Dear Hussain,
You may have never met any JIH member or attended any program... Jih calls towards Quran and shuns all form of violence and destructive activities... Please don't spread misinformation... You will be answerable on Qiyamah Day

Dear Brothers,

Dont confuse with JIH, they are the real follower of Maududi and Sayyed Qutub of Egypt, these are two individuals who led innocent muslims youths to terrorism.

Viswas, mangalore,
Mosque or Masjid is not a learing place but, its a place to worship the creator the way Prophet Muahammed (pbuh) taught us. But, you can learn Quran in Madrasa. Please enroll your self in any Madrasa if you are keen to learn. In Masjid also you are welcome to worship Allah after your shahadah \Ashahdu an la ilaha illallah wa ashahdu anna Muhammedar Rasulullah.\""

ALLAH says in the QURAN:
\Invite to the way of your LORD with Wisdom and Beautiful Preaching (Chapter 16 Ayat 125)
People should also look at the quran project website"

QURAN :
This is the book of ALLAH, there is no DOUBT in it, It is a GUIDANCE for the whole of mankind.
This Book, there is no doubt, in it is a a GUIDE to those who Guard against Evil.
This book Never changed, Never altered, Billions read it & Millions memorize it.. EVER WONDER WHY?

QURAN FOR ALL HUMANKIND.....AND ALSO THIS UNIVERSE....

QURAN FOR ALL HUMANKIND....STUDY QURAN EVERYBODY AND FOLLOW...

Major facelift for Mangaluru's sporting heart: Mangala Stadium set for 2-month closure to upgrade synthetic track

News Network

December 15,2025

Mangaluru, Dec 15: Educational institutions in Mangaluru that rely on the popular Mangala Stadium for their annual sports events are bracing for an inconvenience as the city's key sporting venue is set to close its gates for a significant upgrade. The stadium is expected to be unavailable for approximately two months starting from January 15, 2026.

The closure is necessitated by a proposed overhaul of the stadium's facilities, with a special focus on upgrading the synthetic track. Pradeep Dsouza, Assistant Director of the District of Youth Empowerment and Sports (DYES), Dakshina Kannada, confirmed the development.

"Experts have visited the stadium, conducted a thorough inspection, and have given the go-ahead for a complete makeover," Dsouza stated. "Funds have been allocated for the project, and we are currently awaiting the final green signal from state officials to commence the work. We anticipate that the work will likely begin in the second week of January. Consequently, we have stopped renting out the stadium to colleges and other organizations in preparation for the upgrade."

The timing presents a logistical challenge for colleges, as many schools have already concluded their sports meets.

"Colleges will now be organizing their events and will need to find alternative locations to host their sports meets," Dsouza added. He suggested a few potential venues, including the Dakshina Kannada police ground, University College grounds, Panambur grounds, Swaraj Maidan in Moodbidri, and the Mangalore University sports grounds in Konaje.

However, many institutions note that finding a comparable venue will be difficult. While the DK police ground and University College grounds are closer to the city center, they do not possess the extensive facilities and infrastructure offered by Mangala Stadium.

Dr. P Dayananda Pai - P Satisha Govt First Grade College, Carstreet, is one such institution dependent on the stadium. Principal Jayakar Bhandary expressed hope for a swift completion of the work. "We expect the work to be completed at the earliest. If not, we will be forced to look for other venues to host the sports day for our students," Bhandary said, highlighting the pressing need for the city's main sporting facility.
