Class 9 Muslim girl from Puttur tops Ramayana exam

February 12, 2016

Mangaluru, Feb 12: Being a Muslim girl didn’t stop her from topping the Ramayana exam conducted by Bharatha Sanskriti Prathisthan. The parents of Fathimath Rahila from a remote village in Puttur of Dakshina Kannada district are proud of her achievement.

“She is well-versed with the holy Quran. Now we are happy that she topped state level Ramanaya exam. I am proud of my daughter,” says her father Ibrahim, who works in a factory.

A Class 9 student of Sarvodaya High School, Sulliapadavu village, Rahila scored 93% in the exam held in November 2015. The results were announced recently.

“When we came to know that Rahila is interested in learning Ramayana and Mahabharata we encouraged her,” said Ibrahim, adding that children should learn the essence of all religions.

“From Sarvodaya High School as many as 39 students wrote this state level exam. Students appeared for exams after self-study,” said principal Shivarama HD, adding that none of the students were forced to write the exam.

Cheddis doesnt want the hindus to learn the VEDAS...
They have put up a fear in the people among hindus that it will be cursed if you touch the vedas and this book is only for the brahmanas...
A brahmana who went against such ritual who thinks & ponders said that People will leave the hindu rituals & worshiping idols will diminish, if any Hindus try to learn the VEDAS...
Vedas says NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI>>>That it self is clear that God has no IMAGe. temples are only make money by keeping idols of even animals & human picture. Shame if you dont use your god given intellectual.
In QURAN ALLAH says : Dont fear anybody except him who control even the brahmanas... So read, understand and PONDER on gods word. If U really honest God will Help U & protect U ... TRUST HIM and throw away your FEAR of this so called high class people.

ALLAHUMMA INNI AS'ALUKA ILMAN NAFI'AN WA RIZQAN THAYYIBAN WA AMALAN MUTAQABBALAN.

Great achievement sister, proud of you. God bless you
Jai shri Ram.

Chaddis should learn something from this....I wish Rahila becomes scholar of comperative religion and Islam

Good to see this. This shows we are tolerant and not communal like other. Love all and leave with peace. Give education to our community girls and make them stand on their legs. Look at our community, because of Dowry there are so many girls are unmarried and Mangalore boys are marrying neighboring state girls for money. Who will stop this. Are our community elders listening to this?

Udupi: Hindutva activist arrested for allegedly raping young woman while out on bail

News Network

December 1,2025

Udupi, Dec 1: A horrific case of alleged rape has unfolded in Udupi, where a worker from a Hindutva organisation, previously arrested and released on bail for harassing a young woman, is now accused of waylaying and sexually assaulting her.

The arrested individual has been identified as Pradeep Poojary (26), a member of the Hindu Jagarana Vedike's Nairkode unit in Perdur.

Poojary had allegedly been relentlessly harassing the young woman, pressuring her to marry him. When she bravely stood up to him and refused his demands, she filed a formal complaint at the Hiriyadka police station. He was subsequently arrested in that initial harassment case but was later granted bail.

According to police reports, driven by the same malicious grudge, Poojary allegedly intercepted the woman again on November 29. While she was walking through a deserted area, the accused is claimed to have threatened her by grabbing her neck. When she again refused to marry him, he allegedly proceeded to rape her.

The survivor immediately informed her family about the traumatic assault. Following this, her parents lodged a complaint at the Udupi women’s police station.

Police arrested Poojary again and produced him before the court. He has since been remanded to judicial custody.
