Kerala’s Pinarayi govt demands immediate ban on PFI; Modi govt yet to decide

News Network

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan-led Kerala government has urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led union government of India to immediately impose ban on the Popular Front of India (PFI).

Kiren Rijiju, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs, told media persons on Wednesday that the issue was discussed at the annual DGP meet held in Madhya Pradesh’s Tekanpur in January, where Kerala police chief Lokanath Behera gave a detailed presentation on the PFI’s growth and activities in the State.

The session was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Rajnath Singh and other senior officials in the security establishment. “Kerala has pressed for a ban on the PFI and we are examining the case,” said Mr. Rijiju.

Mr. Behera listed four cases where members of the PFI were involved in criminal activities, said a senior Home Ministry official. The Centre will collect more facts and evidence about the activities of the outfit before declaring it an “unlawful association”, the official added.

“It has never happened in the past that activities of a particular organisation were discussed threadbare at a DGP meet. The PFI is under the scanner, but is not yet banned. On earlier occasions, organisations like SIMI (Students’ Islamic Movement of India) and Indian Mujahideen were discussed at DGP meets, but only after they were banned,” said the official.

The DGP meet is an annual affair organised by the Intelligence Bureau where issues concerning internal security are discussed.

The National Investigation Agency had last year sent a detailed report to the Home Ministry and mentioned four cases where cadres of the PFI had either been charge-sheeted or convicted.

The NIA said it examined nine cases where men and women converted to Islam and in at least four of them, the involvement of members of the PFI was established.

Good decision if Kerala govt banning PFI. I dont know about other states. But in Kerala they involved in many terror activities and they were under probe. I mean their activities. and it's not immediate ban mr.reporter. Their activities were suspicious and many proved. The probe started atleast two year ago

Is anyone discussed about baning terror outfit RSS????

RSS Should be BAN in INDIA. Criminal activities starting from killing Gandhi,Gujrath killing, Babri majid demolish etc

PFI is a national organisation. But in Karnataka, BJP blames Siddaramaiah for not banning PFI. But no BJP ruled states banned PFI. Modi govt also not ready to ban PFI... What the F***

You can't ban the PFI and curtail freedom for particular community without doing the same for other organizations, one of which has been banned in India thrice previously.

How long you people speak these kind of blatant lies against PFI. The same set of baseless allegations you made against PFI, please apply them to RSS, BD. CPM, BJP and Congress - ALL THESE WILL BE BANNED within a Minute. You people daily killing members of other organisations - there are thousands of cases to quote, why your mouth is shut. Dont be spineless cowards, speak & behave like MAN with maturity.

"Karnataka government should provide vitamin C drug, Ayush Ministry-certified immunity boosters and sanitisers to every household to fight against COVID-19," Kumaraswamy told media.

The JDS leader further stated that "appropriate medication should be provided to those who are "symptomatic" by the Karnataka government and added that "by taking such measures the government can halt the spread of the virus."

If the government is not able to provide the health kit to everyone then at least they should give it to the BPL families, he added.

Yediyurappa should apologise to nation for Ballari incident: DK Shivakumar

News Network

July 1,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 1: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) chief DK Shivakumar on Wednesday said that the state Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa should apologise to the nation for the Ballari incident.

"It is shocking to see the Ballari incident. The way the dead bodies of the corona victims have been treated is very unfortunate. The entire country witnessed it. I request the Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa to apologise to the nation. India is known for its values and traditions," Shivakumar told reporters here.

Earlier, Shivakumar had posted a video which allegedly showed officials 'inhumanly' dumping bodies of those patients who die of COVID into a pit in Ballari, the district administration confirmed it and said that the entire field team involved in the incident has been disbanded.

"It's disturbing to see bodies of COVID patients who have died being dumped inhumanly into a pit in Ballari. Is this civility? This is a reflection of how the government has handled this Corona crisis. I urge the govt to take immediate action and ensure that this doesn't happen again," Shivakumar's tweet, which also had a video of the incident embedded, read.

The Deputy Commissioner, Ballari issued a press note which stated that it had conducted an enquiry after the video surfaced and it was found that the video belonged to the district and "comprises of burial of eight people who passed away after succumbing to COVID-19."

Although, according to the DC, all protocols and SOPs were followed by the team during the burial process, however, the "disrespectful handling of the bodies while being lowered on to the ground by the field staff" led to the entire field team involved being disbanded and will be replaced by a new team trained by the HOD, Forensic, VIMS.

The district administration also issued an unconditional apology to the families of the deceased and to others who were hurt by the incident.

Meanwhile, Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa also termed the behaviour of the staff "very inhuman and very painful" and urged the staff to tread cautiously with humanity in handling the funeral of those affected by the disease, and added, "Let's walk with humanity, and realize that there is no greater religion than humanity."
