Udupi, Jul 9: Expressing frustration over the recent demand by a section of ‘progressive thinkers’ to disassociate himself from Ram Janmabhoomi movement, Paryaya Pejawar Mutt seer Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swami said that Ram Mandir is the right of Hindus and it is impossible to give away the land to construct a mosque.pejawar

Speaking to media persons here, the seer, however, clarified that he did not envisage the country as purely the land of Hindus. “India belongs to all Indians and not for any particular community or religion,” he said.

The seer said Ram Mandir will be built at Sri Ram Janmabhoomi site as inscriptions prove the existence of temple on the spot. But consensus on the issue cannot be achieved through violence, he said.

Lamenting that progressive thinkers insist on achieving harmony at the cost of right, the seer said, “Is it possible to give away Kashmir to Pakistan for peace and prevent violence? Let the progressive thinkers reconsider their opinion by working out possibilities. Kashmir is India’s right. Similarly, Ram Mandir is the right of Hindus. The privilege of secularism should have limitations.” 

Earlier this week, Karnataka Komu Sauharda Vedike leader G Rajashekhar had challenged the seer to quit the leadership of the committee that works on Sri Ram Janmabhoomi and also oppose the idea of Hindu nation for India.

Speaking at a protest rally organised by Solidarity Youth Movement on communal terrorism, Rajashekhar said that the seer has done a commendable work by organising Iftar party to Muslims. But the seer should not forget that he is even now seen as the leader of Hindu community and he has to get rid of the image he has already developed being part of fanatical movement conceptualised by the hard core Hindu fundamentalists, he urged.

If protecting cow is holy act for you then eating beef is holy act for us. RSS is in total delusion of owning franchise of Indian nationalism. This idiot (EVM master) took a month to understand human life is precious.

Fed up of everyone calling muslims as terrorist...now its a Hindu..

Terrorism is not based on religion.. All religions teaches peace.. a terrorist may belong to a religion but his religion is Not a Terrorist religion.

Bengaluru, Jun 7: Suspense over JD(S) patriarch HD Deve Gowda contesting the Rajya Sabha polls from Karnataka with Congress' support continues as KPCC president D K Shivakumar on Saturday said the party has fielded one candidate and the high command will decide on what do with surplus votes.

Mr Shivakumar also said his official takeover as party state unit president is likely to take place on June 14.

"Whatever our national leadership will decide... For now we are fielding only one candidate, regarding surplus votes whatever our high command says, we will abide by it," he said in response to a question about supporting Deve Gowda.

Polls for four Rajya Sabha seats from Karnataka is scheduled for June 19.

The Congress, which can win one seat with its strength in the assembly, has fielded veteran party leader Mallikarjun Kharge as the candidate, while the BJP is yet to decide on candidates for two seats it can win.

The JD(S), which has 34 seats in the assembly, is not in a position to win a seat in Rajya Sabha on its own, and will need support from one of the national parties with their surplus votes for this.

Minimum 44 votes are required for candidates to win.

Speculation is rife that congress is likely to support JD(S) with its surplus votes if the regional party fields Mr Gowda, and in return may seek favour during legislative council polls slated later this month.

Though JD(S) legislators are of the unanimous opinion that Mr Gowda should contest Rajya Sabha polls, the 87-year-old leader is said to be undecided and weighing options.

If he contests and wins, this will be the second Rajya Sabha entry for him, the first time being in 1996 as Prime Minister.

June 9 is the last date for filing nominations.

Stating that on June 8, Mallikarjun Kharge will file his nomination for Rajya Sabha polls, DK Shivakumar requested party workers not to come to Congress office or Vidhana Soudha, where the nomination will be filed, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Let your love and affection continue, but let's not create problems by gathering here. After the election is over, and once he (Kharge) wins, you can greet and congratulate him. Let's not bring a bad name to his seniority for not maintaining social distancing by gathering," he said.
