Addressing media persons in the city on Thursday, Committee president K S Mohammed Masood said that all the Muslim organisations in coastal Karnataka endorse All India Muslim Personal Law Board's decision to reject Law Commission's questionnaire on the possibility of a UCC.

He said that under the pretext of giving justice to Muslim women by ending controversial triple talaq, Prime Minister Narendra Modi led NDA government trying to interfere in Muslim personal law and make changes in Islamic Shariah.

Mr Masood said that if there were “flaws” in the personal laws governing Muslims, the scholars and religious heads of the community are capable of addressing them from time-to-time. “There is a long procedure for three talaqs in Islam. If anyone violates the rules of talaq and ignores rights of woman, the victims can approach local Ulema or Khazi who will solve the problem,” he said.

He said that his committee will join the nationwide signature campaign launched by the Personal Law Board against the UCC. He urged all Muslims in the twin districts to strive to make the campaign success. Signatures of men and women from the community will be sent to Personal Law Board through All India Milli Council, he added.

“People of different cultures live in this country. If the UCC is implemented, attempts will be made to paint all in one colour, which is not in the interest of the country. There are more divorces in other communities. Rather the highest rate, which is double that of Muslims, is among Hindus," said a cleric.

Terming UCC a pure political stunt, Uniwef president Rafeeuddin Kudroli said that in order to conceal its failure and diver the attention of people from core issues, the anti-people government is raking up such issues. Representatives of various Muslim organisations and associations were present at the press meet.

I read all negative comments id another news portal. Wo... where are comments are from non-muslims who do not know sharia law and just want to comment for the heck of it and put muslims in bad face by not writing the full facts as Mr. Masood mentioned that the girls can approach the kazi or ulemas. 95% of the comments are from non-muslims who should not interfere in our religion rights and try to amend theirs.

I strongly feel ucc is the need of the hour. We are not supporters of bjp but somewhere we feel it is must .I met many Indians including Christians and Sikhs. Absolutely no opposition from their side .if we want our own laws then better to migrate for sharia backed country. If we have firm faith in sharia then even in criminal laws we must ask sharia laws .where as we want secular and general laws.we Muslims have lot of priorities. . concentrate on education ,quality employement and we must encourage young entrepreneurs ,we should bring down illiteracy rates ...our gals and boys must enter civil services in large no and our people must be in isro as scientists .. Dream in that way guys. Let us respect women feeling ....I can challenge non of the above are 100% true Muslims.... We Muslims must join mainstream .if not days are really going to be tough in India .whether we accept it or not RSS power quadrappled in past few years and pm has firm grip .we must accept the fact that bjp simply don't care for our votes. When we deal with bjp we cannot behave like the way we dealt with congress .we were vote bank for congress.they listen to us .we must also take a note on diminishing power of congress ....let us respect the rule of land. Jai hind ...proud Muslim from surathkal

Bengaluru, Jul 2: Karnataka government has issued a show-cause notice to 18 private hospitals for refusing to admit a 52-year-old patient with influenza-like illness (ILI) symptoms, who later died.

According to the notice dated on June 30, a 52-years patient named Bhawarlal Sujani died after he was denied admission by 18 private hospitals.

The patient was taken to these hospitals on Saturday and Sunday for admission on observing some ILI like symptoms. But none of these hospitals admitted in on the pretext of unavailability of bed/ventilators, read the notice.

This is a clear violation of providing medical assistance and admission necessitated under the agreed provision of KPME Registration. They should strictly adhere to the provisions under Sections 11 & 11 A of KPME Act 2017. Private Medical Establishments cannot deny/ refuse/ avoid treatment to patients with Covid-19 and Covid-19 like symptoms, the state Health Department said.

By denying the admission to the deceased patient, your hospitals have violated the provisions of the above-said act. You are liable for legal action in this regard, as per the notice.

The state Health department asked the hospitals to reply as to why action should not be initiated under the relevant Acts.

The infant was the sixth child of the couple, police said.

"A case has been registered (for unnatural death) in the matter to verify the death beyond any suspicion raised by locals since five other children of the couple had died in the past nine years," a senior police official said.

The couple had three boys and three girls of which the third girl child lived till the age of four and the rest died before turning one.

"The post-mortem will take place today itself.We are collecting the medical records of the children who had passed away earlier.

We will identify the cause of death after analysing the records and discuss the matter with forensic doctors," Tirur Deputy Superintendent of Police (DySP) said.

However, relatives claimed that there was nothing suspicious in the death of the children and that doctors have said it was due to some genetic disease.

"The post-mortem of the third child was conducted and the doctors said the death was due to some genetic problems. They said they were helpless," a relative said, adding that the family was ready to face any probe.

According to the locals, the couple had claimed that the children have died due to epilepsy.

Sources said the baby was taken to a hospital but was dead prior to reaching the hospital early this morning.
