Mandya, Apr 12: A group of extremists claiming to be “saviors” of Hinduism staged a protest here on Tuesday, opposing a Hindu family's decision to get their daughter married to a Muslim man, calling it an act of "love jihad".youh

The protesters shouted slogans of 'love jihad' outside the girl's house, while alleging that religious conversion was happening in the name of love and marriage.

The duo, both MBA graduates and whose fathers were childhood friends, have been in love with each other for the last 12 years and are scheduled to get married soon in Mysuru with consent of both their families, according to members of both families.

Alleging that "love jihad" cases are on rise, one of the protesters demanded to know why the girl was being trained on Islamic practices and Quran if it was a true love marriage. The protesters left the place only after police intervened.

Rejecting the protesters' charges, the girl said, "Even if I get married to a Hindu guy, I have to practise traditions of his family. I'm in love with him and I'm getting happily married with the consent of our parents." Her father Dr Narendra Babu, a paediatrician, said his daughter's happiness was "more" important to him and religion does not matter at all.

"We have never given importance to religion or caste. We did not know about it. They were in love for last 12 years. First even I thought it would be difficult as the guy is a Muslim, but later I learnt he is the son of my childhood friend. They are good people," he said.

The boy's father Mukhtar Ahmed said there are no differences between the families on the issue of religion and the family has happily consented to the marriage.

"The girl and boy both are not uneducated, they are MBA graduates. The girl has been abroad also. There is nothing called love jihad. They both were in love and now they are getting married with our consent and blessings," he said.

There is no compulsion in religion - Nobody is FORCING HER. That is the TRUTH our ISLAM teaches.

Come on Cheddis : Before U protest without knowledge. U too try to read QURAN. there is a special message to YOU guys, who R trying to make troubles in the society. But there is also forgiveness too for those who repent.
Y dont U read QURAN? When U read, U will come to know Y U guys are there in aggression... and anger without TRUE knowledge of any incident...

Parents of both families agreed, Constitution agrees, but Sanghi goons who are anti-constitution have problems. We Muslims know that there is no such thing as love-jihad in Islam and none of the Muslims ever practice such an immorality in the name of Islam to cause trouble. Neither do sensible Hindus.

May Allah Safeguard the couple and guide them.
BTW, It is Haram for Muslim Man to marry a Polytheist. Hope the boy and his family knows this too.

Bengaluru, Jul 31: The Karnataka government on Wednesday put on hold a controversial proposal to drop certain chapters, including on Islam, Christianity, Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali, from social science textbooks to reduce the 2020-21 syllabi for students in classes 1-10.

Citing the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruption caused to the academic calendar of the year, the government had earlier dropped the chapter on Tipu Sultan and Hyder Ali from the Class 7 social science textbook, saying chapters on Tipu Sultan have been retained in the Class 6 and 10 textbooks.

The move did not go down well with the opposition, which saw certain ulterior motives behind the decision.

Apparently under sharp criticism, the Department of Public Instruction issued a new notification on Wednesday "on the directions of the Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar".

There is a delay in opening the schools during the academic year 2020-21 due to COVID-19 pandemic, said the latest order.

In this context, the order said, chapters were dropped to fit in 120 days of the academic year for classes 1 to 10 and the same was published in the department's website.

"However, on the directions of the Minister for Primary and Secondary Education, the decision to drop certain chapters has been put on hold. A review will be done following which the deleted chapters will be uploaded in the website," the order read.

Earlier in the day, Mr Kumar had issued a statement, saying that the decision to truncate the syllabus has not been finalised yet. He also made it clear that his department would not remove chapters unnecessarily.

Former chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah had attacked the government on the issue.

"The government, which has failed to control the spread of coronavirus, is using it as an opportunity to push its clandestine agenda of saffronising the textbooks," Siddaramaiah tweeted.

Bengaluru, May 2: JDS leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy accused the Mandya district administration of the surge in COVID-19 cases in the district and not quarantining 7,000 labourers who arrived here from Mumbai.

"As we know that 16,000 labourers from Mandya were working in Mumbai, out of which 7,000 people have arrived in the district. However, none of them was quarantined properly which is a violation of COVID-19 lockdown," Kumaraswamy told reporters here on Friday.

He claimed the district administration has shown "gross negligence" in their duty in following the procedure of COVID-19 as "one COVID-19 patient's dead body which was brought here from Mumbai has led to more cases in the district and those who accompanied the body have also tested positive for the virus."

Kumaraswamy appealed to the state government to strictly maintain lockdown norms and do not allow any relaxations in view of the rise in COVID-19 cases, stating that "any kind of relaxation could lead to a huge disaster."
