Beary Academy urged to bring out advanced dictionary

July 3, 2011
Mangalore, July 3: Stating that there is no connection between religion and Beary culture, senior Beary activist Aththoor Cheyyabba urged Bearys not to mix religion with Beary Sahithya Academy, which, according to him, has been working to preserve and promote Beary language, literature and culture, since its inception.

He was speaking at an interaction programme organised by Karnataka Beary Sahithya Academy here on Sunday.

He exhorted the Bearys to write in their mother tongue without any hesitation. There should be an elaborated debate on published Beary books, he suggested.

Calling upon the Academy to involve in more and more research activities on Beary language, literature and culture in the days to come, he said there is a need to bring out an advanced bi-lingual Beary dictionary.

Mr Cheyyabba, however, said that Muslims should remain within the jurisdiction of religion. In the olden days women sang peans hailing Arab kings which had nothing to do with religion, he pointed out.

KMK Manjanady, Headmaster of Sayyid Madani Highschool, Ullal said Beary language, which is already included in Prathibha Karanji competitions, can be promoted through cultural events in colleges too.

Speaking on the occasion, Pradeep Kumar Kalkura, President of Dakshina Kannada district Kannada Sahithya Parishat wondered whether the setting up of all the academies after independence had “somehow taken us away from the unity of the tricolour”

MB Abdul Rahman, President of the Academy said that it is not possible to solve all the problems of the community through an institution. “It is not the aim of the Academy to solve the problems of the Beary community. It is a government institution to preserve Beary language and culture,” he said adding that the Academy, which has conducted 55 programmes within the span of 22 months since its inception, is heady towards success.

He also said that the government accredited the Bearys by granting an Academy of their own.

When one participant suggested that Academy could do something to fight dowry menace, Mr Rahman said the Academy did not have the mandate in this regard.

BA Moideen, Former State Minister presided over the function. Basheer Baikampady, Umarabba and others were present.

Kasaragod, Jul 26: First funeral, now wedding. Forty-three persons who attended a wedding at Pilankatta in Chengala panchayat in Kasaragod on July 17 have tested positive for Covid-19, said district medical officer (DMO) A V Ramdas.

They include the bride and the groom. Collector D Sajith Babu has asked all those who attended the wedding to go into home quarantine for 14 days. Those with Covid symptoms should get in touch with the nearest primary health centre, he said.

The DMO said samples of 128 persons linked to the wedding were tested, of which 43 turned out positive. Earlier, 44 persons who attended a funeral in Cherkala in the first week of July had tested positive. The funeral was declared a cluster and the government had to test 522 persons linked to the funeral.

The collector said those taking part in funeral or weddings without following the Covid protocol would be booked under the Kerala Epidemic Diseases Act. If convicted, they would face up to two years of rigorous imprisonment and a fine of `10,000. Kasaragod police said they will register a case in connection with the wedding. 

Pilankatta ward member Abdulla Kunhi K B said it was not a big fat wedding. The ceremony held at the bride’s house at Pilankatta was attended by less than 100 people, he said.“Theirs is a big family with four houses in one compound. 

As many as 30 members are staying in these houses,” said Kunhi. Nine of the 30 have tested positive.Of the 15 guests, who came from the bride’s mother’s house, 12 contracted the infection. “The rest of the infected persons were among the groom’s guests,” said Kunhi, who did not attend the wedding. The groom and the bride’s father returned from Dubai three months ago.
