Religious sentiments mark Beary poets' meet

December 10, 2011

Mangalore, December 10: The religious sentiments and introspection marked the Beary poets' meet organised as part of 'Beary Sammelana-2011' at Town Hall in the city on Saturday.

Even though Beary Sahitya Academy president M B Abdul Rahman maintained that Beary Sammelana will not focus on any particular religion, all the nine Beary poets participated in the session not only appeared to be strictly maintaining the Muslim religious restrictions, but also urged the Beary community through their poetry to lead a God-fearing life.

Presiding over the evening session, writer Aisha UK, lauded the poets for “conveying the religious and spiritual message” to the people in a poetic way.

“As pointed out by earlier speakers, literature is the developed form of a language. However, literature should grow within the purview of religion”, she said.

Mentioning that holy Qur'an has cursed those litterateurs, who violated the boundaries of religion and indulged themselves in spreading lies and vulgar thoughts, Ms Aisha said: “We should be among those whom the holy Quran praised for their piety.”

She also called upon the budding poets to use their pens as swords to fight against the enemies of society such as dowry system.

Fathima Bi, U A Kasim Ullal, Haneef Perlia, Abdul Rahman Kuthethur, Abdul Azeez Haqq, Basheer Kinya, Jaleel Mukri and Shareef Neerkaje presented their poems in front of the audience.

Azeez Baikampady compered the programme.

Bengaluru, Apr 21: Alarmed by reports that 53 media persons have contracted coronavirus in Maharashtra, a Minister on Tuesday urged Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa to screen all the journalists in Karnataka.

During the regular Covid-19 related briefing on Monday, a reporter had raised the issue of 53 journalists in the neighbouring state testing positive for the disease, with Minister for Primary and Secondary Education S Suresh Kumar.

In Maharashtra, out of the 171 scribes examined medically, 53 were found to have the viral infection.

In his letter to the CM, Kumar said a similar test should be carried on the journalists in Karnataka.

"The journalists wanted a similar kind of screening to be carried out on them. Therefore, please direct the health and the information department immediately to conduct the screening of journalists who are in contact with public," Kumar said.

Mangaluru, Feb 10: Life of a 40–year-old man, who suffered a massive cardiac arrest, was saved by an ambulance driver who covered 80-km distance between Dharmasthala and Mangaluru in just 40 minutes.

The patient, a Chikkaballapur native sustained a heart attack near Sakleshpur on Saturday while he was on his way to Dharmasthala. He was provided preliminary treatment at a private hospital in Ujire, where doctors advised his relatives to shift him to a hospital in Mangaluru immediately.

The patient’s condition was critical and the odds were completely against him. Moreover owing to the ongoing double lane project work, the road too had been dugout. Despite all this, ambulance driver Hameed drove at a fast pace and managed to take the patient to the hospital within 40 minutes.
