He was delivering a talk at 'Tiranga Yatra' and 'Balidana Smarane', in the presence of BJP supremo Amit Shah at Mangala Auditorium of Mangalore University on Sunday.

"Mangaluru is a place located between Kasaragod and Bhatkal. From Kasargod, we have seen that several youngsters have joined IS. Meanwhile, Bhatkal has seen many with terror links and they have threatened the country. Hence, Mangaluru is a central place where a new message needs to be conveyed as per the visions of our Prime Minister," Mr Gowda said adding that the patriotic message should echo through the west coast - from Thiruvananthapuram to Mumbai.

He said, there are several instances to prove the depth of nationalism among Indians. But unfortunately, we also hear voices against the country. Even when India is witnessing a fast-paced development with Prime Minister Narendra Modi initiating various schemes, anti-national slogans are being raised at various corners of the country.

“Instilling patriotism in each Indian is the only solution to eliminate these anti-national activities. Hence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called upon people to celebrate the Independence Day by remembering freedom fighters,” he said.

The Prime Minister has made it a responsibility of all ministers to reach out to the freedom fighters, their families and honour them, he added. Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel spoke about Veerarani Abbakka, who fought against the Portuguese and the British.

Oh Prime Minister! we lived peacefully in mangalore for years together.
for the record it was only your party \dirty politics\" that created problems in our city. all religions live in harmony here. it was so unnessasary to create TERROR in hearts of our fellow people by raising the topic of IS which many across the world know already is a lame group which no human want to belong to. just because kasargod and bhatkal has muslim majority it doesnt mean you have to tagline muslims as terrorist..it hurts our sentiments. much more because WE MUSLIMS ARE NOT USED TO LIARS, FORGET TERRORISM. muslims being quite doesnt mean we agree to all that you say. we just dont want to add fuel to the fire that you politicians have ignited! Remember this: that we YOUTH have nothing to look upto in you politicians..you are never going to be our role models regarding peace and ruling a country in a JUST manner. You can never divide the present YOUTH based on our religion!!! never ever dream of!"

It tooks 70 years to hoist the national flag at Nagpur RSS headquarters.
This is a drama by BJP in the name of Tiranga Yatra to fool the innocent people. Real nationalism and patriotism comes from the heart not from the lips. Amith Shah should visit Srirangapattanam to pay tribute to the real hero of the Independence struggle Tippu Sultan before returning to Delhi. Tippu is the only leader you can find in the history died in the battle field fighting against the British for the country.
