March 25, 2016

Chikkamagaluru, Mar 25: Fakirs boycotted the annual Sandal Urs at Sri Guru Dattatreya Bababudan Swamy Dargah as the district administration did not allow devotees to drape green Chadars' and smear Sandal' (sandalwood paste) on tombs at the cave shrine on Thursday.

Fakirs, joined by a few Muslims, walked in a procession under the leadership of Shah Khadri Syed Ghouse Mohiuddin from Attigundi towards Bababudangiri. The devotees carried offerings for the tombs. Shah Khadri requested the officials to allow to carry out the traditional rituals. But, the officials said that only Mujawars are allowed to carry out the customs as per the Supreme Court orders. The irked Fakirs staged a protest in front of the cave. Later, the district administration conducted the Urs.

DC S?P Shadakshariswamy, SP K Santhosh Babu, AC R Snehal, tahsildars Shivanna and Bhageerathamma (Muzrai) were present.

Shah Khadri accused the district administration of contempt of court by not allowing the customary rituals. The SC had stated that the customs older to 1989 should be allowed.

There is no God but ALLAH and Muhammad pbuh is the final messenger of ALLAH....
Muslims should follow prophet Muhammad pbuh and follow the way prophet muhammad pbuh showed us... He never showed us to ASK with the DEAD. SO it wil be better to avoid asking with the dead if you fall in Doubt.

We Muslims believe ALLAH is ALL POWERFULL & ALL KNOWING and He is our PROTECTOR and Asking with the wali or dead person is not the way of our prophet. If U trust ALLAH, and THEN RELY on ALLAH and dont be in doubt that dead saints help comes... STOP this... ALLAH helps those who rely and depend on him...
To make YOUR imaan WEAK some so called DARGAH group may claim divinity to saints...
if U have any problem, Try to depend on ALLAH what QURAN teaches us.. & have Patience... U Will receive contentment & feel good When U depend on ALLAH alone... STOP goin or depending on DARGAH culture...

Fakirs are like Sanyasis or Babas of Hinduism. However, in Islam there is no \RAHABANIYAH\" OR fakir or sanyas. These Fakirs are of Sufism. Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him) lived like a Imam, Ruler, married man had a family and children. Where these Fakirs leave everything become Sanyasis. Actual word/meaning in Arabic is FUKURA (poor people) ."

Mangaluru, Dec 15: Air India Express has announced that it will resume direct flight services between Mangaluru and Muscat from March 2026, restoring an important international air link for passengers from the coastal region.

Airport authorities said the service will operate twice a week—on Sundays and Tuesdays—from March 1. The initial flights are scheduled on March 3, 8 and 10, followed by March 15 and 17, with the same operating pattern to continue thereafter. The flight duration is approximately three hours and 25 minutes.

The Mangaluru–Muscat route was earlier operated under the 2025 summer schedule, with services beginning on July 14. At that time, Air India Express had operated four flights a week before suspending the service.

Officials said the summer schedule will come into effect from March 29, after which changes in flight timings and departure schedules from Mangaluru are expected. Passengers have been advised to check the latest schedules while planning their travel.

The resumption of direct flights to Muscat is expected to significantly benefit expatriates, business travellers and others, further strengthening Mangaluru’s air connectivity with the Gulf region.
