Salute the heroes Basappa Patil and Hasan Saab. This shows that the sacrifice to country is superior than any other duty. India please do not fight on the basis of religion, caste etc. Ours is the only country without any turmoil. just look at other countries around the world including western countries like USA. Hate is everywhere in the world.
May the soul of departed rest in peace.

This is true Jihad.

Literal meaning of Jihad is struggle.

Generally used for who participate in the justified war.

But now a days unfortunately Jihadists are labeled for different category of people, where some are rightly and some are wrongly labeled.

Bengaluru, Feb 18:  A fan of Kannada film star Darshan smashed the face of a police constable with a boulder when the latter asked him to come in the queue to a party to celebrate the star’s birthday.

The incident happened past midnight on February 15 near the residence of the film star where his birthday was being celebrated.

The injured police constable has been identified as Devaraj, attached to the Jnana Bharathi police station.

The film star’s managers had not made arrangements to handle a huge crowd that gathered near his residence and police had a tough time controlling the crowd.

Constable Devaraj was deputed to duty at the party and tried to get the crowd to fall in line.

As the police carried out a mild lathi-charge to control the crowd, a fan of Darshan came up with a boulder in his hand and smashed the face of the constable Devaraj from very close distance. The constable collapsed on the spot and the attacker ran away.

The impact was such that Devaraj’s nose was fractured and he sustained an eye injury. He was admitted to a private hospital and his condition is said to be serious.

The R R Nagar police have registered a case under IPC sections 353 and 352. The cops have launched a hunt for the accused and they are obtaining CCTV footage from the spot.

A complaint is being registered against the organisers of the event and an investigation is on. Several neighbours of Darshan have also complained to the police about the chaos on February 15.
