Mangalore, November 20: Being an important global player and ally of Palestine, India should exert pressure on Israeli regime through United Nations to immediately end its blatant aggression towards besieged Gaza, said P C Hamza, General Secretary of Welfare Party of India.

Addressing a public meeting of the one-and-a-half-year-old party at Town Hall in the city on Monday evening, expressed his party's solidarity and sympathy with the helpless Palestinians against the Israeli aggression.

Expressed grief and sorrow on the martyrdom of many innocent Palestinians in the attacks, Mr Hamza said that being a founding member of the Non-Aligned Movement, India cannot remain a mute-spectator to the current crisis in Hamas-ruled Gaza strip.

Criticising the government and police for selectively targeting educated youth of a particular community in terror related cases, he demanded the government to publicly apologise and compensate those innocent Muslim youths who were acquitted after spending several years in prisons.

Talking about the relevance of WPI in the current political scenario, he said that it was inevitable to form a political party based on moral values at a time when both ruling and opposition parties of the country and its states have miserably failed to accomplish their responsibilities.

B T Lalitha Naik, the Vice President of WPI, said that her party stands for affirmative actions and special measures for all weaker sections and communities till they get complete social emancipation and dignified space in society.

“We will fight till suppressed and marginalised sections get justice. Apart from food, shelter and home, all people of this country should get free education and health care facilities. This is one of the goals of our party”, he said.

Prof T T Jacob, Kasargod district President of WPI, said that his party is the only party in India which embodies country's spirit of unity in diversity. “WPI is striving to realise a welfare state based on moral values and governed by the principles of Justice, Freedom, Equality and Fraternity”, he said.

Earlier, a vehicle rally was taken out from Pumpwell to Hamilton circle, where the news office of the district committee of the party was inaugurated by Ms Lalitha Nayak.

Bengaluru, Aug 4: As the stage is set for the ground-breaking ceremony for Ram temple construction at Ayodhya on Wednesday, retired Supreme Court judge N Santosh Hegde has called for the promotion of religious harmony and peaceful coexistence and respect for different faiths.

"It is a good idea to make that as an object of the temple so that there can be peace in the world," the former Solicitor General of India said when asked if the temple should be promoted as a symbol of national integration, and social and communal harmony.

Hegde said one of the most dangerous things for conflict today is religion. "In that background, there should be some effort from somebody or other to bring about peaceful coexistence, respecting each religion," the former Karnataka Lokayukta told PTI on Tuesday. "It is a good idea to start Bhumi Pujan as an indicator of that or foundation for developing harmony among various religions," he added.

The Supreme Court had in November last year paved the way for the construction of a Ram temple by a Trust at the disputed site of the Babri Masjid's demolition in Ayodhya. It also directed the Centre to allot an alternative 5- acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board for building a new mosque at a "prominent" place in the holy town in Uttar Pradesh. The Uttar Pradesh government has allotted a five-acre land in Dhannipur village in Sohaval Tehsil of Ayodhya for the mosque's construction.
