It’s Kalladka Bhat’s order: Churches, dargahs, madrasas must celebrate national festivals

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat has urged the Karnataka government to issue a strict diktat to the religious centres of Christians and Muslims to compulsorily celebrate all the national festivals of India.

Speaking to media persons in Belagavi on Monday, Bhat said that it was the responsibility of the State government to ensure that national festivals are celebrated in churches, dargahs and madrasas.

Accusing the chief minister Siddaramaiah and his government of committing atrocities on Hindus in the name of promoting secularism, he urged the people to topple the “anti-Hindu government”.

He spoke against the Muzrai Department administering Hindu temples, while letting autonomous bodies like the Wakf board, oversee mosques and dargahs.

He said he will appreciate if religion dictated politics, but will not tolerate politics controlling religion. He warned the government against interfering in religious institutions.

Don’t jump to conclusions

Bhat decried the habit of “pointing fingers” at Hindutva organisations even before the investigations into the murder of activist-journalist Gauri Lankesh and scholar M.M. Kalburgi are over. “It is unfair to come to a conclusion before the police completed their task,” he added.

Unfortunately good secular are being killed by the criminals like these. Such criminals are lucky for not being harrassed or touched by anybody. This is temporary situation.

The God is watching and relaxing him to do more sins. Slowly he will be caught and nobody can save him.. We have seen many criminals in the past with all attrocities beyond the bounds. Finally their day had come.

Nobody can dare to force any religions,  what to follow and what not to follow. It is not the business of anybody. It is command what they are following from their God. If he wants he can do at his home even he can not force his people at the temple.

He is utter stupid, Politics is not controlled by any group or religion. It is the choice of democracy. The majority in the state  is Hindus. But all are not stupids like him.

Though they are majority, they selected good government. Because of Northern states, BJP came to power, now all Hindus are fed-up of Modi's group.

their end is also very imminent. Modi's time has come to get Political Sanyasam.

Bengaluru, Jul 8: In a setback to the State government, the Karnataka High Court on Wednesday stayed the initial ban and the subsequent restrictions imposed on schools against conducting online classes from pre-primary to Class X.

Prima facie the ban and embargo imposed on online education violate Articles 21 and 21A of the Constitutionon the fundamental right to education, the Court said.

A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Abhay Shreeniwas Oka and Justice Nataraj Rangaswamy passed the interim order staying the operation of Government Orders issued on June 15 and June 27 respectively.

The Bench passed the interim order on the petitions filed by parents of children and several educational institutions questioning the legality of the ban and the restrictions imposed.

However, the Bench made it clear that this order should not be construed that the schools have right to make online education compulsory and can charge fee for offering online education. Also, the schools should not deprive students, who cannot opt for online education, the lost education when the schools reopen on regular basis.

Bengaluru, Jun 8: More than two months after the nationwide lockdown was imposed to curb the spread of coronavirus, people offered prayers at Bengaluru's Saint Mary's Church and Shree Dodda Ganapathi Temple as the government has allowed reopening of religious places from today.

Fewer devotees here visited Saint Mary's Church in Shivaji Nagar and were seen maintaining social distancing inside the church premises.

Meanwhile, people queued outside Shree Dodda Ganapathi Temple at Basavanagudi to offer prayers in the wee hours of Monday.

Floor markings have been made here to maintain social distancing.

Social distancing norms are also being followed in Hubli's Nagashetty Koppa where only a few devotees thronged the temple on Monday morning.

In Kalaburagi's Sharana Basaveshwara Temple the visiting hours for devotees have been fixed from 7 am to 10 am and three hours in the evening from 5 pm to 8 pm.

New Delhi, Jul 22: Sir Philip Barton visited Bengaluru on Tuesday in the first of the series of virtual regional visits as the UK's new High Commissioner and called Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa, business leaders, and startup community to pitch for new momentum in the already strong UK-Karnataka relationship.

During his virtual call, High Commissioner Barton got a 'real' taste of Bengaluru through a traditional Masala Dosa delivered to his residence in Delhi along with authentic south Indian filter coffee, which he relished over a chat with historian and commentator Ramachandra Guha. They discussed the unique UK-India "living bridge" across culture and cuisine, history and heritage, and sports and science.

Both Yeddyurappa and the British envoy restated their commitment to working together on the immediate challenges of Covid-19 and beyond.

Barton subsequently 'traveled' to Electronics City, where he met with a range of key business leaders to discuss deepening the UK-India tech partnership and opportunities for global investors in the UK.

Barton also met with a group of entrepreneurs, business founders and innovators, who were part of the first GoGlobal UK cohort to explore the dynamic UK market considered one of the best ecosystems for startups in the world. 

They had earlier attended a week-long boot-camp in London and Manchester in December 2019 that helped them bolster their business skills, build links with UK's thriving digital sector, and paved the way for future partnerships.

"I am delighted to make my first regional virtual visit to Bengaluru, the technology hub of India. My visit comes at a difficult time for everyone. So it is also a time when the excellent collaboration between the UK and Karnataka across technology and healthcare could not be important," Barton said.

"Making the most of those close links, and drawing on the great energy, innovation and entrepreneurship that Karnataka is famous for, will be central to ensuring we all recover from Covid-19 stronger than ever," he added.
