Mangalore, February 23: The Karnataka chapter of Social Democratic Party of India is organising district wise mega conferences across the state with the slogan 'People's Political Conferences'. The conferences have been scheduled from January to March.

Revealing this at a press meet here on Thursday SDPI State Committee member Hanif Kodaje said that the party has geared up with all its potential to create political awareness and spread its vitalness among common people.

“With such an intention, the party is organizing state-wide district level public gatherings with the slogan 'People's Political Conference' – People's March to Power. As part of it, the district committee of Dakshin Kannada has decided to hold the People's Political Conference on March 2, at Nehru Maidan, in the city”, he said.

Abdul Jalil K, SDPI DK district president said that the Party's national president E Abubakkar, General Secretary Hafiz Mansur Ali Rajasthan, Tamilnadu M.P Thol Thirumavalam, SDPI Karnataka state president Abdul Majeed Kodlipete, president of Farmer Union Kodihalli Chandrashekhar, SDPI Karnataka state secretary Hemalatha and other national and state leaders of the party are expected take part in the programme.

Dedicated cadres of SDPI across the state have been equipped with the essentials required to give the People's Political Conference a lasting impression and making it a great success. Caravans, corner meetings, get-togethers, seminars, rallies, street plays, and public meetings are the tools that are being utilized by the well-trained teams to effectively publicize the events to attract the masses, he said.

“With 'People's March to Power', SDPI is heading towards each village and town across the state to empower the common people with the political awareness. All citizens of our nation irrespective of their religion, creed and language should get representation in power proportionate to the count of population. All the backward and deprived classes should get equal share in education, employment, land ownership, and other fundamental rights in all domains. SDPI wishes to strengthen the system of Secularism, socialism and democracy that are the components of our Constitution”, Mr Kodaje said.

He also said that the so-called national and regional political parties like Congress, BJP, Communist, JDS, BSP, etc. have totally failed in finding solutions to the problems of the people. Of these political parties, some are being ruled by specific families and some by upper-classes and our administration is abided by corporate. Corrupt politicians are hurling in scandals of billions of rupees. Many of such politicians have already been to and are in jails for their immoral and corrupt practices. And many more such public representatives are yet to be welcomed in the jails for their corruption. There should be a full stop to the election of representatives who are corrupt and communal, he added.

He said, both Congress and BJP have the same kind of foreign policies and economic policies. Foreign Investment Policies are being framed by the Governments, which are in favour of capitalists and are against the welfare of the common people, he said.

Akbar Ali, General Secretary, SDPI, D K district, Nasir Sajeepa, Vice president and Abubakkar Kulai President, SDPI, Mangalore City Corportation Committee were present at the press meet.

Mangaluru, Jan 11: A large number of people from the Women India Movement on Saturday staged a protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC) here and raised slogans denouncing the newly enacted law.

Protestors were seen carrying placards that read, 'Stop diving India, Boycott CAA, NRC, NPR', 'We are humans, not criminals', 'Save India from fascism'.

"Today's youths are tomorrow's future. The present leaders are scared by the youths and are trying to wipe us out. They are scared of the students because they are raising their voices," a protestor told media.

"It started with the triple talaq, then the removal of Article 370 and Babri Masjid verdict. We Muslims kept quiet but now it is a question to our Constitution. We are not here as Muslims but as an Indian Citizen protesting against the cruelty of the BJP government," she added.

The protestor said the Central government is trying to make India a Hindu Rashtra by wiping out all other communities.

"This fascist government is trying to poison the minds of Hindus against the Muslims. After Muslims, there will be the Christian community and then other communities. The main motive of the government is to only keep Brahmins in India," added the protestor.

The newly-enacted law grants citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist, and Christian refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh, who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.

Bengaluru, Jan 7: Slogans of ‘Inquilab Zindabad’ rent the air at Town Hall on Monday evening as thousands of students, social activists, lawyers, doctors and theatrepersons among others staged a protest to denounce Sunday’s attack on the students and faculty of New Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU).

“This is unacceptable. As students living in hostels, we are now worried about our safety,” said Prakruthi Kishore, a student of National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bengaluru.

Rishi Kumar, a student of Indian Institute of Science, pitched in. “JNU is an extremely protected university located in the national capital. It’s surprising that such an incident occurred amid tight security.”

Delhi police and the government need to wake up and take stringent action against the goons, Kumar said, adding: “Students can’t be treated like puppets. The government needs to act immediately.”

“The government is behaving shamelessly by sending goons to threaten students and professors of JNU,” said Alokanath Pandit, a lawyer.

With “Zor se bolo-azadi, tum din me maaro-azadi, hum raat me ayenge-azadi,” drowning the cacophony of traffic at the intersection, the sloganeering reached a crescendo around 6pm as the protesters raised their hands in a show of solidarity with the beleaguered JNU community.

Theatrepersons Prasanna and Arundathi Nag, farmer leader Kodihalli Chandrashekar and social activists Tara Krishnaswamy and Srinivas Alavilli were present at the protest venue. “It is not fair that educational institutions are now becoming the target. First, they hiked fees and now they are attacking students. What is the government doing,” Arundathi asked.

“JNU has always been an institution which has raised its voice against atrocities across the country as its students harbour no fear. This is an alarm bell for the country and the government to wake up. Students are the future and can’t be targeted,” she added.

Chandrashekar said Narendra Modi is unfit to be the Prime Minister as he doesn’t keep his word. “Modi said he will help farmers but has done nothing for them. He said he will provide employment to students but is now making them furious,” he said.
