested four were from Bengaluru, one from Tumkuru and one was from Hubballi.

"This is what I have been told. I am yet to get details on this, after getting information I will share what can be shared," the Minister said.

Asked whether the state police were aware that arrests would be made, Parameshwara said NIA in coordination with the state police conduct such operations.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said separately, "Arrest will be made by NIA, they won't inform or discuss with us." Meanwhile, Bengaluru Police Commissioner N S Megharik said, "We were kept in the loop by the NIA (about the arrests in Bengaluru).It is not a joint operation."

August 2,2020

Mangaluru/Udupi, Aug 2: The twin coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi witnessed sporadic movement of vehicles and relatively less commercial activities today in spite of the withdrawal of ‘Sunday lockdown’ by the state government.

After the central government announced guidelines under Unlock 3.0, the Karnataka government has removed the complete lockdown concept on Sundays and done away with the night curfews too. So from today (August 2), there will be no lockdown on Sundays.

KSRTC operated its buses as usually. However, compared to other days, today the number of private and city buses on the roads in Dakshina Kannada was limited.

In Udupi, city buses remained off the roads as the number of passengers was less. However, KSRTC and NARM buses were seen transporting passengers.

In containment zones ban on movement of people will continue till August 31 in Udupi. The Santhekatte market used to function on Saturdays, as there was Sunday lockdown on earlier Sundays. Now the market will be open on Sundays only.

Vatican rejects second appeal of Kerala nun against her expulsion from congregation

News Network

March 2,2020

Kochi, Mar 2: The Vatican has rejected the second appeal by Sister Lucy Kalappura -- one of the nuns who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal -- against her expulsion from Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC).

In her plea, she had demanded that her version be heard and her expulsion from FCC revoked.

She was expelled from FCC for participating in public protests demanding the arrest of Franco Mulakkal in the nun rape case.

''I got a letter from Vatican which says my appeal has been rejected. But the rest of the letter is written in the Latin language. So after I understand it, I will respond," Sister Lucy told news agency.

''The authorities are contemptuous of those who make such complaints. That is why the letter is written in Latin. Sister Lucy would continue her legal fight in the courts,'' said George Moolechalil, who has been authorised by Sister Lucy to communicate with the media on her behalf.

A petition of Sister Lucy is still pending at Mananthavady Munsif Court at Wayanad that demands that she should not be expelled from the convent where she is staying.

Religious issues should be resolved within the guidelines of devine laws.

Unfortunately the Chrisitianity is no more in its originality.

The holy bible has been systematically abused and edited to the benefits of rulers.

The book has been contaminated with lots of editions.

People should search for truth and follow it.

Example, the religion never told to remain unmarried for priests or nuns.

They go against its teaching inveting their own idea against God's teaching.

Vatican is a corporate person.
