Mangaluru, Sep 1: More than a year after a Hindu youth from Sullia taluk in coastal Karnataka embraced Islam, a group of Hindutva activists on Wednesday staged a protest in his village urging the government and police department to arrest him to find out if he has links with any terror group.

24-year-old Satish Acharya from Mavamjadka in Mandekolu village had accepted Islam on his own will last year in Kerala, where he was working. A certificate issued by Therbiyathul Islam Sabha of Kozhikode on April 15, 2015 stated that Sathish had changed his name to Muhammed Mustakim following his four-month stay at the sabha.

After conversion, he did not break up his relationship with any of the family members and went to mosque from his home without any hesitation. Even though it was an internal matter of his family for one year, recently a few local Hindutva leaders came to know about the about his change of faith and reportedly threatened him.

On Wednesday, August 31, a group of protesters, led by Sangh Parivar activist and former local gram panchayat president Suresh Kanemaradka, gathered in front of the bus stop at Mandekolu village and raised slogans against Muslim organizations that help Hindu youths to accept Islam.

The protesters said that the police should arrest the converted youth and subject him to rigorous interrogation to find out the truth behind the conversion. They claimed that radical groups were luring innocent Hindu men and women in various ways and using them for anti-social activities.

Addressing the protesters, Mr. Kanemaradka said that the way Sathish had changed his religious thoughts had led to fear among the villagers that radical groups may try to influence youths from the village, which was known for communal harmony.

He said that security agencies should considered this conversion case very seriously and conduct a high level probe. He also warned to intensify the protest and make it a national issue if the police failed to take necessary action against all those who played role in his conversion.

Incumbent president of Mandekolu gram panchayat Mohini Chandrashekar said that the fear was more so because the conversion of Sathish had come at a time when youths from Kerala had left their villages allegedly to join the ISIS.

Another Hindutva activist Vinutha Pathikallu said, “It is unfortunate that such a disturbing development has been reported from the village, where both Hindus and Muslims are living in harmony. If the people will opt another religion for the lure of money, it is equal to dishonouring one's mother.”

Former panchayat president Jayaraj Kukketti, Lakshman Ugranemane, BJP Shakti Kendra, Jalsuru unit president Uday Kumar Achar, TP former vice president Mamatha were among the protesters.

Meanwhile, the local police have reportedly confiscated the mobile phone of the converted youth and questioned a few Muslim men who were in touch with him. Sources said that the family members of the youth did not take part in the protest.

Dear Manohar,

Many of my friends converted to islam in Mangalore, long time back and you know wats their opinion is?,,, that we as friends never informed them about islam that's the reason they took long time to converts, now they are very practising Muslims then we,

you know why, brcause we are Muslims by chance, but they by choice!!!, my friend please understand before comment, thats why people are attracting towards this religion and do some homework in sha Allah you will also realise the truth behind ,

that is the reason we have one more life after death where god will decide our destiny to live in heaven or hell, which will be decided by our deeds & actions on this earth,

so if anyone has a good mind will try his best to get heaven in here after, think twice before it too late,

now I informed you the truth don't tell on the day of judgement to the god that no one informed you about this , good luck brother may god bless you and us all.

Dear Manohar whenever you talk about muslims, yoiu point out that they belongs to pakistan. This question you need to ask Advani, Sushma, gujral family whose ancestors are from Pakistan. Did you questioned any time? Do you have the guts to question them? Many of the Hindu families are belong to Pakistan Origin. We trust them without questioning. Then why we look at as pakistani who are born indian? Ravishanakr clearly rasied slogan in favour of pakistan. Did any one question them?Where are you at that time? Sitting in cave? If you are natilaist go and protest.

It is the ignorance of God's knowledge that the cheddis feeded. Cheddis always take a kind person away from God knowledge.
ISLAM is a divine religion and no one can harm it... its a challenge and those who challenged have themselves accepted ISLAM. It is better for them to stay neutral rather than making enemy of ISLAM.
I request the Saffron member ... First Learn what is ISLAM .. it will introduce U to YOUR CREATOR who created U , ME and all that exists...
Dont Play with divine religion.. U will try every effort, U will spend every money, U will use every manpower but in the end U wIll be the LOSER and UNSUCCESSFUL... & bow down to it.......

I believe in ONE GOD ALLAH
Muhammad as my messenger
and ISLAM as my religon...

ISLAM is against terrorism... I dont need to prove that to the cheddis...instead I feel pity they dont know their own CREATOR and fall trap to the LIars and deceivers.

When family members did not take part in protest, then who the hell are they to stage protest.

What ever you plan but ALLAH is the best planner of all.

First of all know what is religion.
If any religion is not just nor contradicting truth, science, then it can not be the real religion. those are called blind faith.

As nobody has contradiction on 1 God, then find which is the right religion.
Be wise to discover it and follow it. And share it honestly with as much as possible. That true religion will never says to harm or spoil relation with others.

Don't think all our ancestors have followed the right faith.
Perhaps some have followed rightly and some were wrong.

When you know the truth, follow the truth.
The GOD has given us brain, use it properly.

