Welcome back Mohammed Mangalore.

Every person have their own choice of selecting the method of protest. I have selected writing on forums as I cannot do what you wanted, as I am aged enough. You being a hench man of Masood, may remember recently Poojary indirectly taunted Masood, for being MLC at his helm, failures for congress party recent Zilla and Taluk Panchayats. I bet you Masood cannot get 100 votes if he contest for next MLA election. And even MLC.

Finally I don't need teachings from you as you are immaterial to me.

Ibrahim Hussain Udupi, It is just for you to request muslims to keep quiet as you being in Udupi are scared of the repurcation you will go through if you stand up against these people. Come on gather some guts and come out openly to condemn this speech. It is easy for you give lectures. Be a strong muslim or are you the one who knows only to back stab and talk nonsense about your own community people.

This is Kaat Bunta.
He is not representing all Hindus, nor this is the message of any Hindu.
The more they provocate, the more ISLAM grows.
The big protest and reaction started in US afer 9/11, what happened.
Happened is more Americans specially women embraced ISLAM.
The same will happen in India. Just Watch, you can not fool educated people.

BJP/RSS have some active pracharaks throughout India give hate speeches against Islam and Muslims. Even Narendra Modi himself RSS pracharak, made some comments on muslim regarding reservations during the Bihar Election rally. Yesterday in Agra, Mr. Kataria, BJP MP made similar provocations SPEECH in UP. This is a normal practice of RSS/BJP camp. When it comes protests, both slip away from their utterances and say that is their personal views and nothing to do with party and RSS.
Ananth Kumar is non performing MP of UKannada district, there is an unhappiness from the voters even BJP sympathizers and his utterances against Islam and Muslims nothing but a show. However, Muslims should not provoked from his statements and maintain peace and harmony. We will have to see the action from the State Government, specifically home minister Dr. Parameshwar and CM Sidda Ramayya.

It is time for Congress Government to take action. If you want to keep your vote bank alive, then the Government must take action against this Naalayak, Hatred Communal MP.

Mangaluru, July 31: Kanara Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) has unveiled a campaign both on digital media and outdoor billboards on bringing awareness on the right usage of masks, social distancing and hand washing in the fight against COVID19. The campaign has received very good response and attention on social media and with the citizens of Mangaluru.

While the numbers of Covid-19 infected people were increasing and a vaccine would take some more time it was observed that norms of social distancing and other precautionary practices were thrown to the wind. Many people in Dakshina Kannada were found using masks inappropriately. Wearing a mask in a scientific way by covering both the nose and mouth is imperative to control droplets that spread the virus. We need to rise above our inconvenience to fight the virus.

Considering this the KCCI found an immediate need to bring awareness and constant reminder to people on the right usage of masks, social distancing, washing hands and other dos and don’ts to stay ahead of the virus and beat the pandemic.

A digital campaign and an outdoor advertisement campaign were planned by the chamber to remind and encourage people to follow best practices when interacting with others. 

The theme of the Campaign was decided to be “Let’s Fight Back Together” Origin Designext a Creative Agency in Mangalore was roped in to do the creative for the campaign and a team from KCCI worked with the Agency to shape up the campaign with their inputs. In the meantime Indian Red Cross Society Dakshina Kannada and Rotary Mangaluru expressed their interest to support the Campaign. 

Mangaluru based outdoor agencies like Jyothi Advertisers, Kalkura Advertisers and Gee Dee Advertisers agreed to provide outdoor space gratis to this community service campaign. Presented both in English and Kannada, the campaign has been creating waves on social media and on the street, a sign that it is being very well received by the populace of Mangalore city. 

The creative of Half Covered or Half exposed where a model is shown with a mask that exposes the nose and KA-19 v/s COVID-19 (KA-19 being the Vehicle Registration Code for the District) have been particularly making a buzz in the community. All together 14 hoardings are currently on display with various Covid-19 awareness messages. Many business houses have shown interest to participate in this public awareness campaign.

The Chamber hopes this campaign would go a long way in the fight of the city against COVID-19 and play its role in putting the pandemic behind us. “Businesses and our economy has suffered enough, we need to work together to fight this virus, we need to rise above minor inconvenience and win this war,” says Isaac Vas the President to KCCI.
