Farooq Ullal, spokesperson of Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee and member of Ullal City Municipal Council had parked his Swift car outside his home last night.

When he came out of home early morning on Thursday to attendant Fajr namaz at a nearby mosque, he found his car was damaged with the windshield and all the windows shattered.

Mr Farooq, who is also the president of a local mosque, has ruled out the communal angle in the attack and held a gang of drunkards responsible for the act.

“I do not have any personal rivalry or animosity with anyone in any community. I am sure that no one wants to harm me or my property. This is the act of a few drunkards who has been troubling the people in the area,” he said urging the police to nab the culprits.

He said that a gang of miscreants has been extorting money from pilgrims who visit Ullal Dargah. “The same gang now started demanding hafta from local shopkeepers and issuing threats. They are drunkards. This might be the act of same gang,” he said.

A case has been registered at Ullal police station and investigations are on.

Bengaluru, Jan 29: The Karnataka unit of BJP has urged the Centre and the State governments to ban the Popular Front of India (PFI) and the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), accusing them of harbouring terrorist tendencies.

Addressing a press meet, N Ravi Kumar, state general secretary of the party, alleged that there was a nexus between the Congress, the PFI and the SDPI.

“Recent reports have exposed the links between the PFI and the Congress,” he said, accusing Congress leader Kapil Sibal of receiving huge funds from PFI to defend their cases in the Supreme Court.

He also accused the organisations as the ones responsible for the death of 23 Hindu activists in Karnataka. Such incidents have proven that both SDPI and PFI are dubious organisations, he said.

PFI is the first kind of organization which is doing community work in all the walks of life.

and providing the helping hands to all the Indian community doing marvelous job.

this is the first organization fighting against corrupt and injustice following the principle of our father of nation mahatma Gandhi’s.

the corrupt and injustice people in the society not ready to accept their policy and trying to stop the voices of justice to the society.

I wish PFI and its sub organizations will continue to support to the society and keep the good work so that people are with you.

Wah what a joke.

RSS is blamming others as terrorists.

 

Constitutionof RSS is a terrorism.  Stupid Hegevar and Savarkar are the heroes of illiterate stupid community.

The whole intelligent community including European Uniion and US openly declared.

 

This is the sure end and downfall of RSS, which will never come-up again. You woke-up of peace lovers.

Thank you.

 

You people are never fit to run even a small village and how come thinking of ruling a big country.

RSS is the most active and first ever terrorist organisation in India and it should be banned first.    There is no proof of terrorist activities by SDPI and PFI.    BJP is afraid of these organisations as they give tought resistance to BJP and this is the reason why its planning to ban these organisations.    BJP is doing propoganda only.   Real thread for peace + harmoney in India by sanghis.   We should ban them first.
