October 26, 2016

Dubai, Oct 26: It's official. Abu Dhabi Karnataka Sangha, a premium organisation of non-resident Kannadigas (NRKs) in United Arab Emirates, has decided to drop Yuva Birgade leader Chakravarty Sulibele from its guests' list for the impendingKarnataka Rajyotsava' celebration in the wake of fierce opposition from several Kannadiga expats.

chakrasoooli “We had invited Mr Sulibele as chief guest for the Rajyotsava and award event to be held on November 4 at Indian Social and Cultural Centre in Abu Dhabi. But, now we have decided to drop him,” said an office-bearer of the Sangha.

Sarvotham Shetty, a philanthropist and leader of the Sangha, said that they had decided to invite Mr Sulibele for Rajyotsava event after the latter took part in a programme in Dubai a few months ago. “We did not think its negative aspects. Some people made it a big issue. Now we cancelled his visit,” he texted in a WhatsApp group.

Another member of Sangha told Coastaldigest.com on condition of anonymity that the intention behind inviting Mr Sulibele for Kannada related event just to entertain and educate the audience and not to spread hatred. “I know that Mr Sulibele sometimes delivers provocative speeches. But, he can speak good things too,” he said.

Meanwhile, NRKs in UAE have hailed the Sangha for respecting the sentiments of the secular expatriates and cancelling the scheduled visit of Mr Sulibele, who is known for communally provocative speeches.

“I wholeheartedly appreciate Abu Dhabi Karnataka Sangha and Sarvotham Shetty for positively responding to the request of stopping Sulibele. It is a great gesture. It is not an easy decision to change a major programme in the last moment. My salutes sir,” (sic) texted an NRK in response to Mr Shetty's decision.

“By stopping Mr Sulibele, the Sangha has upheld the unity of all Kannadigas in UAE. This proves the broadmindedness of Mr Shetty and other office-bearers of Sangha,” opined Mohammed Saleem, another NRK in Abu Dhabi.

Intolerance condemned

Meanwhile, a Kannadiga Muslim cleric in Dubai has expressed his displeasure over the aggressive response to Sangha's invitation to Mr Sulibele.

“I came to know that some youths called the office-bearers of Sangha and tried to threaten them. This is not acceptable. If you resort to such an aggressive behaviour, then what is the difference between you and Mr Sulibele,” he questioned.

“The Sangha has respected the feelings of NRKs and cancelled Mr Sulibele's visit. We must appreciate them for this bold decision,” he added.

Ms Shetty,

Question is not about the cancellation of his entry , our question is ADKS being in muslim country how could they even think of inviting such a hate monger and how they even call him a orator and nationalist. such people are termed as hate momgers.

If you dont Understand see the Comment #7Mohammad Abudhabi.

Why Kannada Sanga don't take Quick Action.

Vidya Shetty, could you please explain the ground reality....

As we all aware this is a first try from rss agent to know the impact. Last month they tried in a different way by inviting local ruled family for Hindu Religious function and the chief guest shown his respect and honour to all the gathering and to Hindu religious leader. We all know and understood, it is the humanity and respect to other religions who are residing in their country. But few acting committee members of this function are from rss communal group with their crooked mind and bad intention to create problems in between NRI community.

What qualified peace loving NRI citizens are in UAE for their better prospect and future are well aware of rss communal group and their intention - which NRI 's never allow to succeed. If it is backing by any tycoon or what ever else.

Jai Hind!

thanks Kannada sanga.. for not allowing sulibele.. plz don't make this kind of decision next time because here we all Indians are together.. don't destroy it

Ms.Shetty
It is not hatred, it is just the sheer frustration that is spilled out against the incident. He was very adamant & aloof in the beginning despite our
Kind requests & reminders. It has taken so much effort, energy and trauma to make him change his decision on so called \great orator & Nationalist\""

I really dont understand why these hate commenters are still behind the organisers when they have cancelled Chakravarty Sulibele's visit . I think those who are posting comments neither reading the article nor trying to understand the ground reality.

Those who tried to glorify Sulibele should apologize. In its invitation Kannada sangha portrayed Sulibele as Nationalist Thinker and great orator.

Dear Sarvotham Shetty,

When you know that Sulibele speaks Provocative speech than why even you thought to invite him. you just tried to promote him and Secular minded stopped it.

i'm sure again next year you will invite some other Sangh pariwar leader. this will continue same way if your role models are sanghpariwar scholars.

Sangha Dropped Sulibele from Function. But this action is not clearing our doubts. Need to closely monitor their all activities in UAE and India. Because, how they invited a communal hatemonger to UAE..?? Question is still remaining.. should informed to concerned authority.

It is a known fact that Mr Sarvottam Shetty has friendship with Sangh Parivar leaders. I feel there was Sangha's communal motive behind Soolibele's invitation. But he forgot the fact that he is in a Muslim country. He wouldn't have cancelled Soolibele's speech, had it been in India.

Rajyotsava Award for what ?? What good things he has done to karnataka? Except spreading hatred speeches he has done zero good things. His mind is communal. I appreciate the decision of kannada sangh for not inviting this anti social element.

