Uudpi, Apr 23: Former BJP MLA K Raghupati Bhat has urged Lakshmivara Tirtha Swami of Shiroor Mutt to withdraw nomination and support him in the upcoming Karnataka legislative elections.

The seer, who was a BJP ticket aspirant, has filed nomination papers as an independent candidate from Udupi constituency. He had earlier said he was inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but was not happy with the functioning of the local unit of the BJP and that it was mired in corruption.

Speaking to presspersons, Mr. Bhat said the seer was expecting the BJP ticket but did not get it. “So he should support me as I am the BJP candidate. That is the culture of the BJP,” he said.

To a query, Mr. Bhat said the Shiroor seer contesting as an Independent candidate would not help Congress candidate Pramod Madhwaraj as the seer would eat into not just BJP votes but also Congress votes.

He said he would seek the blessings of the Shiroor seer and the seers of the Ashta mutts. Some top leaders of the BJP have tried talk to the Shiroor seer and pacify him, Mr. Bhat added.

Mangaluru, Jun 28: The patience and presence of mind exhibited by the family members of youth covid-19 victim thwarted the attempt by a few miscreants to create communal disharmony in the coastal city today.

A 31-year-old youth from Idya in Surathkal, who was under treatment for covid-19 at designated Wenlock Hospital in the city, passed away last night. 

Even though there is a Muslim graveyard under the jurisdiction of Idya mosque, it was waterlogged due to heavy rains. 

Hence, the Idya mosque management had obtained permission from Mangaluru’s Bolar mosque management to bury the mortal remains of the youth in Bolar graveyard. 

All necessary arrangements were made at the Bolar graveyard for the burial this morning. Meanwhile, a few residents of Bolar belonging to another community staged a protest against bringing covid-19 victim’s mortal remains to Bolar.

Mohammad Husain, general secretary of Bolar mosque, said that the family members of the departed youth exhibited their presence of mind and urged the Muslims of Bolar to preserve communal harmony.

“The Bolar mosque committee had given green signal for the burial and all arrangements were made. Meanwhile, a few people staged protest and warned us against burying the covid-19 victim’s body. When the aggrieved family members came to know this, they immediately cancelled the plan,” he said. 

“The aggrieved family requested us to uphold communal amity and co-existence. They decided to bury the body in Idya itself. Then the protesters also returned,” he said.

Burial in Bolar after DC’s intervention

When the mortal remains were being taken towards Surathkal in the ambulance, the Deputy Commissioner of Dakshina Kannada ordered the authorities concerned to take a U-turn and bring back mortal remains to Bolar.  

The DC said it was wrong to take the mortal remains to another place after making all necessary armaments in Bolar graveyard. In order to pacify the porters it was decided to dig another grave on the other side of the graveyard, sources said.
