Addressing mediapersons on Saturday, former Union minister Janardhan Poojary said that the Mangaluru Dasara started in 1990 and is known across the country as well as in different parts of the world.

“The Mangaluru Dasara is being organised with the strength and power of the people of the region. Over 75 tableaux will take part in the Dasara procession,” said Poojary, to a query from reporters, and added, “We do not expect any financial assistance from the government. Even during the renovation of the temple, no financial assistance from the government was sought.”

Temple Management Committee treasurer Padmaraj R said that the Dasara celebrations will commence with the installation of the idols of the Navadurgas and Goddess Sharada at 11.15 am on October 1. Daily pooja and rituals will be offered to the idols of Brahmacharini, Chandraghanta, Kooshmandini, Siddhidatri, Mahakali, Mahagowri, Kathyayini, Skanda Mata, Adishakti, Shailaputri and Ganapathi, he said and added that, on October 9, a Chandika Homa and a Hagalothsava will be held. The mass feeding of devotees will be held on October 10.

Cultural programmes featuring leading artists will be held as part of the celebrations on all the days during the festival from 6 pm onwards. Stating that around 75 tableaux are expected to participate in the procession this year, the treasurer said that over 500 colourful umbrellas will also be part of the procession. The streets where the procession pass through are already illuminated to mark Dasara festivities.

He appealed to building owners to illuminate their buildings to add colour to the Dasara procession. The Dasara procession will traverse 7 kilometres, from Kshetra - Ladyhill - Lalbagh - Ballalbagh - Kodialbail - Hampankatte - University College - Ganapathi High School Road - Car Street - Chitra Talkies before reaching the Kshetra.

NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI... There is no image of God.
NA SAMDRSE tisthati rupam asya - His form is not to be seen, no one sees him with the eyes... (Svetasvatara upanishad 4:20)
The images that U worship is not God according to VEDAS..
How come u guys waste a lot of money on that image.. which is motionless and lifeless..

Humans are an intelligent creature which God created, If they use their intellect in finding the TRUE GOD ... God guides them to the TRUTH... please try to search and dont just follow what U follow blindly without logic and reason.

Supreme Court grants bail to 17 Gujarat mass massacre CONVICTS, asks admin to find them work

News Network

January 28,2020

New Delhi, Jan 28: The Supreme Court of India today granted bail to 17 convicts sentenced to life imprisonment in 2002 Gujarat massacre case, pending their appeal before the Supreme Court.

The convicts also have to participate in social and spiritual services, said the court, announcing the riders for bail.

The Bench of Chief Justice of India SA Bobde and Justices BR Gavai and Surya Kant directed for the convicts to be segregated into two groups to be sent to Indore and Jabalpur.

District legal authorities in Indore and Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh have been asked to ensure that the convicts do the spiritual and social work the court has asked for.

The Supreme Court has also asked the administration to find them work for livelihood. The state legal services authority has been asked to file a compliance report as also report on their conduct.

The case concerns the mass killing of 33 innocent Muslims - mostly women and children - who were burnt alive at Sardarpura village in March 2002.

This was part of the mass massacre that swept through Gujarat in the aftermath of the death of train passengers on Sabarmati Express in Godhra on Feb 27, 2002. Thousands of innocent Muslims were killed and raped in the three-day violence. The victims include hundreds of children including newborns.

In 2016, the Gujarat High Court had upheld the conviction of 17 accused in the Sardarpura massacre case.

Earlier, a Special SIT court had convicted a total of 31 persons in the case, after three years of trial against 73 persons from Sardarpura and nearby villages.

Shooting and production of films, TV programmes to resume in Karnataka

News Network

June 16,2020

Bengaluru, Jun 16: Continuing easing of restrictions under 'unlock-1,' the Karnataka government has allowed shooting and production of films and television programmes in the state.

In a clarification, Principal Secretary Revenue N Manjunath Prasad said, shooting and production of all films and television programmes that were stopped in between due to lockdown can be allowed.

It is also allowed to continue with the post-production activities of film and television programmes after completing the shooting, it said.

The permission is conditional as it is subjected to adhering of the national directives issued in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, and standard operating procedures prescribed by the Department of Information and Public Relations.

The clarification said permission can be given as film and television shooting and production activities are not banned under guidelines issued by the centre and the state government recently.
