Mangaluru, Apr 2: As per the direction of Karnataka High Court, the administration of Mahalingehwara Temple at Puttur re-printed the invitation cards of its annual jatra mahotsava without the name of Deputy Commissioner AB Ibrahim and started distributing them. The festival of the temple will start on April 10.

abiThe new cards were printed in the name of Administrator, Executive Officer and priests. Additional Deputy Commissioner Kumar, who is discharging duty as Deputy Commissioner of Endowment, said that arrangements are in place for the smooth conduct of the festival.

Several Hindutva groups including Vishwa Hindu Parishad had strongly opposed the government move to print the name of a Muslim DC on the invitation card for the temple festival. They claimed that the move was contrary to Section 7 of the Karnataka Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Act.

Later a writ petition was filed in HC, which was followed by public interest litigation petition, challenging Mr. Ibrahim's name on the invitation card. The State government initially defended Mr. Ibrahim's name on the invitation card saying that it was as per protocol as the temple was managed by the Muzrai department.

The government then submitted in the High Court that it was its mistake to have included the name of Mr. Ibrahim in the invitation card. The High Court in its March 30 order asked the government to print additional invitation cards without the name of the Deputy Commissioner on them.

Al-hamdullillah....
Thanks to ALLAH...
It is better to avoid in the matters of SHIRK - Associating partners with ALLAH, the God who Created all that exists and that is in between the skies and the Earth..

The hindu holy book says : that people who are materialistic WORSHIP demigods - Gods besides the TRUE GOD.

The upanishads says:
Ekam evadvitiyam : He is one only without a second (Chandogya Upanishad 6:2:1)1
Na casya kascij janita na cadhipah : Of him there are neither parents nor lord. - (Svestasvatara upanishad 6:9)2
Na tasya PRATIMA asti : There is no likeness or image of HIM - (Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:19)2

Ma cid anyad vi sansata sakhayo ma rishanyata : O friends do not WORSHIP anybody but him, the divine ONE. Praise HIM alone.

Bengaluru, Mar 13: Senior IPS officer KSR Charan Reddy, who was the Additional Director General of Police in Criminal Investigation Department, Karnataka passed away in Bengaluru on Friday after prolonged illness. 

He was reportedly battling cancer for at least three years now and had suffered multiple recurs after treatment. 

"Shri Charan Reddy, IPS, ADGP, Karnataka State, passed away this morning, after a prolonged illness. He was one of our finest officers. Always stood tall and held his head high!! May his soul rest in peace," Retired IPS officer and former Director General of Police (Fire Services) MN Reddi tweeted. 

IPS officer Charan Reddy was heading the Special Investigation Team of the Lokayukta when he arrested Vijayanagara MLA Anand Singh in 2015 for illegally transporting iron ore out of Ballari. The illegal mining scam had rocked the former BJP government in 2011.

Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa condoled his death and said that he was an honest officer in the state. "Charan Reddy was a dedicated and honest officer. I pray that his soul rests in peace. I pray that god gives his family the strength to go through such a turbulent time after his departure," BS Yediyurappa tweeted. 

A 1993-batch IPS officer, Charan Reddy KSR is originally from Chittoor and has served under various departments of the state's police force. He was serving as the Inspector General of Police in Belagavi division in 2013, when he was transferred to Bengaluru as the IGP (Training). In 2014, he was posted as the IGP of the SIT probing the illegal mining scam in which former Tourism Minister Gali Janardhana Reddy is also allegedly involved.

He was transferred out of the SIT in Lokayukta in 2016 and posted as Additional Commissioner of Police (law and order) in Bengaluru. He served as the ADGP of Crime in Mangaluru in 2018 and was later appointed as the Additional Director General of Police (training) the same year. In 2019, he was transferred and appointed as the ADGP of CID.