IF YOU CANT FOLLOW ATLEAST KEEP QUIET DONT TROUBLE OTHERS, DONT INTERFERE WITH OTHER'S AFFAIRS.

Dear Chaddi team
What is the problem with you people. If anybody accept islam or any other religion what cause you problem. You people are protesting because one hindu population has been decreased. DO not ever try to interfere in one's personal matter. If you dont like islam and muslims do not make trouble to others who is willing to accept islam.
Whole of the world will accept islam soon in sha Allah. That time you people may suicide .

Kalaburagi, Jan 1: Fighting penury and partial blindness in one eye, a 39-year-old part-time Kannada lecturer from Kalaburagi district is set to become a commercial tax officer after cracking the Karnataka Administrative Services.

Ambadas Kamble, from Kotana Hipparaga village in Aland taluk, had to take a three-year gap during his school and college years - one-year break after completing Class VII and two years to clear subjects after he failed in II PU examinations. During those three years, he joined his brothers in masonry work to supplement the family's income.

Sweeping aside all hurdles with grit and determination, Ambadas studied Kannada literature for both undergraduate and postgraduate to land the post of a part-time lecturer in a Kalaburagi college. His father died when he was a child, and mother Chandamma supported her family of six - besides, Ambadas, she has two sons and two daughters - by working in houses in the neighbourhood.

Ambadas said he would like to dedicate his success to his mother, who died in the year 2012. "My mother encouraged me to chase my dream - financial difficulties notwithstanding - and allowed me to spend time in the library when my siblings were busy doing menial jobs to fund my education. I'm grateful to my brothers too," he said.

His two brothers are working as masons in Mumbai, having quit studies midway and deciding to support Ambadas - the first in the family to complete graduation. He did high school at Tadkal village in Aland taluk, and college in Kalaburagi.

The lecturer, who's 40% blind in the right eye, cracked the KAS examinations in his third attempt and stood 706th in the state. He has been selected for first-grade officer's post. Alongside, he's doing PhD in Kannada literature.

When his efforts finally paid off, Ambadas landed four job offers: Hostel warden at Morarji Desai hostel, at an SC/ST hostel, post of a lecturer and the tax officer's post. He picked the fourth to serve the state in right earnest.

Bengaluru, Jul 9: Alarmed over surging COVID-19 cases, the Karnataka government has decided to divide this tech city into containment zones to curb the spread of the pandemic, a state minister said on Thursday.

"The city will be divided into red, orange and yellow zones in commensurate with the number of Covid cases in them for containing the virus spread on war footing," Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister J.C. Madhuswamy told reporters here.

Cabinet ministers representing assembly segments in the city will be in-charge of the zones to ensure the cases are curbed with strict enforcement of lockdown guidelines, especially wearing mask and maintaining social distancing by the people in the confinement areas.

"Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has convened a meeting of ministers, MLAs, MPs and corporators of all the 198 civic wards across the city on Friday to discuss and draw an action plan to contain the pandemic," said Madhuswamy.

With 1,148 positive cases, the city''s Covid tally rose to 12,509 and active to 10,103, while 2,228 were discharged, including 418 on Wednesday, while 177 succumbed to the infection since March 9, with 23 in the last 24 hours.

"The Chief Minister ordered deploying more ambulances in the containment areas where cases have been spiking daily to rush Covid patients to the nearest hospital for immediate treatment," said Madhuswamy.

The city civic corporation -- Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) --has increased the containment zones to 3,181 due to more cases spiking, with southern and western suburbs accounting for most infections.

"The containment zones are concentrated more in the city''s southern and western suburbs. Active cases doubled over the last 8 days and shot up to a whopping 12,509 from 4,555 on June 30," an official said.

Refuting graft charges by opposition Congress leader Siddaramaiah in the purchase of medical equipment for treatment of Covid patients, Madhuswamy said the state government had not spent more than Rs 600 crore so far.

"We are running a government. Not a private office. We will give account. He (Siddaramaiah) is welcome to check the accounts and verify the documents," asserted the minister.

In a related development, the cabinet also approved an ordinance to increase the state contingency fund to Rs 500 crore from Rs 80 crore for the Covid-19 induced economic relief measures announced by the chief minister in June.

Mangaluru, May 19: Officials at the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC) said that Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada along with Kodagu, Chikkamagaluru have been alerted about possible heavy rains.

Dr GS Srinivasa Reddy, Director, KSNDMC, said, “Coastal districts have already been witnessing heavy downpour since Monday morning. This will continue for another two days depending on the cyclonic movement along the east coast.”

Until last evening, Haleyangadi and Surathkal in Dakshina Kannada district had received 83 mm and 82.5 mm of rainfall, respectively. Several other areas in Udupi also witnessed heavy rainfall of about 60 to 70 mm rainfall.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) attributed the rain, which intensified on Monday, to a cyclonic circulation over parts of the Arabian Sea (Comorin area) off the coast of Kerala.

The weather department said the sudden convergence of wind over the peninsular region was due to Super Cyclone Amphan, which is set to barrel into the east coast. The IMD issued an Yellow Alert for coastal Karnataka and Malnad, warning of moderate to heavy rainfall in the next few days.
