Mangalore, June 15: A girl child of less than 1 year was found at the K.S.R.T.C bus stand in Mangalore on Tuesday evening.

At around 7 pm, an employee of K.S.R.T.C noticed the child crying in absence of her parents. The matter was brought to the notice of Barke police. When the police confirmed the absence of the parents in the bus stand, the child was handed over to Childrens' Development Committee (CDC).

As committee has no right to keep the child of below 6 years, the child was shifted to Puttur Ramakrishna Sevashram on the same night said President of Childrens' Development Committee Asha Nayak.

Police suspect that parents might have abandoned the child as it was a female.


The police appealed to public with specific information about the child to contact Mangalore Police Commissioner or Barke police station, City Police Commissioner's office- 0824/2220801, Barke Police Station-0824/2220522, 9480805350.

Belagavi, Feb 22: A madrasa in Karnataka’s Belagavi district hosted a Hindu-Muslim mass marriage on its premises on Friday, sending a strong message of communal amity. As many as 76 Muslim couples and 25 Hindu couples entered marital life on the occasion.

Madarsa Al Arabia Anwarul Ulooma, an Islamic religious institute in Bailhongal, 50km from Belagavi district headquarters, played host to the event that was organised by Jamia Faizan-ul-Quran and Issa Foundation, which has conducted mass marriages on a bigger scale in Gujarat.

The mass marriage comes a month after the 100-year-old Cheravally Jamaat Masjid in Kerala’s Kayamkulam in Alappuzha hosted a Hindu wedding, complete with a vegetarian feast for 4,000 people. A Hindu priest led the rituals, and the couple sought the blessings of chief imam Riyasudeen Faizy of the mosque.

At Bailhongal, moulvis and pontiffs led the marriage proceedings and asked the couples to read passages from Quran and Bhagvad Gita.

The Hindu couples were gifted a copy of the Gita, and newly-married Muslim couples received a copy of Quran. The organisers provided each Hindu bride a mangalsutra. Bailhongal MLA Mahantesh Koujalagi blessed the couples at the event, which was attended by more than 4,000 people.

Mohammad Rafique A Naik, a member of Jamia Faizan-ul-Quran, said they have gifted each couple a refrigerator, an almirah and a tailoring machine. Ranjita Kalala, a bride who married a daily-wage labourer, said her family couldn’t afford the cost of a wedding, adding, “When we learnt about the Bailhongal madrassa’s plan, we agreed to sign up because it also sends out a message of communal harmony.”
