Riyadh: "Seeing to make divisions between Muslims & common Hindus, and creating constant fear in the minds of Muslims, Christians, Dalits, Adivasis and others is the main agenda of fascist forces in India; it shows pseudo ideology that would result in hate and animosity; political power is a big weapon in the hands of fascists to implement their devious ideology", Dr. Hussain Madavoor opined.

He was talking in seminar captioned-"Neo-Fascism & its Cultural Capture" organized December 21, at 7pm by Riyadh Indian Islahi Center at Batha in Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. He inaugurated the seminar.

Continuing his talk, Dr Hussain said-"Muslims, Christians, Dalits & other backward castes including all secular minded people should come forward on minimum common programs & use their constitutional & democratic means of fight to defeat the fascist elements in India; ballot is the strong weapon to defeat such forces....".

He also stated-"In order to fight against communal forces & to trample their divisive ideas, Muslims should not resort for the same kind of approach, which would result in more damages to the community than solution; we have constitution, police, courts & other governmental machineries to restore our rights & to punish the wrongdoers; the same type of aggressions & communal ideologies is not going to benefit our community at all; this is what our Mujahid/Salafis' strong approach; we need to respect our system & at the same time, we need to combat against fascist forces, which are dangerous for the well-being of our country .....".

Dr. Hussain Madvoor is one of the scholars & vice-president of KNM, Kerala. He is the special guest from India invited by the Saudi King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud on the occasion of Janadriyah Festival, which is the exhibition of the Saudi Arabian culture & heritages. The festival was inaugurated on Thursday 20-Dec-2018.

Mr. Jayan Kodungallur, journalist & one of the key intellectual speakers on the occasion stated-"Fascism spread its wings in all spheres in our country (India) that divide the people & is trying to spread the false propaganda; fascism is the opposite of secularism, which is embedded in our constitution & upholds the human relations..."

He also stated that fascist forces are working day & night for the division & ruling, which is the basis of fascist ideology; however, the recent election results of 5 Indian states (MP, Rajasthan, Chattisgarh, Telangana & Mizoram) shows that the secular fabrics are still alive & people are thinking towards co-existence rather than breakups. We need to have a united force based on secularism that comprised of liberal Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Dalits & others alike..".

Mr. Subramanyan, thinker and another key speaker on the dais, also highlighted the relevance of unified force in the present scenario to defeat the divisive policy of fascist forces...."

He also reiterated that those who played role in the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi are made heroes now; they are being posed as real Indian patriot; but in reality they are not...".

Speaking on the occasion, Indian Islahi Center's organizing secretary Saaduddeen Swalahi Kavannur emphasized on the significance of muslim education especially on civil examination (viz. IAS, IPS, IFS, IRS etc.) instead of going behind traditional medical, engineering etc; he also urged for the community to be well aware of political right & to use the right meticulously so that their vote should not be polarized between weak independent candidate & political parties.

He also said-"we are not calling upon to support any particular political party; but need to get united against communal parties, who adopted the policy of divide & rule; we need to see any secular party to win in the election..."

The passion of young  Ms Tabassum and Social Working of today, particularly, gives me lot of hope.  It almost feels like the political class wants to bring down India while the people are so hard working and committed to nation building.

 

Congratulation Miss. Way to go.

 

 

PS: Media has been compromised and fake news factories churn out crap daily. Thanks CD for bringing this news to readers.

CONGRATULATIONS.

 

Mrs.Tabassum's service for humanity is highly commendable.She looks after HIV & AIDS effected children with compassion like mother without expecting anything in returns.

She is the alumni of JF managed Green View PU womens college at Derealakette.

She deserve for more prestigious awards even like "Padma Shri" for her selfless and sincere services for the society and the nation.

All the best.

Mangaluru, May 19: Officials at the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC) said that Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada along with Kodagu, Chikkamagaluru have been alerted about possible heavy rains.

Dr GS Srinivasa Reddy, Director, KSNDMC, said, “Coastal districts have already been witnessing heavy downpour since Monday morning. This will continue for another two days depending on the cyclonic movement along the east coast.”

Until last evening, Haleyangadi and Surathkal in Dakshina Kannada district had received 83 mm and 82.5 mm of rainfall, respectively. Several other areas in Udupi also witnessed heavy rainfall of about 60 to 70 mm rainfall.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) attributed the rain, which intensified on Monday, to a cyclonic circulation over parts of the Arabian Sea (Comorin area) off the coast of Kerala.

The weather department said the sudden convergence of wind over the peninsular region was due to Super Cyclone Amphan, which is set to barrel into the east coast. The IMD issued an Yellow Alert for coastal Karnataka and Malnad, warning of moderate to heavy rainfall in the next few days.
