Udupi, February 16: “It's our duty to spread virtues or goodness and try to eradicate the evils in the society. Evils such as alcohol, drugs, immorality, and exploitation of women have damaged the health of the society. Fighting against such evils is an integral part of our faith” said Moulvi Abdussalam Uppingadi, Regional Organizer, Jamaat-e-Islami Hind who was here to deliver a talk on the valedictory ceremony of 'Khaire Ummath” campaign here in Jamia Masjid, Udupi.

“Evils should be countered with goodness. By doing this, your enemy will turn into your closest friend”, he said.

Moulana Hamid Umri, General Secretary of Muslim Muttahida Maaz, Shimoga district, said that women's protection in India is a major problem. Citing Renuka Chowdhary that “in our country, all the efforts to safeguard women have failed”, he said that the problem needs immediate attention.

Akber Ali in his inaugural address, expressed concern that people, who know that mishandling of cooking gas could cause an explosion, are not realizing that the TVs can also blow up their houses, with the kind of evils it spreads.

Moulana Aziz Umari recited verses from the glorious Quran. Mohammed Markada compered the program. District Secretary Anwar Ali proposed the vote of thanks.

Bengaluru, May 2: JDS leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy accused the Mandya district administration of the surge in COVID-19 cases in the district and not quarantining 7,000 labourers who arrived here from Mumbai.

"As we know that 16,000 labourers from Mandya were working in Mumbai, out of which 7,000 people have arrived in the district. However, none of them was quarantined properly which is a violation of COVID-19 lockdown," Kumaraswamy told reporters here on Friday.

He claimed the district administration has shown "gross negligence" in their duty in following the procedure of COVID-19 as "one COVID-19 patient's dead body which was brought here from Mumbai has led to more cases in the district and those who accompanied the body have also tested positive for the virus."

Kumaraswamy appealed to the state government to strictly maintain lockdown norms and do not allow any relaxations in view of the rise in COVID-19 cases, stating that "any kind of relaxation could lead to a huge disaster."

Mangaluru, May 7: The Dakshina Kannada District Muslim Okkoota has strongly condemned permit for opening of textile and footwear shops across the district at a time when the number of Covid-19 positive cases are on the rise.

In a press note here on Thursday, former Mayor and Okoota President Ashraf alleged that the permission to open the shops at a time when Eid-ul-Fitr was nearing would lead to rush in the shops in turn bringing in fear of spread of Covid-19. 

He expressed his resentment over the fact that the administration has neglected the appeal made by the Okkoota as well as the Qazi of Udupi against permitting textile shops during the lockdown period.

He warned that the administration, district in-charge Minister, MLA and MP themselves will be responsible in case of increased infection cases due to this decision.

The district in-charge minister Kota Srinivas Poojary yesterday had announced that textile shops in the district can be opened from May 7.
