Hindu Mahasabha performs Yagna in memory of terrorist Godse who killed Gandhi

Indor, Nov 16: Akhil Bhartiya Hindu Mahasabha leaders on Wednesday organized a special yagna in memory saffron terrorist Nathuram Godse who assassinated Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation and symbol of non violence.

The Mahasabha members gathered at Arya Samaj temple on jail road early in the morning and 'paid tributes' to Godse to commemorate his death anniversary.

Mahasabha state general secretary Jitendra Singh Thakur said the day was celebrated as 'Balidan Diwas' to commemorate the “martyrdom” of Godse. "It is an attempt to expose the minority appeasement policy that was instigated by Gandhi," he said.

Thakur claimed that it was under pressure of Gandhi that Pakistan was carved out of India. Today, the neighbouring nation is conspiring against us, he alleged.

The event evoked strong reaction from the Congress camp, which claimed that the yagna in the name of a terrorist exposes the true face of Hindutva organisations.

"Gandhiji had always preached non-violence. He got us freedom. Believers of twisted ideology assassinated him," Congress local leader Pramod Tandon told reporters.

People believing in the same ideology have now surfaced during the BJP rule and are showing their true colours by describing the day as Balidan Diwas, he said adding people understand their antics and will give a befitting reply.

Bengaluru, Jul 30: As the protest by Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers entered the 20th day, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday assured them that he would take up their demands with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The ASHA workers are sitting in protests with a number of demands that include a minimum salary of Rs 12,000 per month.

Assuring that their matter will be taken up, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu said while speaking to reporters, "We know how hard ASHA workers have been working as frontline warriors in the fight against COVID-19. I will discuss with CM about their demand for a minimum wage of Rs 12,000 per month and the final decision will be taken soon."

"We went to the police to allow us to protest. Officials then took us to the CM. During the meeting, he demanded some time to sort out our issues. 

We told him we are protesting for the past 20 days and that it was he who needs to call a meeting with us. Only then will he know the problems being faced by ASHA workers," an ASHA worker said clad in her signature pink sari.

"When asked as to why salaries of ASHA workers were not hiked, while it was done for doctors and other healthcare officials, the CM requested for time to look into the matter. 

We are not much happy now, but will if he comes in front of the media and promises to sort out our issues, then we will listen to him", she added.
