Udupi, May 2: Bharatiya Janata Party had called chief minister an anti-Hindu for not paying a visit to Sri Krishna Temple during his recent Udupi to Udupi. Ironically, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who visited the town on May 1 too refused to visit the temple in spite of invitation.

Vidyadheesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Palimar Mutt has expressed his disappointment over PM Modi not visiting the historic temple.

“I had expectations that Prime Minister might come. I had invited both Mr Modi and Mr Siddaramaiah to visit the Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple,” he said.

Meanwhile, Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Pejawar Mutt said that he too had written to Mr. Modi, inviting him to the temple.

In a press release issued here, the district unit of the Congress questioned why Mr. Modi did not visit the temple, especially when the BJP had made a big issue of Mr. Siddaramaiah not visiting it.

Mangaluru, July 30: The Social Democratic Party of India has condemned the move by the state government to drop a lesson on legendary Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 textbook.

The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapter from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed. 

In a media release statement, SDPI State President Ilyas Mohammed Thumbe termed the move as communally motivated. “By dropping the lesson, the BJP-led government is engaged in saffronisation of education,” he alleged.

He said that Tipu was the most prominent freedom fighter, who had given priority to irrigation, rocket technology and harmony. The BJP government is also planning to scrap lessons on the Constitution, secularism and democracy. By twisting history, the BJP is trying to mislead the younger generation, he added.

Mangaluru, May 2: Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal, a prominent Muslim religeous leader in coastal Karnataka has urged the Dakshina Kannada district administration not to end the covid-19 lockdown before the end of the blessed month of Ramadan. 

The appeal comes in the wake of reports that the state government may allow opening of clothe shops during the month of Ramadan to felicitate Muslims for Eid shopping.

"Muslims in the district have completely cooperated with the district administration in making the lockdown sucessfull. They have refrained from going to mosque even for Juma and Taraveeh during Ramadan. Such a lockdown is necessary to contain the pandemic," said Musliyar, who is also the Khazi of Udupi and Chikkamagaluru.

If the district administration withdraws lockdwon or relaxes it, people in large numbers may storm cloth shops wherein it physical distancing will be difficult, Musliyar warned.

He said that Muslims in the region have decided to observe Eid ul Fitr, a festival which marks the end of the blessed month, in a simple way maintaining physical distance. Hence the lockdown should be relaxed only after the festival, he suggested.
