'Pankti bheda' is there in Dharmasthala too; Why you targeting us: Pejawar seer

October 13, 2016

Udupi, Oct 13: Nearly a week after speakers at the Chalo Udupi valedictory ceremony exhorted the Dalits to storm Udupi's Krishna Mutt if it fails to end pankti bheda', Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Pejawar Mutt has threatened to go on an indefinite fast.

pejawar Addressing media persons here on Thursday, he said that some persons at the Chalo Udupi' programme on Sunday have tried to mislead Dalits and asked them to lay siege to the historic mutt. “Now it is the duty of the government to provide security to the mutt,” he said.

While addressing the Swabhimani Sangarsha Samavesha, the valedictory programme of Chalo Udupi' on Sunday, social activist and Chalo Una organiser Jignesh Mevani gave a deadline of two months for Udupi mutts to stop the ugly practice of pankti bheda.

If it did not stop, the activists would lay siege to the mutt, Mr. Mevani had said.

The seer on Thursday questioned why activists are targeting only Udupi Mutt while pankti bheda is in practice at Dharmasthala, Sringeri and Kukke Subrahmanya temples.

He said that Dalits, Backward Class people and Brahmins were being served food at Udupi Mutt together without any discrimination. But for some traditional Brahmins food is being served separately, he added.

The seer said that Udupi Chalo had been organised to condemn the violence by gau rakshakas (cow protectors). He had already condemned the violence by such rakshakas, he said, adding that the mutt has been drawn into this controversy unnecessarily.

The seer questioned the link between pankti bedha and violence by gau rakshakas.

The seer alleged that some intellectuals were trying to divide the Hindu community by spreading hateredness between Dalits and Brahmins. They are also trying to divide Muslims and Brahmins, the seer added.

Finally he had to expose the real face of Hindu dharma and its temples.

BJP leader Kapil Mishra who incited violence in Delhi gets Y-grade security

News Network

March 3,2020

New Delhi, Mar 3: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kapil Mishra, who instigated violence in northeast Delhi by provoking mobs, has now been provided with 24x7 security. After he claimed threat to his life, he has been provided with “Y” category security — which entitles him to six security personnel round-the-clock to guard him in and outside the city.

He had fought the 2020 Delhi Assembly elections by giving inflammatory remarks around the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act in Shaheen Bagh, and lost to Aam Aadmi Party candidate. But he continued to issue provocative remarks.

While there is clear evidence of his scandalous statements just a day before the violence was unleashed on Muslims in Delhi last week where around 50 people were killed, no action has been taken against him so far. Instead, he is being treated as a hero in his party.

As per sources, Mishra complained that he got life threats over the past week in wake of the violence and based on his request, the Delhi Police has provided the security cover.

Mishra had taken to social media platform Twitter and alleged that he was receiving threats via WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook, from Indian and foreign accounts.

“I am constantly being threatened with murder on the phone, on WhatsApp, on email. Hundreds of threats are being given continuously from the country and abroad. I don’t fear this hate campaign against me,” he had said on Twitter on March 1.

Mishra had on February 23 made an incendiary speech, following which North-East Delhi witnessed anti-Muslim violence.

The Supreme Court of India on Monday said it will on Wednesday (March 4) hear a plea that sought immediate FIRs against Kapil Mishra, Union Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur and other leaders for their recent hate speech, which allegedly triggered the violence in Delhi. The plea was filed by Delhi violence survivors.

The apex court bench, comprising Chief Justice SA Bobde, listed the matter for hearing after senior advocate Colin Gonsalves, who is appearing on behalf of the survivors told the SC that the Delhi High Court had last week adjourned the matter for six weeks even as “people are dying every day”.
