August 26, 2016

Mangaluru, Aug 25: In spite of the massive hate-campaign against actor-turned-politician Ramya by saffron forces, thousands of her fans thronged Kadri grounds in the city where she was the chief guest for a musical event organized by the Kadri Cricketers' Club as part of Krishna Janmashtami celebrations on Thursday night.

Addressing the gathering, the former Mandya MP thanked the people of Manglauru for their love and hospitality and described them as “very sweet people”.

Ms Ramya, who was wearing Mangaluru jasmine, impressed the crowed by uttering a few words in Tulu, the local language of this port city. She went on to claim that people of Mangaluru treated her like their own daughter.

Meanwhile, a few miscreants owning allegiance to saffron groups hurled eggs, stones and footwear at the stage where Ramya was sitting. However, police managed to bring the situation under control and reportedly detained a couple of miscreants.

Forest minister B Ramanath Ra, food minister U T Khader, MLC Ivan D'Souza among others attend the event. However, Ms Ramya was not allowed to take part in Mosaru Kudike due to security reasons, it is learnt.

Prior to this a small group of protesters belonging to Sangh Parivar attempted to block Ramya's convoy at the exit road of the Mangaluru International Airport. They also hurled eggs at the convoy when she was coming out of the Airport.

Meanwhile, speaking to media persons Ms Ramya rubbished the allegations that she compared Mangaluru to hell. She said that media is quoting her out of context.

In the interview, she had said that if a region can be called hell' just because bad things such as murder happen there you can find hell in Mangaluru too where many murders took place. She also recalled the murder of Praveen Poojary, a BJP worker who was targeted by Hindu vigilantes for being involved in transporting cattle.

She was arguing that a place or country should not be called as hell' just because of the presence of some anti-social elements there. “I haven't seen hell,” she said.

India bans 47 more Chinese apps; over 250 under scanner: Report

July 27,2020

New Delhi, Jul 27: A month after banning 59 Chinese applications, the government of Indian has now reportedly banned 47 more apps of Chinese origin in the country. According to sources, the 47 banned Chinese apps were operating as clones of the earlier banned apps.

The list of the 47 Chinese applications banned by the Indian government will be released soon.

India has also prepared a list of over 250 Chinese apps, including apps linked to Alibaba, that it will examine for any user privacy or national security violations, government sources said. The list also includes Tencent-backed gaming app PUBG.

Some top gaming Chinese applications are also expected to be banned in the new list that is being drawn up, sources said. The Chinese applications, that are being reviewed, have allegedly been sharing data with the Chinese agencies.

Today's decision follows after a high-profile ban of 59 Chinese apps including TikTok, as border tensions continued in Ladakh after a violent, fatal face-off between the Indian and Chinese armies. The government said these apps were engaged in activities that were prejudicial to the sovereignty, integrity and defence of India.

A government press release announcing the ban stated: "The Ministry of Information Technology, invoking it's power under section 69A of the Information Technology Act read with the relevant provisions of the Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards for Blocking of Access of Information by Public) Rules 2009 and in view of the emergent nature of threats has decided to block 59 apps since in view of information available they are engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order".

A day later, Google said it has removed all the banned applications from the Play Store. Following the ban, TikTok refuted the claims that suggest it will pursue legal action against the Indian government for banning the app in India.

Reacting to the 59 apps banned by India, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said the country is "strongly concerned regarding the decision of the Indian government".

“China is strongly concerned, verifying the situation,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

"We want to stress that the Chinese government always asks Chinese businesses to abide by international and local laws-regulations. The Indian government has a responsibility to uphold the legal rights of international investors including Chinese ones," Zhao Lijian said.
