Mangaluru, Aug 20: A former leader of Bharatiya Janata Party has revealed that some Sangh Parivar activists in coastal Karnataka were hand-in-glove in the illegal cattle trade.

krambhatIn his response to the murder of a BJP worker by a group of cow vigilantes in Udupi, K Rama Bhat Urimajalu, former two-time MLA from Puttur, sarcastically said that one should practice in life what the preach to others.

Mr Bhat, who had won on the Janata Party ticket in 1978 and on the Bharatiya Janata Party ticket in 1983, had played a major role in building the saffron party in the coastal district. He was the first in the Sangh Parivar to become an MLA in Karnataka, even before the national party BJP was formed.

The octogenarian leader, who distanced from BJP and floated the Swabhimani Vedike nearly a decade ago in protest against the “dirty politics” of the saffron party, also said that some Hindu youths were misguided by their leaders.

He also said that Sangh Parivar should show the courage to own up its wrong-doing. “You cannot stop illegal cattle trafficking by taking law into hands or attacking and killing people. If there are any instances of illegal transportation of cattle, you can inform the police,” he said.

A group of cow vigilantes owing allegiance to Hindutva groups on Wednesday had lynched Praveen Poojary, 29, a BJP worker, to death for indulging in illegal cattle transpiration in Udupi district on August 17. Police have arrested around 25 people in connection with the incident.

New Delhi, Jul 29: Air Commodore Hilal Ahmad Rather has become a buzz name in Kashmir overnight. Hilal saw off the first batch of Rafale jets which took off from France to India on Monday. Among other things, he has also been associated with the weaponisation of the Rafale aircraft for acclimatisation to Indian requirements.

Hilal is presently India's Air Attache in France.

The career details of this officer of the Indian Air Force (IAF) read like the decoration scroll of the best flying officer anywhere in the world.

Born in the south Kashmir's Anantnag district to middle-class parents, Hilal's father, late Mohammad Abdullah Rather retired as a deputy superintendent of police (Dy SP) in J&K police department. He has three sisters and is the only son of his parents. Hilal studied in Sainik School in Nagrota town of Jammu district.

He was commissioned in IAF as a fighter pilot on December 17, 1988, became flight lieutenant in 1993, wing commander in 2004, group captain in 2016 and air commodore in 2019.

He graduated from defence services staff college (DSSC). He also graduated from air war college (USA) with distinction. He won the sword of honour in NDA. Hilal is also the recipient of Vayu Sena Medal and Vishisht Seva medal.

With an impeccable record of 3,000 accident-free flying hours on mirage-2000, MIG-21 and Kiran aircraft, Hilal's name will now forever be associated with Rafale in India.
