Mangalore, Jul 16: “We need to shed our laziness, inhibitions and develop attitude of questioning to bring about a revolution for Human rights and equality,” said Prof Narendra Nayak, Convener of Balakedarara Shikshana Prathishtana.

Addressing the inaugural programme of the city unit of Rashtriya Manava Hakku Balakedarara Kendra on Monday in the city, Prof Nayak said that consumer rights are similar to human rights in many ways. He said that due to lethargy and laziness of common man human rights violation has been happening persistently.

“Many a times, those who want to raise their voice against the same keep quite due to other personal commitments. We can certainly not protect our rights if we do not question,” he said.

Centre was inaugurated by Kendra's national President Shankar Shetty who said that Rashtriya Manava Hakku Balakedarara Kendra was formed in 1997 and has been connected to Human Rights Commission.

“Due to the Human Rights Commission police atrocities have been curbed to a very large extent,” he said.

Centre Mangalore Unit President U Padmanabha Shetty Niddodi welcomed the gathering.

Deeds Director Merlyn Martis, Convener of the Centre Dayananda Shetty, Vice-President Jayalakshmi S Hegde, Secretary Harish Kumar Shetty, Treasurer K M Devikiran Shetty among others were present.

Vijayapura, June 18: Shoukat Ali Sumbad, a local farmer, has donated land for the construction of Chennamma memorial, modelled on the Kittur fort, at Sindagi town in Vijayapura to celebrate the town's connect with the valorous Lingayat queen who fought the British in 1824.

Basava Jaya Mrutyunjaya Swamiji of Lingayat Panchamasali Peetha Kudala Sangam said Shoukat Ali came forward to donate his land adjacent to the state highway when local authorities failed to provide land for the memorial. 

"The committee led by Basava Jaya Mrutyunjaya Swamiji sought a 15x10 plot but when I went through their plan of constructing a model of Kittur fort, I decided to donate 425 sq ft," said the 61-year-old farmer. 

"Rani Chennamma is the pride of every Indian, irrespective of caste and creed, and my contribution is nothing compared to her sacrifice for the nation," he added.

Shoukat Ali, who lives in the neighbouring town of Almel, said he is a man of modest means but proud to make the contribution. "I own nine acres of land in Almel. I have six sons and two daughters. Two of my sons run small businesses in Mumbai. Ten of us live in a small house in Almel," he said.

“I also work as a broker to sell or buy sites. I had bought 15 guntas of land in Sindagi for my children some 15 years ago. When our MLA MC Managuli and Swamiji sought land for the memorial, my entire family agreed wholeheartedly” Shoukat Ali said.

“As Chennamma’s history is linked to Sindagi, there has been a demand for a memorial here since 2008, but the town municipal council failed to provide land due to political and technical reasons,” said Swamiji. 

“There were plans to observe a Sindagi bandh in the first week of June to protest the indifference of authorities. But then Sumbad gave us his land. We have formed a committee to construct a model of Kittur fort and a bronze statue of Chennamma at a cost of Rs 28 lakh,” he added.
