This day will come to every one even for ME & Quran mentions every-soul shall taste death.
EVEN for U Cheddi members
Even for BD members
Even for VHP or any Haters
That day U will be answerable to the one who gave life to U & ME.
That day U will be answerable for the deeds U did in this life.
That day your good deeds will benefit
That day your bad deeds will haunt YOU if not repented.
ALLAH, the true God who created all that exists accept honest repentance except associating partners in worshiping with HIM.
ALLAH has prescribed LiFE and death and it will come on its prescribed time... U can do whatever evil but a day will come just like this day for Sudheendra.
Recognizing the TRUE GOD and repenting him and promising not to commit the crime will save you from the punishment of the one who gave this life.
God is GREAT , God is Most Merciful.

Bantwal, Jul 24: Former Union Minister B Janardhan Poojary on Friday said that people need to shed all their misconception regarding COVID-19 and stop taking it so lightly as it is not just any normal disease.

The 83-year-old politician who was tested positive for covid-19, was recently discharged from hospital after recovering completely.

Giving a word of caution, he said, “Earlier also there have been several diseases like Covid-19 and it has been eradicated. Even covid-19 will be eradicated. So, people should not get scared of the disease instead must fight with it”

“Also, covid-19 patients must not be treated like untouchables as those with symptoms may also not mention it due to the fear of being treated badly,” he added.
