Mangaluru, Nov 12: The leaders of Muslim community in the coastal city of Mangaluru including religious heads have unanimously condemned the offensive social media post on the demise of BJP veteran and union minister Ananth Kumar.

Hours after the death of the minister, a Facebook page titled ‘Mangalore Muslims’ termed Ananth Kumar as a “communal” and “Brahmin conspirator”. It went on to say that he should not take a rebirth to destroy this country again. The Mangaluru South Police have registered a case against the unknown admin of the Facebook page over the post.

Within minutes, the distasteful post received hundreds of critical comments from different sections of society including Muslims who felt that the page has been run by some miscreants with the sole intention of defaming Muslims of Mangaluru and triggering anti-Muslim sentiments in the society.

Besides, local representatives of religious organisations of Muslims such as Jamaat-e-Islami Hind, Jamiyyathul Ulama, Imams Council, Jamiat Ahle Hadith etc have urged the police to trace and arrest the admin of the Facebook page.

“This is not the first time the ‘Mangalore Muslims’ Facebook page posting ugly and communally provocative message. It has been constantly trying to defame Muslims in general and Muslims of Mangaluru in particular through provocative messages and memes in the name of Muslims,” commented one Anis Ahmed from Mangaluru.

“The ‘Mangalore Muslims’ Facebook should change its name as ‘Mangalore anti-Muslims’, because no Muslim can curse the dead. Speaking ill of the dead is not our culture. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has taught Muslims to talk good or remain silent,” stated Saiful Islam, another commenter from Mangaluru.

Wat dodanna said is correct, but i want to add some points too. There are many chaddi groups which are continuously spreading hatred against one or two religions! I request Mangalore administration to look into all such groups (both side) and ban those groups!! In short i want to see Facebook itself getting banned in Mangalore!! We can leave in peace if this thing gets banned!

No muslim will give bad comment on any dead person.  I am sure that bad comments by Mangalore Muslims facebook admin is created by anti nationals to defame Muslims.   I am also sure that this face book account is established by same group who are behind creating Indian mujahideen, love jihad etc which are totally false and do not exist in reality.   These are only imaginery organisation created by anti Muslims and anti Indians.   Police should catch the real admin of Mangalore Muslims facebook account and do not arrest innocents just to fill the blank.   Strict action should be taken against the culprits.   In the meantime, i extend my heartfelt condolence to the family of deceased Anant Kumar.    None should have right to criticise any dead person.

Now in this advanced technology and system it is easy to trace out such culprits. Police department must immediately take action against such person.

If the dept neglect then such incidents will repeat again n again.

Crtisizing and giving bad and communal comments against dead person and against wise rulers are now a days more and more in India.Even some news channels also supporting to such thus. 

It is not accepted.

New Delhi, Jul 29: Air Commodore Hilal Ahmad Rather has become a buzz name in Kashmir overnight. Hilal saw off the first batch of Rafale jets which took off from France to India on Monday. Among other things, he has also been associated with the weaponisation of the Rafale aircraft for acclimatisation to Indian requirements.

Hilal is presently India's Air Attache in France.

The career details of this officer of the Indian Air Force (IAF) read like the decoration scroll of the best flying officer anywhere in the world.

Born in the south Kashmir's Anantnag district to middle-class parents, Hilal's father, late Mohammad Abdullah Rather retired as a deputy superintendent of police (Dy SP) in J&K police department. He has three sisters and is the only son of his parents. Hilal studied in Sainik School in Nagrota town of Jammu district.

He was commissioned in IAF as a fighter pilot on December 17, 1988, became flight lieutenant in 1993, wing commander in 2004, group captain in 2016 and air commodore in 2019.

He graduated from defence services staff college (DSSC). He also graduated from air war college (USA) with distinction. He won the sword of honour in NDA. Hilal is also the recipient of Vayu Sena Medal and Vishisht Seva medal.

With an impeccable record of 3,000 accident-free flying hours on mirage-2000, MIG-21 and Kiran aircraft, Hilal's name will now forever be associated with Rafale in India.

Bengaluru, Jan 19: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Sunday said he has had detailed discussions with BJP National President Amit Shah on the cabinet expansion and that the exercise would be carried out after his return from Davos.

The Chief Minister told reporters before leaving for Davos to attend the World Economic Forum meet that he hoped his visit would help bring in large-scale investments to the state. "On cabinet expansion, I had detailed discussions for about half-an-hour (with Amit Shah on Saturday), got a good response... one or two days after I come from Davos, I will expand the cabinet. There are no stumbling blocks for it", Yediyurappa said.

He also rubbished media reports about a lack of clarity on the Ministry expansion. "It is not right... there are no issues", he said.

Asked whether he would travel to Delhi to meet Shah after returning from Davos, Yediyurappa merely said, "It is natural for me to meet Amit Shah." According to the Chief Minister's tour programme, he will be back in the city on January 24.

Yediyurappa, along with Union ministers Piyush Goyal and Mansukh Mandaviya, as well as Chief Ministers Amarinder Singh of Punjab and Kamal Nath of Madhya Pradesh, are among those expected to join over 100 Indian CEOs at Davos in the coming days for the WEF's 50th annual meeting.

Stating that he was leaving on a four day trip for Davos with an aim to bring investments to the state, he said interactions have been fixed with 38 industrialists and investors. "There is a large possibility of investments coming to the state from meetings during the WEF meet. I will assure industrialists and investors that the government will give all necessary facilities within our limits and also clear all the doubts that they have," the Chief Minister said. He said employment opportunities in Karnataka would increase due to all these efforts.

Claiming that the economic situation in Karnataka was stable despite the global economic slowdown, he said the state was also organising the Global Investors Meet in November to attract industries and create employment opportunities.

The delegation led by Yediyurappa includes Industries Minister Jagadish Shettar, Chief Secretary T M Vijaya Bhaskar and top officials of the state government. The Chief Minister, who was anxiously waiting for the high command's nod to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants, was keen on getting approval for it from Shah, but was asked to visit Delhi after returning from Davos, party sources said.

They also said that with J P Nadda all set to take over as BJP National President, he would have final discussions with Yediyurappa on the Ministry expansion exercise. S R Vishwanath, Political Secretary to the Chief Minister too said that Yediyurappa would go to Delhi after his return from Davos and immediately expand the Ministry.

He said the Chief Minister has been asked to hold discussions with Nadda, who is currently BJPs National Working President and finalise things.

As the Chief Minister has already made it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on in the party for the remaining ministerial berths. Currently, there are 18 Ministers, including the Chief Minister in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34.

However, with some reports that the high command may not be keen on making all the 11 re-elected legislators, whom Yediyurappa has given assurance, as Ministers, it remains to be seen how things turn out. Cabinet expansion will not be an easy task for the Chief Minister as he will have to strike a balance by accommodating the victorious disqualified legislators as promised and also make a place for old guards, upset at being "neglected" in the first round of the induction exercise.

He also has to give adequate representation to various castes and regions in his cabinet and also deal with the allocation of key portfolios. Also, disqualified legislators who lost on a BJP ticket during the bypolls like A H Vishwanath (Hunsur) openly expressing their ministerial aspirations has added to the Chief Minister's worry.
