Bengaluru, June 2: The Pejawar Mutt head Sunday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to promulgate a strong law for cow protection that can be implemented across India within a year.

Swami Vishwesha Teertha, one of prominent religious seers of South India,, who shares a good rapport with Modi and was among the special invitees during his swearing in ceremony in New Delhi on May 30, emphasised that the government with full majority must pay special attention towards the protection of cows.

"Government has to pay special attention towards protecting the cows.. He has full majority.. He should make up his mind within a year to promulgate a strong law for cow protection that can be implemented across India," said Pejawar seer at a public event in the temple town of Udupi.

The 89-year-old seer with a huge following rued that the government took measures to protect lion and tiger and not the cows.

He sought to know whether cows were inferior to lions and tigers.

Condemning those who send cows to slaughterhouses and eat beef, Vishwesha Teertha Swami likened them to demons.

"Those who kill cows aren't human beings. They should be placed in the category of demon. Killing and eating cow is the most disgusting thing," the seer said.

He said cow protection should not be seen just from economic or religious point of view but also from the human point of view.

Two days ago, the seer had raised the issue of Ram Temple, saying the Modi government should ensure that it was built in Ayodhya.

Udupi, Apr 2: The Udupi Administration has given its nod to lift and transport watermelons, pineapples, papaya and Mattu Gulla after growers in the district complained that their produce will go waste and start rotting due to the lockdown on account of COVID-19.

In statement issued here on Thursday, Deputy Commissioner G Jagadeesha said that the administration has already held a meeting with wholesale fruit merchants registered with the Agriculture Marketing Produce Committee (APMC).

It has directed these merchants to purchase 35 tonnes of pineapples, 55 tonnes of watermelons and 5,000 bunches of bananas from growers and sell them within the district and also send them to other districts. Such transportation has been exempted from prohibitory orders, he said.

Here's the first phase flight plan for return of Indian nationals stranded abroad

Newsroom, May 5: Following the union government's nod, preparations are afoot to bring back Indian nationals stranded abroad from May 7 onwards.

According to sources, in the first phase from May 7- 14, the government would allow more than 60 “non-scheduled, commercial” flights to operate from about 12 countries to India to bring back 15,000 citizens. At least half of those flights will be from the Gulf region, including UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman, while the rest would bring passengers from the U.S., the U.K., Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Bangladesh.

The flights would be spread over 10 States identified as having the largest numbers to return, with Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Delhi (NCR) receiving the maximum number of flights.

A meeting held at the Ministry of Civil Aviation looked specifically at flights, mainly operated by Air India, while it awaits a final plan from countries where Indians need to be airlifted from. The first flights planned at present are from Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Riyadh and Doha, flying directly to Kozhikode and Kochi.

While the full estimate of Indians needing to return home could cross ten lakhs (a million), with more than two lakhs having registered to return from the UAE alone, officials said their return would be “prioritised and staggered”.