Great Humiliation and tight slap on the face of Sulibele.

it is not the good will prevailed to Sarvothama,only pressure from all quarters of society forced him to take this decision . He learnt a good lesson. My request to him is -please treat all kannadigas equally with respect, irrespective of their caste,creed or religion.

Still i thank him for the decision taken.

Good, it shows the unity of Kannadigas...

Surprise is how they thought of inviting him despite he is well known for his attitude and quality. This means for kannada sanga he is a noble person.

Dubai janeka sapna adhoora rehgaya.. Naren Khan.. pelase apply visa to singapore to sulibele

We appriciate the step had taken by the organizers.... we are not against hindus we are against communal minded people who divide us in the name of religion for their own benifits... there are many able hindu personalities who has done good job to society call them as chief guest we are more than happy.... dont call such type of communal minded criminals to such a great event.... who will spoil the taste of the event

All Kannadigas requested Sarvothama Shetty to Stop Komuvadi Sulibele.. even
After that Sarvothama Shetty Published The Invitation
That's why all Kannadigas were Disappointed by Sarvothama Shetty.

Finally Good Decision By Kannada Sanga and Sarvothama Shetty.

Bold decision ...............................

as said by some Hindutwa Bhakths .....Indian Cows are only Go matha ....so when Sulibele come outside then his Air will go out

Dear Office bearers of ADKS, “I wholeheartedly appreciate your team for positively responding to the secular Kannadigas request of stopping Sulibele. It is a great gesture.

“By stopping provocative communal Sulibele, the ADKS has upheld the unity of all Kannadigas in UAE.

In future also when you select the speaker kindly review their back ground in order to avoid such embarrassment.

Why these organisations are not calling and fund Mr. Hajabba who is recognised by world? Why these organisations calls Sulibele, Kateel, Shenava and other Muslim haters for events?
Why don't they call Kanhaiya kumar? Why don't they call Odissa man who carried his wife's dead body for miles?

Sarvotham Shetty sir, you proved to be SARVOTHAM in ALL respect and saved the Kannada Sangha Abu Dhabi. Strong lesson to hatemongers and anti-social elements who earns their bread by dividing people on communal lines. B.R. Shetty sir - Please maintain distance from these elements - the love and respect you earned from all sections of Indians should not be allowed to be destroyed by few anti-humans. Long Live Kannada Sangha Abu Dhabi!!!

very good decission by Sangha... Person like Sulibele should not be allowed to enter for secular people's programme who loves peace & harmony among different community... Soolibele is worst person who think about divide & rule by giving hatred speeches against muslims & christians....

There are so many good thinkers in our state who are more eligible for guests... Soolibele is not even fit as a spectator.... Personally i appreciate decision of Sangha for cancelling his arrival....

All the best Sangha & office bearers & NRI ..

\Be United against peace breakers & hatred mongers\""

Thanks Kannada Sanga and Specilaly Sarothama Shetty for Right Decision -But Delay.

BJP leader Kapil Mishra who incited violence in Delhi gets Y-grade security

News Network

March 3,2020

New Delhi, Mar 3: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kapil Mishra, who instigated violence in northeast Delhi by provoking mobs, has now been provided with 24x7 security. After he claimed threat to his life, he has been provided with “Y” category security — which entitles him to six security personnel round-the-clock to guard him in and outside the city.

He had fought the 2020 Delhi Assembly elections by giving inflammatory remarks around the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act in Shaheen Bagh, and lost to Aam Aadmi Party candidate. But he continued to issue provocative remarks.

While there is clear evidence of his scandalous statements just a day before the violence was unleashed on Muslims in Delhi last week where around 50 people were killed, no action has been taken against him so far. Instead, he is being treated as a hero in his party.

As per sources, Mishra complained that he got life threats over the past week in wake of the violence and based on his request, the Delhi Police has provided the security cover.

Mishra had taken to social media platform Twitter and alleged that he was receiving threats via WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook, from Indian and foreign accounts.

“I am constantly being threatened with murder on the phone, on WhatsApp, on email. Hundreds of threats are being given continuously from the country and abroad. I don’t fear this hate campaign against me,” he had said on Twitter on March 1.

Mishra had on February 23 made an incendiary speech, following which North-East Delhi witnessed anti-Muslim violence.

The Supreme Court of India on Monday said it will on Wednesday (March 4) hear a plea that sought immediate FIRs against Kapil Mishra, Union Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur and other leaders for their recent hate speech, which allegedly triggered the violence in Delhi. The plea was filed by Delhi violence survivors.

The apex court bench, comprising Chief Justice SA Bobde, listed the matter for hearing after senior advocate Colin Gonsalves, who is appearing on behalf of the survivors told the SC that the Delhi High Court had last week adjourned the matter for six weeks even as “people are dying every day”.

Bengaluru, Mar 3: Bengaluru mayor Gautam Kumar on Tuesday said that the decision to ban protests in front of Town Hall was made by the council and not only by him.

"The decision to ban the protest in front of the Town Hall was made by the entire council and not only my decision. Also, the things which are approved by the councillor are also read by the ruling party leaders," Bengaluru mayor told media.

"Still it is the discretion of the Commissioner to take a call after the council also. As of now, we have banned any protests in front of Town Hall," he added.

Meanwhile, Congress leaders staged a protest against Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Mayor Gautam Kumar and BJP at Council BBMP building against the decision.
