Mangalore, November 4: Sri Ram Sene Chief Pramod Muthalik urged the Chikmagalur district administration to make arrangement for the paduka darshana of Datta at Datta peeta during Datta Mala Abhiyana, which will be held from Novermber 8 to 13.

Addressing a press meet here on Friday, he said that the preparations are on for the Datta Mala Abhiyana throughout the state. “I have written to the Chikmagalur Deputy Commissioner seeking permission for the Paduke darshana. However, I did not get any reply from the authorities so far. About 5,000 devotees along with 25 sages will take part in the Datta Mala Abhiyana. The Shobhayathra of the Abhiyana will be held on November 13,” he said.

In view of Bakrid, many have started illegal transportation of cows for slaughtering on the day of Bakrid. Hence, the police and the State government should initiate action against the illegal transportors and should not give scope for the slaughtering of the cows, he demanded.

Muthalik said that Sri Rama Sene has no connection with the attack on St Alphonsa Church at Kankanady on Thursday night.

State convenor Prasad Attavar said the attack on the church was an attempt to tarnish the image of Sri Rama Sene.

“The Sene was not involved in any attack on the church or masjid. The police should probe into the attack on church in Mangalore,” he said.

To a query on Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti members resorting to pelting of stones and observing black day to mark Kannada Rajyotsava, he said being in Karnataka, such reactions and retaliations are wrong.

To another query on plebiscite at Kashmir, Muthalik said that Kashmir is an integral part of India. One inch of the land from Kashmir will not be given away to others. If any government goes ahead with according autonomous status and pelbiscite issue, then Sri Rama Sene will raise its voice against any such move.

Though the press conference was scheduled to be held at Maya International in Balmatta, the venue was shifted to Pathumudi Soudha and later to a house.

As the police had asked the organisers not to hold the press meet by Muthalik in Mangalore, the venue was shifted, said State convenor Prasad Attavar. However, the police too took part in the press meet in civil dress.

As Muthalik had not spoken anything controversial or on the church attack, the police did not arrest him.

Bengaluru, Jul 28: After the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) reduced the syllabi for Classes 9 to 12 due to COVID-19 pandemic, the Karnataka government has followed the suit. The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapters on legendary south Indian rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent. 

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

The trimmed textbooks uploaded on the website of the Department of State Education Research and Training (DSERT) by Karnataka state Textbook Society revealed removal of chapters on Tipu Sultan for the seventh grade.

Justifying the decision, officials said, "students study similar chapters in Class 6 and more in the 10th grade." Yet another senior official from the Text Book Society said, "Trimming does not mean we have removed half of the syllabus from textbooks. It is only keeping in mind the repetition we have condensed the chapters. In case students study about a particular dynasty in higher grades, then the same had been removed from lower grades."

A few months ago, there was an uproar over dropping of content on Tipu Sultan and MLAs from the ruling BJP also demanded the same and petitioned to the Chief Minister. Even an expert committee led by Prof Baraguru Ramachandrappa suggested to not drop any content on the historic figure. However, the department still decided to drop lessons from one of the classes while keeping the syllabus short for the next 120 active academic days.

Earlier this month, a controversy had erupted over the CBSE's decision to omit topics like federalism, secularism, citizenship, etc while reducing the syllabus for Classes 9 to 12. The education board had issued a detailed clarification later, stating that topics claimed to be dropped "are either being covered by the rationalised syllabus or in the Alternative Academic Calendar of NCERT".

"The rationalisation of syllabus up to 30 per cent has been undertaken by the Board for nearly 190 subjects of class 9 to 12 for the academic session 2020-21 as a one-time measure only. The objective is to reduce the exam stress of students due to the prevailing health emergency situation and prevent learning gaps," it said.

Last week, the Congress in Uttar Pradesh expressed its concern over 'deliberate and systematic' deletions of chapters related to the freedom struggle and the party's role in it from the Class 10-12 syllabi of the Secondary Education Board.
