Mangaluru, Sep 24: Brushing aside the rumours of existence of a so called conversion racket' in Sullia taluk, a senior police officer in Dakshina Kannada district has said that not a single instance of forced conversion has come to light so far.

bhushanThe district unit of Bharatiya Janata Party had recently demanded the police to take stringent action against those who indulge in religious conversion activities.

District BJP president Sanjeev Matandoor had also alleged that the groups that encourage conversion were enjoying political patronage. Hence, the police not taking any action against them, he claimed.

Rubbishing the allegations, Superintendent of Police Bhushan Gulabrao Borase said that so far there has been no complaint of forcible conversion from any youth.

Mere allegations have been made by some organisations like Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal about some groups indulging in forcible conversion and they are being inquired into, he said.

Another police officer said that in one instance a youth was assaulted by Hindutva groups for embracing Islam.

"Satish Acharya, aka Muhammad Mustakim, a resident of Mandekolu village in Sullia taluk has made it clear that he accepted Islam on his own will and without any pressure. He also has accused the Hindutva groups of attacking him," he said.

In this case book the hate mongers and levy heavy penalty on them. They should be jailed for not less than 10 years with penalty of not less that 50 lacs for the loss of property done by the follower of these hate mongers. Take away their voting right and kick them out of karnataka.

If there are no instances of forcible conversions, what action they are going to take against those who accuse without any evidences? What action they are going to take against those hate mongers who incite communal hatred by using falsified allegations? At least a warning that it won't be repeated again or an public apology?

Prem and true (anti) Indian are doing religious propaganda here. coastaldigest.com should not entertain such comments. This is not a religious forum. They are encouraging religious conversions. DK police should take necessary action against such comments.

ISLAM is the only religion accepted by God...
Eternal life begins when death happens...
Dont worship the creation of God, thats the only sin which will not be forgiven by God... (associating partners with God...)
Know who is our CREATOR before bowing down to created things..
God is merciful and most compassionate... A honest heart will find God if his intention is right to know about God...

To know about God and his attributes read religious scripture specially the QURAN (the quranproject online) a manual to MANKIND... Read to understand about Creator not to Hate... please, as a human brother ... keep away your hatred and make effort to know who is our CREATOR rather than falling prey to some hate mongers...

USE YOUR GOD GIVEN INTELLECT...

Surah barakah 2:256

There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion.

Forcing anyone to convert is not allowed in islam.

No other religion book says so.

Bengaluru, Jul 5: A 50-year-old woman with breathing difficulties died on Saturday after a shortage of beds forced 12 hospitals to refuse admission.

Her husband Babu said the family had approached 12 hospitals in three days, including Victoria Hospital and other private facilities, who all slammed their doors on them, citing a shortage of beds. The woman died on Saturday, a few minutes into her admission at KC General Hospital.

Second death 

A 35-year-old man, Manjunath, also died on Saturday after enduring fever for three days and being refused admission at several hospitals due to a shortage of beds.

As his condition worsened, his wife admitted him to a private hospital on Saturday after hours of ordeal. But the man died less than 15 minutes after getting admitted. Hospital authorities took swab samples from the deceased and said the body would be handed over after the test results.

BBMP personnel also failed to shift the body of a Covid-19 patient in Kalasipalya almost a day after the death.

Despite civic workers disinfecting the place, the neighbours were in a state of panic after the body was kept at home.

Bengaluru, Mar 7: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday said that the Upper Krishna Project (UKP) will be completed within the next three years.

Speaking in the Assembly, the Chief Minister said: "After discussing with the officials of the finance department, we have decided to allocate Rs 10,000 crore funds for the third phase of UKP. This project will be completed within a span of three years."

Yediyurappa also said that the government will hold talks for additional funds from the Central government.

The leader of Opposition, Siddaramaiah, interrupted and said that the CM has announced this just to gain the confidence of MLAs from north Karnataka.

"The government could have announced it in the budget itself or else the Chief Minister could have announced it at the time of discussion on the budget. Where are the funds with the government to complete the project? CM has announced this just to gain the confidence of MLAs who hail from north Karnataka," said Siddaramaiah.

Deputy Chief Minister Govinda Karajol while speaking to the media welcomed the Chief Minister's statement and said that the earlier government didn't allocate a single penny in the last seven years he added.
