Mangalore, June 21: Terming the “oath politics”, as 'disgraceful', 'disagreeable' and an 'evil practice', Pejawar Mutt pontiff Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji urged Chief Minster BS Yeddyurappa and former Chief Minister HD Kumarasamy to withdraw from their scheduled “test of truth” before the deity at Dharmasthala.




Addressing media persons after performing his Tulabhara in the city, the seer said that such an adverse step by senior political leaders of the state is a matter of concern.



"This move to self-justify the respective stands taken by them before Lord Manjunatha of Dharmasthala will result in curse and counter-curse for them" the Swamiji warned.



He also said that neither Yeddyurappa, nor Kumaraswamy can gain justice by spelling out their swearing lines before the deity, and would instead invite wrath from all sides.



If the CM and JD(S) state president have to continue with their argument and counter argument, they can approach a court to settle disputes, rather than approaching the diety, he said.



Yeddyurappa has fixed June 27 morning, around 10 a.m., to take oath before the idol of Manjunatha at Dharmasthala that he has not made any attempt to buy Kumaraswamy's silence. Kumaraswamy, said in response that he would be there on June 26 evening itself to take oath in the name of the diety and stick to his stand that Yeddyurappa tried to buy his silence through his emissary.

The Department stated that depression is expected to occur in the south-eastern part of Arabian Sea and the nearby areas and it would be dangerous for the fishermen of Karnataka, Kerala and Lakshadweep to go out towards the deep sea.

The Department officials said that they would provide information on development in weather conditions. In the backdrop of the current weather forecast, however, the fishermen in the western coastline were advised against venturing into the sea.
