Vidya Dinker seeks Home Minister’s intervention to stop saffronists’ Lie Jihad in coastal Karnataka

Mangaluru, Dec 30: Vidya Dinker, activist and convener of the Citizens Forum For Mangalore Development, has sought Karnataka Home Minister Ramalinga Reddy’s immediate intervention to prevent saffron outfits from spreading communal hatred and lies in the name of Love Jihad.

Love Jihad is a term that is widely used by rightwing outfits like Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal to create an impression in the society that Muslim boys target young girls belonging to Hindu community for conversion to Islam by feigning love. However, Muslims dismiss the allegation as ‘lie jihad’ by saffron outfits aimed at creating hatred between communities for political gains.

In a memorandum addressed to Home Minister and submitted to Mangaluru City Police Commissioner T R Suresh on Friday, Ms Dinker alleged that right wing elements are actively trying to import and embed the fake concept of ‘love jihad’ into coastal district of Dakshina Kannada to instigate communal tensions. Recently two incidents (of interfaith affairs) have been blown out of proportion under this concept and there is every likelihood of the situation getting out of control if their activities are not curbed, she said.

“A local godman called Rajashekaranand Swami of Vajradehi Mutt has announced the formation of his Special Task Force (STF) against so called Love Jihad to keep an eye on and rein in Hindu girls. If this is allowed to go unchecked, we can expect more of organised trouble in the near future,” she pointed out in the memorandum.

She also said that the citizens of Mangaluru were deeply disappointed with the police department as the incidents of immoral policing were being reported frequently for the past few months.

“The Mangaluru region was notorious for immoral policing of right wing outfits. This was one of the reasons for the huge victory of Congress Party in the previous assembly elections as people had placed their hopes in your party to curb right wing mafia activities. Though your government has given us a brief spell of peace, we are alarmed to see anti-social elements once again attempting to take charge of the city and dismayed to observe the inability of the police to respond effectively to its growing menace to the public,” the memorandum stated.

It is not lie jihad. Its love jihad only. One of the top sdpi leader's (kerala) video shows that they only claimed that they are doing conversion. One media exposed that. In that video they are told, if rss not there, they could have turn entire india into muslim country. Soon that going to happen in karnataka. Those people working behind for that.

PM Modi assured to consider all demands of Karnataka: Yediyurappa

News Network

January 3,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 3: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday clarified that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has assured him to consider all the demands made by his government.

"Prime Minister spoke to me personally and assured me of all help and suggested that I visit New Delhi and meet the concerned Ministers and apprise them about the state's problems and pending projects. He also directed me to prepare a detail report on this matter," Yediyurappa said in a statement.

He claimed that a section of media has misinterpreted his speech which was plain and honest towards the development of the state.

"A section of media has attached motive to my speech which was plain and honest in its content. Being in federal set up, there is nothing wrong with placing the facts before the Prime Minister and making submissions," the Chief Minister said.

"As a Chief Minister, I placed our state's problems and need for more funds for developmental activities. I pleaded before the Prime Minister for more funds to the relief work, the scientific and remunerative price for the farm produces, and special fund of Rs 50,000 crore for speeding up of on-going irrigation work. As it was farmers' meet, I felt it worthy and timely to plead the Prime Minister for more funds for all the developmental activities in the state," he said.

Asserting that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a great visionary and his concern for the poor and farmers is unquestionable, he said: "When the whole world is appreciating his statesmanship and visionary zeal, it is in very bad taste for the media to attribute motives to my speech and relate it to the Prime Minister."

Yediyurappa requested media to show support to his government in the interest of the development of the state.

"I humbly request the electronic and print media not to misinterpret but support the government in the interest of the development of the state and interests of the people. I hope the media will respond to my request," he said.
