Mumbai, May 12: Rights activist Trupti Desai today entered Mumbai's Haji Ali Dargah to offer prayers amid tight security, saying her struggle was for gender equality.haji-ali

"At the Dargah, I prayed that women be allowed to enter the inner sanctum, as was the case till 2011," Bhumata Ranragini Brigade chief Desai said, after coming out of the Dargah.

"Police cooperated with us this time. This is a fight for gender equality. We will try to visit the inner sanctum next time," she said.

Desai and other women activists were earlier denied entry to the Dargah last month.

After campaign for entry of women in Shani Shingnapur and Trimbakeshwar temples in Maharashtra, Desai had taken her movement for gender equality to the famous Dargah in Mumbai.

She was stopped short of going into the shrine on April 28 by protestors.

Temple or dargah both are same which leads to shirk..... both believers of temple and dargah has lack of religious knowledge, instead of reading their religious books this people are believing this fraud baba, tantrik, swami, tangal, koya etc.... may Allah give hidaya to all the human beings in this earth to know the truth

I am sure that Trupti Desai is doing such unwanted acts only to get popularity. Is she really concerned about women, she should fight agaisnt dowry, killings of woman in the name of dowry, rape, misbehave by immoral police etc etc. In the same time, Desai should know that Dargah is not a holy place for Muslims and there is no need of any Muslim to pray in the Dargah. Muslim women are given freedom to pray in their home. Instead of praying at home why are they so eager to visit Dargah or Masjid. Does they want to show their beauty? why are they interested in unnecessary activities which is being supported by Desai whereas she is not interested in actual and important things. Does Desai has no other job?

NOOR

Think Brothers Think ... and PONDER, is DARGAH culture allowed in ISLAM? Y are we encouraging this system of worship... which is close to the cultures of pagan worshipers...

WORSHIP ALLAH the way Prophet Muhammad pbuh taught us and follow the Sahabas RA .. When U follow the last and final prophet of ALLAH, U will not be trapped with such humiliation. When we follow our own desire... then expect such treatment ...

Dear Desai,

Just for your information it is one and the same, if you pray in darga or in temple it will go nowhere. worship the creator not his creation.

Kalaburagi, Mar 7: Congress and JDS MLAs are eagerly waiting to join BJP, said former minister and chairman of Nijasharana Ambigara Choudaiah Abhivradhi Nigama, Baburao Chinchansur, here on Friday.

Speaking at a press conference here, Baburao said if the BJP top brass gives a green signal to include MLAs of other parties, both Congress and JDS would be almost empty. Many leaders, including D K Shivakumar and G Parameshwara, won’t support Siddaramaiah and the former CM will have to find his own way in the coming days, he predicted. He said Congress will not be coming to power in Karnataka for the next 20 years, he said.

Chinchansur thanked Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa for providing Rs 50 crore for Nijasharana Ambigara Choudaiah Abhivrudhi Nigama in the budget. He also said that a delegation will be taken to New Delhi under the leadership of the CM, after the budget session, to pressure the Union government to include Koli community in ST category.

Jan 31: A bunch of fishermen in Kerala is being praised for releasing an endangered shark back into water. A video posted on Twitter shows the fishermen releasing the whale shark that was trapped in their nets back into the sea.

The video was posted on Twitter by InSeason Fish - a group working towards environmental conservation, sustainable fisheries and healthy oceans. Filmed in Kerala's Kozhikode, it shows fishermen on a fishing vessel with the huge whale shark.

Whale sharks are the largest fish in the ocean and can reach up to 40 feet in length. Distinguished by their white spots, this shark is on International Union for Conservation of Nature's list of endangered species.

In the video, at least seven fishermen are seen working together to lift the thrashing whale shark up with the help of ropes and releasing it into the water.
