communalismMangaluru, Jan 25: Dinesh Amin Mattu, the media advisor to chief minister Siddaramaiah, has said that he condemned communalism cutting across religious and political groups.

Responding to Karnataka BJP spokesperson S Suresh Kumar’s demand for his resignation from the post of CM’s advisor for his remark on recent terror arrests, Mr Mattu said he is ready to quit if the former is ready to leave the communal party (BJP).

Reiterated his impartial approach in opposing communal polarization, Mr Mattu, who is also a former journalist, said that he not only opposed saffron outfits like RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal, but also raised voice against Social democratic Party of India and Popular Front of India.

Expressing pain over youth of Hindu and Muslim communities being attracted towards communalism, he pointed out that not only people like Azhar Mahmoud and Ajmal Kasab, but Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, Swami Aseemanand, Col Purohit and Bhuvit Shetty are also enemies of humanity.

1 clarification,

PFI, SDPI are emerged to defend the communalism of all these RSS, VHP, BJP non-secular groups.

SDPI are definitely a secular minded political party. Getting more popularity amongst Dalits.

As Monu said, there is no comparision of crimes between

I wonder ......some time even secular minded people to show as secular use the comparison of Organizations such as PFI and SDPI to Fascist RSS , VHP and Bajrangdal.......there is no similarity between these ideologies............except organizing power and discipline .....

PFI never raped and killed innocent Indian citizens
PFI never indulged in anti anti national activities
PFI never took law into hands
PFI never wanted an Islamic state in INDIA
PFI always hoisted Indian national flag in all its programs
....etc etc etc

this is so sad to that second time Mr.Mattu used PFI and SDPI as shield to show secular face

Bengaluru, Jun 5: The Karnataka government has asked all its departments and authorities to avoid during all official transactions the nomenclature "Dalit" for members belonging to the Scheduled Castes.

"All the departments and authorities of government of Karnataka are requested that (use of name Dalit) for all official transactions, matters, dealings, certificates, among others," the official circular said.

The Constitutional term Scheduled Caste in English and its appropriate translation in other national languages should alone be used for denoting the persons belonging to the Scheduled Castes/ Scheduled Tribes notified in the presidential orders issued under Article 341 of the Constitution, the circular said.

The circular issued on May 20 notes instructions issued by the Central government in 2018, with reference to the order of the High Court of Madhya Pradesh, Gwalior Bench.

"That the Central government/state government and its functionaries would refrain from using the nomenclature "Dalit" for the members belonging to Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes as the same does not find mentioned in the Constitution or any statute," the order had said.

Pointing out that the Central government had earlier issued instructions that the words "Harijan" and "Girijan" should not be used, the circular said accordingly the Karnataka government also had issued a Government Order in 2010.

Mandya, July 30: BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel on Wednesday said Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa has done a commendable job in tackling the Covid-19 situation and floods and that the question of changing the leadership does not arise.

Karnataka on Wednesday reported 5,503 new cases of Covid-19 and 92 related fatalities, taking the total number of infections to 1,12,504 and the death toll to 2,147.

Speaking to reporters here, Kateel said, "Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi has gone to Delhi to discuss the projects sanctioned to state with the central minister. There is no need to read too much into it."

Replying to a query on graft charges against the BSY government by the Congress, Kateel said, "Congress national president, state unit president are out on bail in graft cases . Why did a Congress leader who calls himself a bande (rock) has approached court seeking stay on CBI probe? Before making any allegations against the government, they should think about 'irregularities' in Indira Canteen and housing schemes," he charged.

Instead of instilling confidence and hope among the people in these testing times, the Congress is unnecessarily creating fear with petty politics, he told reporters in Shravanabelagola, Hassan district.

"The Yediyurappa-led BJP government is working day and night to tackle the Covid-19. Similarly, several non-governmental organisations have joined hands with the government in the fight against the virus. But, the Congress is only creating confusion by issuing baseless statements," Kateel said.
