Udupi, Nov 26: Even though Vishwa Hindu Parishath international executive president Pravin Togadia had claimed that Udupi’s Dharma Sansad has nothing to do with politics, he made vailed attack against Congress while delivering the keynote address at the massive Hindu Samajotsav organised as a part of the valedictory ceremony of the three-day event here on Sunday.

“The only wish that all Hindus have is that they want to see Ram in the Mandir at Ayodhya. Gandhi topiwalas (Congress) do not understand the sentiments of the Hindus. There will be no negotiation pertaining to construction of the temple. The saints and seers are committed” the hardline leader said. 

Accusing Pakistan of sponsoring terrorism in India, he called for the elimination of the neighbouring country from the world map. “Pakistan should be 'uprooted' as the it is attempting in all possible ways to sponsor terrorism in India,” he said.

Kashmir is an integral part of India, but considering the terrorist activities in the state, it is imperative to  ensure Kashmir remains the crown of the country by eliminating terrorism in the state, he said. 

Lamenting that insulting Hinduism and religious people has become fashionable, Togadia said 'The film Padmavati should be banned. It is an insult to the mothers and sisters of the country'. 

He said that an appeal would be made to the central government and all other  state governments to ban the screening of the film. "Padmavati is an Indian mother. She has made all her sons and daughters proud, she is the symbol of self-esteem for all Indians", the VHP leader added.  He also lauded the state government which banned the screening of the movie.

He maintained that untouchability should be completely eliminated with all temples, wells and crematoria open for all Hindus. He stressed all upper class Hindus to support the Dalits and SC/ST community financially and educationally. "Every Hindu should stand up with self-respect," he added.

Pejawar seer Sri Vishwesha Theertha seer asked the Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah, if he the latter respects Basavanna and his preachings at all. "He should immediately implement ban on cow slaughter in the state," he demanded.

Every Indian should welcome statement of our great Patriot Leader Sir Mutalk ji to eliminate Pakistan from world map.  I hope he and his chelas have started their march towards Border directly from Samajsotsave in Udupi.   We should welcome him and garland him on the way to Border.  Well done sir, please proceed.   All of us are behind you.  You are a great leader and we wish you be next PM of india.   After eleminating Pakistan let us move towards Bangladesh and from there let us move to our another enemy China.

My advice to all these swamijis and seers is to be Indian first and respect people from all the religions and condemn the killers of Father of India.

Tumakuru, Jan 2: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday paid respects to the 'Gadduge' (final resting place) of Shivakumara Swamiji at Siddaganga Math, a prominent Lingayat seminary here, and said the Swamiji's work would continue to inspire everyone.

The Swamiji, who was known as the 'Walking God' among his countless followers, had passed away last year at the age of 111. The Prime Minister, who arrived at the Yelahanka Airbase in Bengaluru, went directly to Tumakuru, where the Math is located, by a chopper along with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, Union Minister Pralhad Joshi and former Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda among others. Modi, after offering respects to the 'Gadduge', planted Bilva plant (Aegle marmelos) on the premises of the Math and also laid the foundation for the construction of a museum dedicated to Swamiji here before addressing the gathering, largely comprising students. Speaking on the occasion, Modi said he was feeling blessed to begin 2020 from the sacred land of Siddaganga, but at the same time was feeling the "vacuum" in the absence of Shivakumara Swamiji. "It is rare see the number of people swamiji had inspired during his life time. I'm really fortunate to lay the foundation for the museum in swamiji's memory. Through this museum, his works will continue to inspire generations," he said. Also, Prime Minister remembered Vishwesha Theertha of Udupi's Pejawar Math who passed away recently. Yediyurappa and the present pontiff of the Math Siddalinga Swamiji were among the others present. Known as "trivida dasohi" for his triple sacraments - food, shelter and education - among his followers, Shivakumara swamiji was considered as the incarnation of Basavanna, the 12th-century social reformer, as he accepted all irrespective of their religion or caste. There has been a growing clamour from people of different walks of life, including politicians, for conferring "Bharat Ratna" on the late Swamiji.

After the Swamiji's demise, the then Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy had written to Modi urging him to confer the country's highest civilian order on the late seer.

Opposition Congress on Thursday questioned the Prime Minister about not conferring the"Bharat Ratna" on Shivakumara Swamiji.

Questioning Modi as to why he did not visit Tumakuru when Shivakumara Swamiji of Siddaganga Math passed away, the principal opposition party in the state assembly in a tweet also sought to know why the seer was not conferred with the Bharat Ratna yet, while pointing out that former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had written a letter in this regard in January 2018.

The present seer of the seminary Siddalinga Swamiji presented Modi a silver statue of Shivakumara Swamiji as a memento.

Varanasi, Jan 20: An FIR has been lodged against unidentified persons for a controversial hoarding near the Varanasi railway station. It is worth mentioning here that Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself is the MP of Varanasi Lok Sabha constituency.

The hoarding near the Englishiya Line crossing read, "Hindu dharma mein ghar vapasi karo... CAA, NRC se chhutkara pao (Get rid of CAA, NRC by converting to Hinduism)".

Inspector Ashutosh Ojha said that the FIR under section 295 A and 505 of IPC has been lodged.

"Investigation has been launched in the case and those involved in putting up the hoarding would be identified soon," he added.

According to sources, a lesser known outfit, Hindu Samaj Party, had placed the hoarding on the busy road.

The outfit's state Vice President Roshan Pandey had made a video viral on social media with his message in which he claimed to have put up the hoarding in response to the protest being staged at Shaheen Bagh, New Delhi.

The hoarding, which also has photographs of some Muslim women wearing saffron pagdi, was removed by the police late Saturday evening.

It came up at a time when Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Union Minister Smriti Irani and other leaders were in Varanasi to address a rally in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act at the Sampurnanand Sanskrit University.

Pandey, along with his supporters, had also tried to stage a sit-in at Lanka to give a call for marching to Shaheen Bagh in Delhi but was prevented by the police.

They were taken in custody and were later released following initial interrogation, said inspector Lanka, Bharat Bhushan.
