Hubballi, Dec 20: Hindutva workers hold flags in their hands and not talwars (swords) because they have great faith in the police department, said senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Raghunandan.

Addressing a protest meeting organised by Hindu Hitarakshana Samiti here, condemning the murder a few murders the state, he said: “If the police had not performed their duties promptly, the Hindus would have taken up swords in their hand.

"Police have lathi to protect people, and therefore, we have not picked up stones. If police continue to be mere followers of the anti-Hindu Congress government, people will lose faith in them," he said adding that if the faith of Hindus in police department vanishes, then no police or anti-nationals will remain here.

“Hindus should use their voting power and law to fight against the efforts to suppress Hindus and patriots. Murder of pro-Hindu activists will not stop our struggle and Hindus will use physical force as the last option,” said Raghunandan, who is the south central zone convener of 'Pragnya Pravaha'.

He said SFI and AIDSO were promoting Naxalism in the name of students' movements.

RSS is anti national and terrorist organisatin and they hold gun from first day.  Their first target was Bapuji.  However, they are not ashamed on this barbaric killing and instead worshipping the killer as God.  What elese we can expect from these hate mongers.  They are not patriot to our nation and dont respect fellow citizens.  They collaborated with British pre indipendence days.  Not a single person from sangh parivar sacrificed his life for indian independnce.   Its shame that they are portraiting themselves as the most patriots.   They hoisted Pak flag in Karnataka couple of years back.

Bengaluru, Feb 28: Historian S. Shettar, 85, breathed his last early on February 28 in Bengaluru. He was suffering from respiratory problems and was hospitalised for over a week.

Shettar was known for his multi-disciplinary work, encompassing linguistics, epigraphy, anthropology, the study of religions and art history. He had extensively worked on the Jain practice of ritual death in Karnataka and Asoka edicts. He had studied and compiled early edicts in Kannada and worked extensively on the growth of Kannada language down the ages.

Born in 1935 at Hampasagara, Ballari district, he went on to study at Cambridge University and started his career as a Professor of History at Karnatak University, Dharwad, his alma mater. He later headed the National Museum Institute of the History of Art, Conservation and Museology in 1978 and Indian Council for Historical Research in 1996. He was also a visiting professor at the National Institute of Advanced Studies, Bengaluru.

In the last two decades, he developed a keen interest in linguistics and wrote multiple books on classical Kannada and Prakrit. His 2007 book “Shangam Tamilagam” is considered a seminal work in the study of the early period of Dravidian languages. It won him Bhasha Samman from Central Sahitya Akademi. He later wrote two works on Halegannada, classical Kannada. His most recent work was “Prakrita Jagadvalaya” in 2018.

Jan 31: A bunch of fishermen in Kerala is being praised for releasing an endangered shark back into water. A video posted on Twitter shows the fishermen releasing the whale shark that was trapped in their nets back into the sea.

The video was posted on Twitter by InSeason Fish - a group working towards environmental conservation, sustainable fisheries and healthy oceans. Filmed in Kerala's Kozhikode, it shows fishermen on a fishing vessel with the huge whale shark.

Whale sharks are the largest fish in the ocean and can reach up to 40 feet in length. Distinguished by their white spots, this shark is on International Union for Conservation of Nature's list of endangered species.

In the video, at least seven fishermen are seen working together to lift the thrashing whale shark up with the help of ropes and releasing it into the water.
