Those who killed cow and ate beef were Hindu Jagarana Vedike members

July 28, 2016

Chikkamagaluru, Jul 28: The members of a Dalit family in Koppa taluk of Chikkamagaluru district, who were attacked by Bajrang Dal activists for slaughtering cow and eating beef, have revealed that they were also members of a hard-line Hindutva outfit.

Gurumurthy, one among the five Dalits attacked on July 10 in Shantipura colony, was in fact one of the founders of Hindu Jagarana Vedike's branch in Kunduru village near here. Four years ago, he conducted an event in the village organising all Dalits.

However, the family members gradually distanced themselves from the Hindutva activities after facing discrimination by the leaders of the Vedike.

“We stopped participating in the events of Hindu Jagarana Vedike after we realised that the leaders were opposed to our food habits,” the family members said.

“If they are Hindus, what are we then? Even though we eat beef we are also Hindus. Many Hindus eat beef in our region,” they claimed.

23-year-old Dhanush, who suffered severe injuries in Bajrang Dal attack, admitted that beef was part of their diet and food culture. “If consuming it is against law, let the police take action. How can anyone else beat us up?”

Many Dalit families in the village have expressed solidarity with the victims and claimed that beef had been part of their food culture for ages. “Beef is affordable and healthily. We can't afford mutton (sheep or goat), which costs more than Rs 400 a kg,” said a housewife.

A few Dalit families held upper caste families in the neighbourhood responsible for atrocities on them. “The upper caste people in the village do not tolerate if we move around wearing good clothes. They look for some reason to assault us,” lamented Mr Gurumurthy.

Comments

Once the cow became sacred and the Broken Men continued to eat beef, there was no other fate left for the Broken Men except to be treated unfit for association, i.e., as Untouchables. There was a time when the ancestors of the present day Untouchables were not Untouchables vis-a-vis the villagers but were merely Broken Men, no more and no less, and the only difference between them and the villagers was that they belonged to differ

The Dalit should not fear in exposing their Discriminations... cheddis hold outs are getting fired from the bottom... and they already started feeling the burn when muslims started to oppose their discrimination. We Muslims & Dalits should unite to fight their discrimination agenda... We Muslims know their hatred propaganda.. but WE believe ALLAH will take care of their evil agenda. Till now we know many things are exposed. When it is out of their hands they resort to acts like Cowards like killing.

The same Gujarat dalit was used against Muslims in Godhra communal riots. Big fishes supplied all the weapons to Dalit prior riots and Dalits used that opportunity more than big Fish's expectations. Thousands of lives irrespective women, child, old age, youths, teens burned everywhere and thousands of rapes, loot since law and order tied up by Gujarat CM.

Withdraw sedition case against Shaheen; Why Kalladka School spared?: Siddaramaiah

News Network

February 15,2020

Bidar, Feb 15: Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly Siddaramaiah on Friday demanded the State government to withdraw the sedition case against a mother and a teacher of Shaheen school immediately.

“The police can’t execute anything without the government’s permission. The sedition case against two women should be withdrawn immediately. I will raise the matter in the Assembly to draw the government’s attention,” Siddaramaiah told reporters after meeting the woman at the prison here.

He clarified that he visited the woman not to support the school, but to extend moral support to her.

“I am an advocate and I can clearly establish based on my experience that staging a satirical play doesn’t amount for sedition. It doesn’t even defame anybody. Three cases of sedition have been registered across the state,” he charged.

He alleged that the government was following dual policy. Though the Supreme Court had concluded that the demolition of Babri Masjid was illegal, a play dealing with the demolition was staged at Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat’s school.
The sedition case had not been registered for staging the play.

He charged that there was an undeclared emergency in the country as the freedom of expression was being suppressed.

Notorious honey-trap gang busted in Dakshina Kannada; 2 held; 3 absconding

News Network

January 10,2020

Mangaluru, Jan 10: Two members of a notorious honey-trap gang that used to lure rich men using women and then extort money from them by staging fake police raid have been arrested by the Dakshina Kannada district police.

Lohith, a resident of Kushalnagara, and Sharif from Vittal, were arrested in connection with a honey-trap case registered in Uppinangady police station. Jamal, Jeevan and Naushad, who were also involved in the case, are absconding.

Police said they received information that a few people under the guise of being Kerala police, were planning to raid a resort near Uppinangady where two couples were staying.

They were informed that they would threaten and try to extort money from them. The police were tipped off about the same by their counterparts in Kerala.

Police said the accused are experts in setting honeytraps, and were involved in similar crimes since a long time. Their modus operandi was to use two women from Mangaluru to lure their intended targets.

Once they trap their target, the woman and victim are sent to resorts. They then raid the resort posing as police officials, and click pictures in compromising positions of the victim with the woman.

They threaten to release the pictures on social media or TV channels, if they fail to pay up.

Police said the accused demanded Rs 10 lakh from each victim, but they denied to pay up. Irked by this, the accused took away the victims’ belongings such as phone, money and car.

The victims who believed that the accused were police personnel, asked them to take them to the police station. Instead of taking them to the police, the accused took them to a secluded place, where they claimed that they were putting the victims under house arrest. Police have seized an SUV from the accused.

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

coastaldigest.com news network

May 5,2020

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”.
