Manglauru, May 23: As the tussle between two factions for wresting administrative control of the Ullal Juma Masjid and Sayyid Madani Dargah continued, Health and Family Welfare Minister UT Khader has initiated dialogues between group leaders.

dargahMr Khader, who is also the local MLA, said that appointing an administrator for the historic Dargah is not a solution for the issues pertaining to management committee.

Recently, Dakshina Kannada deputy commissioner A B Ibrahim had recommended the secretary, Minority Welfare, Hajj and Wakf Department to appoint an administrator or direct the 49 elected members for the administrative board of the Dargah to elect a president and office bearers to end the imbroglio.

The DC's concern is that with Holy month of Ramadan starting in the first week of June, the non-formation of the administrative committee would put the pilgrims to lot of hardships as required facilities will not be available. The DC also stated in a letter to the secretary that clashes may erupt between the two groups in this attempt to wrest power apart from hampering admission process to educational institutions and dispensing salaries to staff.

Mr Khader said that he will take initiatives to meet religious leaders and solve all issues pertaining to Ullal Dargah amicably.

“Appointing an administrator by the government is not a solution to the issues related to Ullal Dargah at this moment. Bringing administrator should be the last step and we need to work out other amicable solutions before that decision,” he said.

He also made it clear that it was not a clash between SKSSF and SSF and called the two Kerala based groups as two eyes of the regional Muslim community. “The differences between those two groups are not responsible for this problem,” he said.

He said that all efforts should be made to solve issues by taking all sections of the community into confidence. “We are working out a strategy and I am hopeful that we will succeed in solving issues related the Dargah administration," Mr Khader said.

Trust ALLAH and follow Prophet Muhammad... if we look back to the time of Prophet Muhammad pbuh ... there was no such thing as accepting Barakah from the GRAVE...
What prophet Muhammad pbuh taught us was \ in the early stages of ISLAM prophet did not allow to visit Graves... But in the end times of his life , when the Sahabas understood the knowledge & the POWER OF ALLAH and his attributes... He allowed to visit Graves to remember our death and Pray for the dead (Not ask from the dead)

Those who depend on ALLAH are successful... When you do that ..YOU will experience the help of ALLAH in all the matters of your LIFE.
Its a greatest blessings one can have in this life...
When you experience that even a normal MUSLIM like me Never need anybody to get BARAKAH. ALLAH Guides those who really TRUST him.
ALLAH is enough for those who rely on HIM alone. It doesnt mean that we dont love the Auliya of ALLAH... its the misconception most Dargah visitors fallen to the WASWASA....
May ALLAH keep our faith in him to deal with the matters of our LIFE even if it is small one. ( ALLAH is MOST FORGIVING and MOST MERCIFUL)"

It is not clash between SSF and SKSSF BUT it is clash between SSF against rest.
Easiest solution for current situation is calling all 49 member together and electing a president who has majority. Khader and his govt should tender its support to newly elected president with majority

Jun 4: Belur Mutt, the global headquarters of Ramakrishna Mutt and Ramakrishna Mission, has decided to throw open its gates to the devotees from June 15 after putting in place all safety measures required to contain the spread of COVID-19.

The gates of the sprawling premises of the mutt set up by Swami Vivekananada at Belur near here was closed since the lockdown was announced in March by the Centre. The Mutt has devotees from across the globe.

The secretary of Belur Mutt Ramakrishna Mutt and Ramakrishna Mission, Swami Suvirananda said in a statement that as the easing down of lockdown measures announced by the Centre and the state did not indicate the threat caused by COVID-19 pandemic is over, the authorities thought it prudent to put in place all the measures required before opening the gates of the Mutt and all RKM centres in the country for the scores of devotees.

The statement was issued on June 1, the day religious places of worship were thrown open by the West Bengal government.

"We had to think about both aspects - the issue of public health and also the wish of our devotees for having a darshan of the shrines of Swami Vivekananda, Sri Sarada Maa and Ramamrishna Paramahansa. But we believe spirituality and sceintific temparament must go hand in hand," he told reporters on Thursday.

"Therefore it is imperative for us to consult experts and put in place adequate arrangement and infrastructure" before opening the (Belur Mutt) gates," he said.

The senior monk said the timing of the opening and closure of the shrine and all other details conforming the health protocol and guidelines will be announced before opening date.

The Mutt complex had become totally out of bound for visitors from March 24 when the lockdown was clamped. There was restricted entry to it since May 16.
