Mysuru: Illegal' madrasa claimed BJP worker's life, alleges MP Pratap Simha

March 15, 2016

Mysuru, Mar 15: Member of Parliament from Mysuru and Kodagu Prathap Simha, on Monday, said, the State government and district administration should be held responsible for the murder of Raju, near a tea shop on MG Road in Udayagiri by three bike-borne assailants, on Sunday evening.

MP Pratap Simha, MLA CT Ravi and others on Monday consoling the family members of Raju, a BJP worker who was hacked to death on Sunday, at Kyathamaranahalli  in Mysuru 

After a meeting with Deputy Commissioner C?Shikha and City Police Commissioner B?Dayananda at the Deputy Commissioner's office, here, Simha said, a disputed madrasa' claimed the life of Raju.

According to Simha, Muslims in Kyathamaranahalli have illegally built a madrasa on a disputed land, which is located next to Raju's house. Raju had been fighting legally to stop it. To take revenge, Raju has been murdered.

The dispute exists since 2009 and four persons have been killed for the same issue, he added.

“After the Congress party came to power in Karnataka, the State is competing with Kashmir, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh in terms of violence. In the recent past, three pro-Hindu activists, including Raju, have been killed. Others are — Praveen Poojary in Moodabidri in Dakshina Kannada and Kuttappa in Kodagu,” Simha added.

“Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is protecting the culprits. Law and order has completely collapsed in the State because of the chief minister. Siddaramaiah is the chief minister for Ahinda and not of the State. But, he must understand that he is responsible for the welfare of all the people,” he said.

The MP?alleged, a majority of the people creating violence in the State belong to Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI).

“After the Congress came to power, the government has withdrawn cases that were booked against 1,500 SDPI members for causing violence,” he said.

Three demands

BJP?State unit General Secretary C T Ravi placed three demands before the district administration. He demanded the arrest of the assailants immediately, Rs 25 lakh compensation for Raju's family and a solution to the land issue.

“Even though the murder was brutal and created panic among Mysureans and the family members of Raju, no minister or Congress MLA is bothered to respond. None visited the family members. The land issue emerged in 2009 and four persons have been killed over it due to the negligence of the District Administration,” Ravi said.

Earlier, Simha and Ravi visited the family members of Raju and consoled them.

Bhopal, Mar 10: Senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh on Tuesday parried questions on the exact number of MLAs supporting the party in Madhya Pradesh amid a political crisis triggered by the resignation of Jyotiraditya Scindia and 14 MLAs loyal to him.

Repeating his allegation that the BJP was trying to destabilise the Congress-led government, Singh told reporters that the BJP had arranged three chartered planes for Bengaluru on Monday to fly out some MLAs loyal to Scindia.

"We want to know why Bengaluru is used every time to destabilise governments?" he questioned.

When asked about the number of MLAs supporting the Congress in the current political scenario, Singh only said, "Just wait".

He said an atmosphere of uneasiness has been prevailing in the BJP since the Kamal Nath government started cracking a whip on various mafias.

"We (the state government) are exposing Vyapam scam, e-tendering scam, Madhyam scam. In the honey-trap case, BJP men were found to be involved. This will be exposed," he said.

The political crisis in Madhya Pradesh precipitated with the resignation of Jyotiraditya Scindia over his apparent marginalisation in the state politics. Following Scindia's suit, 14 legislators loyal to him have sent their resignation letters via e-mail to Madhya Pradesh Raj Bhavan.

Scindia was subsequently expelled from the Congress by party president Sonia Gandhi.

Speculation that the Guna royal might join the BJP gained ground after he met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi this morning.

Mangaluru, Jan 13: A truck parked at the site of protest against the new citizenship law and National Register of Citizens (NRC) at Deralakatte on the outskirts of the city was charred down to ashes after it was set on fire by miscreants, police said here on Monday.

Police said that Deralakatte Citizenship Protection Committee had organised a protest rally against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) here on Sunday. After the rally concluded, a few unidentified miscreants set the vehicle on fire.

The incident resulted in chaos, causing panic among the locals who informed the police immediately.

Condemning the incident, the local unit of Popular Front of India has claimed that the incident was an attempt by saffronist goons to disrupt peace and trigger communal riot in the region. It has urged the police to nab the accused immediately without yielding to any political pressure.

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.
