Muslim man converts to Hinduism with entire family to spur UP cops to investigate his son’s death

Baghpat(UP), Oct 3: After realising that the local police are treating his son’s suspected murder as suicide just because of his religion, a Muslim man in Uttar Pradesh has converted to Hinduism along with 12 members of his family.

The bizarre incident took place at Badarkha village under Chhaprauli police station area in Baghpat district on Monday (October 1). After formal conversation, Akhtar appealed the policemen to reinvestigate this son’s unnatural death case.

“We were Muslims. This might have discouraged the local police to properly investigate my son’s death case. Now, we have converted to Hinduism. I hope that at least now police will stop considering my son’s death as suicide,” said a helpless Akhtar told media persons after submitting affidavit to the area sub-divisional magistrate, testifying his “voluntary” change of religion.

The conversation took place with requisite rituals. The family members wrapped saffron robes around their shoulders and chanted “Jai Shri Ram”. They also got their names changed, he added. A 'hawan' and recitation of Hanuman Chalisa too was held at the Badarkha village on Tuesday.

Later, Yuva Hindu Vahini (Bharat) state chief Shaukendra Khokhar also urged the police to consider Akhtar’s son death case seriously.

Khokhar said Akhtar was upset after his son Gulhasan was "murdered". "Gulhasan's body, however, was hung to make it appear a suicide," he said.

“Despite repeated assertions by the youth’s family that he was murdered, the police concluded it to be a case of suicide. Akhtar’s family sought help from the members of their own community but they were not very forthcoming and did not help them much. This prompted Akhtar and his family members to change their religion,” he said.

Baghpat District Magistrate Rishirendra Kumar confirmed the incident and said the family members changed their religion as they were not satisfied with the police probe into the death of Akhtar's son a few months ago.

Islam is not a religion to add membership to show the population.

 

It is a true religion to practice guidelines of only one creator Allah (S.B.T). Accepting and quitting Islam will not make any difference for true Muslims. One who understands his creator will not reject his religion even if he dies because his life starts after death which is unlimited. The life in earth is so short that we can compare to hotel stay for a day.

 

Rejecting Islam means he is rejecting his creator Al Mighty Allah and it doesn’t mean he is quitting from Islam

 

 

Islam is the second largest religion in the world only in Qty. where is true Muslim? very few in qty

 

 

Accepting Islam doesn’t mean becoming membership in Islam. It is accepting his creator and his guidelines to practice successful and peaceful life and thereby prepare for his permanent life which starts after his death.

 

For true Muslims there is no fear to die. because he is always prepared and waiting for his death

 

 

May Almighty Allah guide us True path and success.

This is really unfortunate.  He has chnged in religion only to get the verdict in his favor.  Suppose he wont get it, will he convert to Christianity or Budhism or Sikhism?   Will the media give same preference in case he would have changed to religion other than Hinduism or if any Hindu converted to another religion.   This issue is now on the top agenda of Media and they are publishing it by applying ghee + butter.   None knows truth behind it.  However this family will not succeed in this world and the life after death if they convert to other religion though none can force them to change the religion.   Islam or Muslims will not lose anything if this family converts to another religion.   But this family will lose and they will realise it sooner or later.  Let us pray God to keep them on right path and not on the path of Sathan.

The religion is set of law decreed by the CREATOR/ ONE AND ONLY GOD.

It guides from birth till death and showing how to be also succesful in the life after the death.

 

This is not how we think just to suite the temporary needs.

Before accepting or rejecting any religion, he should have thorough idea of its teachings.

 

Unless it is known, believed in it  and practiced, we can not call him the follower of Hinduism OR ISLAM, OR Christianity OR whatever.

 

Like changing for personal temporary gains, has no meaning and not required they can live like aninals which have no religions.

The animals follow and  do whatever easy for them.

 

God give wisdom to all

Mangaluru, Jan 25: Orange vendor Harekala Hajabba, popularly known as 'Akshara Santha' (the saint of alphabets), who went on to build a school at Newpadpu village on the city’s outskirts in 1999 is among this year’s Padma Shri awardees.

When Hajabba received the call on being nominated for the award, he was standing in a queue to buy rations.

As he is not fluent in Hindi, Hajabba handed over the phone to an auto driver, who conveyed the news that the Padma Shri award will be conferred on him.

The unlettered achiever set up a primary school from his meagre savings of Rs 150 per day,  selling oranges in Mangaluru. 

“The first time I felt bad for being an illiterate was when a foreigner enquired about the price of oranges in English. I did not know what he meant. So, I decided to start a school in my village,” Hajabba had said during a felicitation programme.

When Hajabba decided to start a school, he did not get any support. He started the school with 28 children.

The school today has been upgraded to a composite high school and is catering to the educational needs of hundreds of children in and around Newpadpu.

He ran from pillar to post in the Zilla Panchayat to make his dream come true. All cash awards he had received went into building the school. The United Christians Association, moved by the sight of his dilapidated house, built a 760-square-foot house costing Rs 15 lakh for him. 

Hajabba’s life was prescribed for the syllabus of three universities - Davangere, Kuvempu and Mangalore. His success story is also included in a Tulu textbook.

He won the Karnataka Rajyotsava award in 2013, Real Heroes award from TV channel CNN-IBN.

Hajabba, when contacted, said he could not believe his ears when told about the award.

New dreams

The frail vendor, in his 60s, humbly declared that he could achieve all this because of the support of all. Hajabba now dreams of upgrading the school into a full-fledged PU college.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: The National Commission for Scheduled Tribes (NCST), which met with officials of the Social Welfare Department Thursday, has urged the state government to increase the reservation provided to the ST community.

The Commission's suggestion comes even as a committee headed by Justice Nagamohan Das is currently studying a demand for increase of reservation for the community from the existing 3% to 7.5%.

Addressing mediapersons on Thursday, Commission Chairperson Nand Kumar Sai, said the Commission had discussed the issue with the Social Welfare Department, Karnataka, asking officials to expedite the process.

In response to this suggestion, Social Welfare Department Principal Secretary G Kumar Naik said the government would take a call based on the Nagamohan Das Committee's report.

A meeting was held between members of the National ST Commission and the Social Welfare Department Thursday with regard to various projects taken up by the department.

In June last year, the then Kumaraswamy-led coalition government constituted the Justice Nagamohan Das Committee, after protests from members of the Valmiki community for an increase in reservation to 7.5%. At present, Karnataka provides 15% reservation for SCs, 3% for STs and 32% for other backward classes (OBC).

The national commission also urged the state government to ensure permanent faculty in all the 824 residential institutions run by the department. At present, as much as 50% of the faculty in these institutions have been hired on a contractual basis. "We have assured that the recruitment will be done in a short time," Naik told mediapersons.
