'More than 1 lakh Hindus to participate in Samajotsava at Nehru Maidan'

December 22, 2010

Mangalore, December 22: Saffron organisations are gearing up for the mammoth Hindu Samajothsava in the city to be organised under the banner of Sri Hanumad Shakthi Jagaran Samithi on January 2, as part of their non-legal battle to establish Ram Mandir at the site of demolished Babri Masjid in Faizabad.

Addressing media persons here on Wednesday, Prof. M B Puranik, President of the district unit of Vishwa Hindu Parishad said that though the Hindu organisations respect Allahabad court verdict on Ayodhya-Babri title suite, they are indeed against handing over one third of the disputed land to Muslims.

He said the majority community of this country cannot be satisfied unless the Ram Mandir was not established in Ayodhya (Faizabad), which according to him is the birth place of Ram.

Giving details about the impending Samajotsava, Ravishankar Mijar, President, Sri Hanumad Shakthi Jagaran Samithi, Mangalore Unit, said the Samithi has already arranged Hindu Samajotsavas and Hanuman Shakthi Jagaran Yagna in more than 300 spots across Dakshina Kannada district and the event of January 2 would also be the valedictory ceremony of the series of Samajotsavas.

He said the samithi is working towards implementing the resolutions, made in Kumbha Mela at Haridwar on April 26 this year, which includes establishing Ram Mandir, prevention of attack on Hindu culture and religious structures, urge to declare the cow a national animal and to draft laws against its killing and so on.

He said more than 1 lakh Hindus would gather at Nehru Maidan to listen to the speeches of Hindu leaders like Praveen Bhai Togadia. Entrepreneur Dayanada Pai will preside over the programme.

Bengaluru, Apr 11:  Amid nationwide lockdown in the wake of COVID-19, former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday urged the state government to announce a relief package for farmers.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday held a video conference with Chief Ministers.

Taking to Twitter, Kumaraswamy wrote, "As the lock down continues, what action plan does the government have to tackle the challenges of ensuring marketing channels for farm produce with timely transport and ensuring uninterrupted supply of essential groceries to towns and cities?"

He later asked the government to act "swiftly and effectively".

"On one hand we see farmers throwing their produce in despair and losing their livelihoods. On the other hand supplies to towns are depleting. This is threatening both lives and livelihoods. The government must act swiftly and effectively," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

"I urge the state government to immediately announce relief package to farmers by way of direct benefit transfer mechanism and purchase all the agricultural produce so as to avoid farmer suicides," he added.

With 40 deaths and 1,035 new COVID-19 cases in the last 24 hours, India on Saturday witnessed a sharpest ever increase in coronavirus cases, taking the tally of the infected people in the country to 7,447, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
