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.

Orange alert in Dakshina Kannada as southwest monsoon hits Kerala

News Network

June 1,2020

Manglauru, Jun 1: The southwest monsoon has made an onset over Kerala, marking the commencement of the four-month long rainfall season, the India Meteorological Department said on Monday.

"The southwest monsoon has made an onset over Kerala," IMD director general Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said.

The four-month monsoon season from June to September accounts for 75 per cent of rainfall in the country.

Private forecaster Skymet Weather on May 30 had declared arrival of monsoon, but the IMD had differed, saying conditions were not ripe then for such an announcement.

Orange alert

Meanwhile, coastal Karnataka’s Dakshina Kannada district, which is receiving sporadic rains for past couple of days, is on orange alert.

Deputy Commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh declared the orange alert following IMD’s prediction of heavy rainfall in the region.

‘Why job? Join anti-CAA protest, eat free Biryani’: Dubai’s NRI employer Gokhale’s response to job seeker Abdulla

News Network

January 26,2020

Newsroom, Jan 26: An Indian Muslim youth who had applied for a job in Dubai has been left aghast after his prospective employer, who happens to be an Indian, mailed back chiding him for looking for work and suggested that he should make a living (sic) by joining anti-CAA protestors in Shaheen Bagh in New Delhi.

Shaheen Bagh is the epicentre of ongoing mass demonstrations against contentious Citizenship Amendment Act.

Abdulla S.S, a 23-year-old youth from Kerala, who had applied for a mechanical engineer’s position in Dubai said he is still reeling from the shock of the email he got from UAE-based Indian expat Jayant Gokhale in response to his job application last week.

Hostile response

“Just a thought. Why u need a job? Go to Delhi and sit in Shaheen Bagh for protest. Every day you will get Rs 1000. Free food i.e Biryani, Unlimited amount of Tea and Milk, some time sweets also,” Gokhale said in the email which has since gone viral.

Scores have shared the email on social media seeking action against Gokhale who runs a consultancy in Dubai. Many said the email is offensive on two counts. First, it ridicules and discriminates a job seeker on the basis of his religious identity and, second, it undermines the credibility of Shaheen Bagh protestors by suggesting that they are being paid to sit in.

Abdullah said he’s sad and appalled. “I shared Mr Gokhale’s email with some friends. Who would have thought it would go viral. I don’t want any controversy. All I want is a job,” he was quoted as saying.

Gokhale apologises

“I am suffering from ill-health and undergoing dialysis. My email is being blown out of proportion. I didn’t mean what I wrote,” Gokhale was quoted as saying by a Gulf based newspaper.

“My message to candidate was not intended to hurt anyone in any manner or discriminate. I have already sent apology message to the concerned person [Abdullah],” he said in the email reproduced here ad verbum. “I very much value UAE’s outlook, policies and culture. I do not in anyway like to go against values of UAE. In fact I am very thankful to UAE for looking after my health,” he added.

Comments

This hate monster is commenting as if his Father and God Father are financing the people agitating agaisnt CAA/NCR. How about the bjp candidates who are distributing money among voters. Video is viral showing ladiest from bjp distributing cash to people for voting bjp in delhi election. EC should take note of this and ban bjp from contesting as its against our constitution. bjp is doing everythign agaisnt constitution and labels others as anti indians. bjp nhever honours or accept indian constitution. CAA is the proof for it. CAA is 100 perent agaisnt our constitution. Shame on you bjp. We should unite and make bjp lose all the seats.

put him in UAE jail to get free biriyani

It is no wonder that this character is undergoing Dialysis. With the hate mentality that he is carrying, it is not wonder that GOD has given him punishment in the form of non-functional kidney. His apology is fake, the moment he lands in Mubai, he wil wag his tale again in his pathological hate for Muslims while licking mUslim shit.

i appeal UAE govt to gave him severe punishment and sent him back with life ban to uae ...

HYpocricy is one thing common among all RSS terrorists

RSS Gokhale..sitting in muslim country, eating muslim money, cleaning muslim shit and talk about discrimination...after that he apologises..

he says that he he is suffering from dialysis...why he hate muslim people and the people who protest the anti nation BJP party.

if his heart is clean GOD will defenitly give him good life till his death...look at LK advani now..the man who mastermind in demolishing baber masjid now wher he is...GOD humiliate him every minuite in all aspect..GOD knows how he is going to die...

so love human who ever it is...hindu, muslim chist, jain, sikh etc..

all are the creation of one GOD..help each other and be happy..

this type of people is very shrewed - follow RSS teaching - eating muslim nations food and blame them only.when tough time comes, start to beg again... he is one of them.. currupt mind blind bhakt.. just imagine if was not in UAE he would not even says sorry....i condemn his statement

It is really a Shameful comments of Kokhle, very bad to have such kind of people in the society, people should understand and bycot his business and seize his license.

I believe the UAE will adhere to its rules and regulations to everyone. Should take strict action and put him under in Jail. Take a huge penalty from him.
