Mysuru, Sept 5: Kannada writer and Hindutva advocate S L Bhyrappa has demanded direct flight from Mysuru to Mangaluru and Hubballi instead of flight service between Mysuru and Bengaluru.

Speaking at the launch of 'You Cannot Miss This Flight', essays on Emerging India, organised by Mysuru Literary Forum Charitable Trust Book Clubs and Harper Collins Publishers at a private hotel, here he said that will not prefer to take a flight from Mysuru to Bengaluru as the travelling time from airports to the cities are more

"People, who developed flights between Mysuru and Bengaluru are fools. Mysuru Airport is far from the city and nearer to Nanjangud. Similarly, Bengaluru Airport is in Devanahalli and no one will take flight from Mysuru to Bengaluru as the travelling time from airports to cities is more," he said.

Suggesting that flights must be introduced between Mysuru and Mangaluru or Hubballi, Bhyrappa said, road connectivity between Mysuru and Mangaluru is not good.

"The officials should guide the politicians in policy matters but, in India, the officials are not working properly. Majority of the politicians are not intelligent and need guidance. Though Prime Minister Narendra Modi is better compared to others, the officials failed to implement various programmes introduced by the PM," Bhyrappa said.

Mangaluru, May 26: Days after the government of India approved the use of chartered flights for the repatriation of Indians stranded across the world amidst covid-19 lockdown, two NRI entrepreneurs in Saudi Arabia have offer to bear the cost of repatriation if they get formal green signal to repatriate stranded Indians from Dammam to Mangaluru International Airport before June 5.

Althaf Ullal and Basheer Sagar, the two Kannadiga Directors of Al Khobar-based Saqco, have made this offer in a letter written to Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa and Union Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri.

The duo have assured that their company will bear the cost of the first chartered flight from Dammam to Mangaluru if the government paves way for its operation by June 5. 

It is learnt that many private airliners have come forward to operate chartered flight and are waiting for final clearance from the government. It will cost approximately Rs 45 lakh to hire chartered flight with 180 capacity from Dammam to Mangaluru. 

Pregnant women, medical emergency cases, senior citizens on visit visas, those who lost jobs due to lockdown among other stranded Indians will be given priority in this flight, they said.

"Our company will completely bear this cost. Passengers only need to bear the cost of institutional quarantine after reaching Mangaluru," they have clarified.

Bareilly, Jun 22: The All India Tanzeem Ulama-e-Islam, a religious and social organisation headed by five senior clerics, has issued a fatwa to boycott Chinese products in the country.

The clerics said the community members should stand with the army and government in this hour.

Expressing concern over India-China face-off, National general secretary of All India Tanzeem Ulama-e-Islam, Maulana Shahbuddin Rizvi expressed concern over the India-China face-off and said, "A fatwa has been passed for boycotting Chinese products on a query posted by a Bareilly-based resident. The clerics in the fatwa have condemned the conspiracy of China to encroach upon Indian land and the killing of our brave soldiers."
