Kasaragod, Mar 1: Security agencies have accessed a photograph of the body of Hafeesudheen, the youth from Padne in Kasaragod who was reportedly killed in an anti-Islamic State (IS) operation in Afghanistan last Saturday.

1missingIntelligence sources said that the relatives of Hafeesudheen had identified the photograph. Sources said the photograph, sent by Abdul Rashid Abdulla -the leader of the group from Padne -to one of his relatives showed injuries on his forehead besides one on his palm that he suffered in the IS camp a few months ago.

Hafeesudheen was among the 11 youths who left the country last June reportedly to join the dreaded terrorist outfit Islamic State.

Intelligence agencies have also collected details of the training given to Hafeesudheen at the IS camp. He was reportedly killed in a shell attack by Afghan security forces on the IS stronghold in Nargarhar. The youths, however, have not yielded to the persuasion of their families to return to India so far.

"The hardships they encountered in the Afghan camp seem not to have affected their resolve to continue in the path of jihad. Ashfaq, one among them, had messaged to his relative that he is disappointed over the loss of opportunity to become the first shuhada (martyr) for the IS from Kerala," an intelligence officer said.

Amidst heightened border tensions between Indian and China, senior BJP leader and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan's two year old tweet comparing his party with Communist Party of China started going viral. 

The tweet, dated 26 June, 2016 reads: "Communist Party of China & BJP have done numerous works in social field. This way, there is tremendous similarities between the two parties." (sic)

Twitterati dug up this tweet after over 20 Indian Army personnel, including a colonel, were killed in a clash with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh earlier this week.

Soon after Chouhan's tweet went viral, netizens took to the micro-blogging site and slammed BJP. One user said, "Interesting comment by Hindutva ITSELF to recognise how similar they are with China. No doubt. Both believe in Dragon Throne .... and brutal absolute control." Another user said, "No wonder the BJP & China both agree that PLA never crossed into Indian territory."

Bengaluru, Mar 9: The BJP government in Karnataka on Monday scrapped the Shaadi Bhagya Scheme that was launched by Congress government in the state in 2013.

Under the scheme, Rs 50,000 was given to Muslim brides for marriage expenses after they submitted their Aadhar and BPL cards.

While the previous coalition government had allocated Rs 60 crore budget for the scheme, the BJP government decided to discontinue the scheme. Congress called the move by the state government as "anti-minority".

"They have launched a scheme for the majority community. I welcome that. But why are you discontinuing one scheme? It is a small scheme where marginalized people get a little help from the government," Congress MLA Rizwan Arshad told reporters.

"He (Karnataka Chief Minister) has wilfully reduced the money allotted to all the schemes," he added.

BJP MLA Basavana Gowda Patil Yantal welcomed the decision of the Karnataka Government to scrap the scheme.

"The minority does not need appeasement because equal citizenship needs to apply to all in this country. I wholeheartedly welcome this move by the Karnataka Government," Yantal told reporters.

"Should we not give the majority people anything in India? India not giving anything to the majority, is that secular? We have already given them Pakistan," he said.

The MLAs from the minority community in the state have demanded a meeting with the Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa.
