Suratkal, November 21: Popular Front of India, Suratkal conducted a rally and public meet at Fiza Ground, Krishnapur near here on Sunday as part of the organization's publicity campaign for Social Justice Conference scheduled to be held at Ramlila Maidan, New Delhi, on 26th and 27th November 2011.

Addressing the gathering Anwar Sadath, Chairman, Information and Empowerment Centre, Mangalore, said that though the Indian constitution says that resource of the country should be shared to the every citizen of the nation, the consecutive governments that ruled the country after independence have deceived common people.

“All rulers of our country after the independence hailed from upper caste and upper section”, he pointed out.

He said that distance between rich and poor in the country has been growing day by day. PFI has pledged to remove the handcuffs of slavery put on to the hands of people by national political parties and to free the people of this land. The organisation is urging for the justice before the state what the common people desire, he said.

Mr Sadath said RSS is spreading Brahminism in the country under the guise of development of Hindus. Dalits and backward sections had begun a movement for the implementation of Mandal commission report during V P Singh's tenure as prime minister. But L K Advani changed the direction of the movement by launching ratha yathra.

“Our nation achieved independence because of the struggle of real Hindus and Muslmis. RSS had never participated in freedom struggle. Its second convener M S Golwalker, in his book 'We, Our Nationhood Defined', mentioned that 'Hindus should not participate in freedom struggle. British are not our enemies. Our real enemies are Muslims, and hence Hindus should accumulate strength to fight against them'. This shows the real face of so called patriotic organisation”, he said.

PFI state committee member Haji Abubakkar Siddiq, D.K and Udupi district zonal president A.M.Ataullah, All India Imams Council member Jafar Sadiq Faizy, D.K district president of Karnataka Raitha Sangha Lohithaksha Rai, SDPI state committee member Abdul Azeez, SDPI D.K.district president Jalil K, vice president of SDPI Mangalore Corporation committee Abubakkar Kulai, president of Krishnapura Badriya Jumma Masjid Muhammad Hasan, president of Al Badriya Educational Association Haji.B.M.Mamthaz Ali, president of Masjidul Asthal Jumma Masjid Abdul Rahiman Krishnapura, Popular Front Surathkal president Nurullah Kulai were present at the program.

Bengaluru, Jan 3: Former Karnataka chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah on Friday criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said that 90 per cent of the promises made by him remain unfulfilled.

"He (Prime Minister Modi) had promised that in 2020 the economy will be doubled, but only their troubles have doubled. He just lied. 90 per cent of the promises made by Modi have remained unfulfilled," Siddaramaiah told media here.

Siddaramaiah's remarks come at a time when Prime Minister Modi is on a two-day visit to the state.

"In August, there was severe flood in state, he didn't visit Karnataka at that time. Flood situation was in 23 districts. Prime Minister will tweet for small issues. But at the time of severe flood he didn't even tweet. In 2009, Manmohan Singh was the Prime Minister. He did aerial survey of the state and announced Rs 1500 crore relief on spot," Siddaramaiah said.

"This time the estimated damage due to flood is more than Rs 1 lakh crores," he said.

He went on to say, "Prime Minister came to witness Chandrayaan-2. He did not give time to Chief Minister and ministers and opposition party to meet him and discuss about floods."

"When I was the Chief Minister, the Prime Minister visited the state two times. Prime Minister had told at the time of inauguration of food park that there will be 10,000 direct employment and 25,000 employment. But nothing has happened till now," Siddaramaiah said.

Besides the Prime Minister, Siddaramaiah also criticised Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa.

"In last election, Prime Minister had told that, if BJP comes to power in Centre and state, there will be development. But nothing has happened. Chief Minister and ministers should have spoken to the Prime Minister about relief funds. The central government should have announced it as National disaster... That's why I called BS Yediyurappa as weak Chief Minister," Siddaramaiah said.

"He had said if BJP is in power at the centre and state, doors of fortune of the state will be opened. People trusted him and gave 25 seats in Lok Sabha elections. But now, he doesn't even open the doors of his house for his party leaders," he said.

Congress leader further cornered the Prime Minister over his address in Tumkuru Mutt on Thursday and said, "We admit Pakistan is an evil country. But what are you doing about minorities in our country? You are bringing law against the minorities. Is that right? And you give speech about these things in front of young children."

Prime Minister Modi is on a two-day visit to Karnataka and is attending several events as part of his official engagements.
