Namasthe to all.Islam,Jewish Religion and Christianity are Semitic religions.They do not consider other religions as religions.Yehovah and Allah are none other than LORD SHIVA.MOSES' tomb is in KASHMIR.
JESUS CHRIST'S TOMB is in KASHMIR.KA'ABA IN MECCA IS A ShIVA TEMPLE. ANGEL GABRIEL IS NONE OTHER THAN GODDESS PARVATI. In HINDU religion GOD is formless and merciful to all people irrespective of their creed and race. Jews and Arabs are originated in Bharat. ABRAHAM AND SARAH ARE LORD BRAHMA AND GODDESS SARASWATI. NOAH IS NONE OTHER MANU THE PROGENITOR OF HUMAN KIND. HINDUS should deeply study their religion and other religions.

All religion is a manual for human kind to follow the guidelines of righteousness.These all religions are part of Gods revelation and we humans have intepreted for our own benefits.Hence there is variations and divisions.Those don't trust then one should do the research and conclude, rather puting your own knowledge based on assumptions.

Any one who search for truth and try to find out the reality of himself and universe will ultimately embrace Islam. As no religion except Islam gives the scientific and logical answer to the creation of universe. So the requirement is only to educate people and develop a sense to search for truth and not live the life of animal without thinking of beginning and end of this universe.

Dear Nagaraj Ramarao... (#35)

When U say there is no GOD but ALLAH and Muhammad pbuh is the messenger of GOD... All your sins are forgiven even if it is as big as a mountain...ALLAH is most forgiving and Most merciful...

It is better for you to look Who is ALLAH and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad pbuh.. If you read QURAN...U will be introduced to the REALITY of this LIFE ... and there is a special message from God directly to YOU and ME .. who is the CREATION of HIM. It is the best blessing one should have to connect with the CREATOR. So i request all non muslims to read with open heart \ the message of the CREATOR 'The QURAN'\"

When ALLAH forgives him Who are WE to throw Him... Everything is in the hands of ALLAH and those who are blessed with the knowledge of TRUTH are blessed...Cos people who keep HATRED and EVIL are in DARKNESS from this BLESSINGS ... and we SEE lot of HATRED and EVIL coming out of RSS headquarters which many youth follow BLINDLY without knowing the REALITY of LIFE."

Pakistan is a republic country not an Islamic sharia (law) following country.If Islam was spread & preached by sword as some people think it would not be the fastest growing religion in US,Europe..I remember a conference held in Chennai by Dr.Zakir Naik in which he requested to Hindu brothers to preach Sanskrit to their children & made an appeal to then ruling party of INDIA BJP & requested to Bjp's NDA chief MR.LAL KRISHNA ADVANI & PM of our country at that period MR.ATAL BIHARI VAJPAYEE to make Sanskrit compulsory in schools so that everyone can read VEDAS. Hindu brothers please read your authentic vedas then read QURAN & dont fall prey to political people. MIM leader Asad uddin Owaisi is a straight forward practicing Muslim who don't fears RSS & its ideologies .may I know a single freedom fighters name from RSS.

Brothers who ever comment here against Sushil Kumar Jain's decision. Hazrath Umar was a staunch enemy of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) who set out in a morning to kill him wielding sword in his hand. But previous night prophet asked to the creator of the universe to assist him by giving straight path to one of the two either Abu Jahal or Umar. Almighty has accepted his prayer and gave Islam to Umar. We wont even wonder if Modi or Ram Bagawath accepts Islam. It is all in His hand. We just keep going peacefully on the way of our prophet Muhammed peace be upon him.

The brothers who comment negative to Sushil Kumar Jain's decision should understand here one thing. This kind of miracle is in the hands of the creator. Umar the staunch enemy of our prophet Muhammad who set out to kill him wielding the sword in his hand. But previous night prophet prayed to Allah to assist him with one of the two either Abu Jahal or Umar. Allah accepted prophet's prayer and gave straight path to Umar. Even we Muslims wont wonder if Ram Bagawath or Modi accepts Islam. It is all in His hand.

ALHAMDULLILLAH (Thanks to ALLAH)... ALLAHU AKBAR (God is GREATEST)
There is NO GOD but ALLAH..& MUHAMMAD pbuh is the LAST & FINAL messenger & Slave of ALLAH.
Prophet Muhammad pbuh taught us
There is only one God ALLAH
There were many prophet sent by ALLAH to convey this message to the People.
He selected the prophet from their own group to convey this message of ONENESS...
In SHAA ALLAH in near future... we will see more enemies of present INDIA will follow when they come to know the REALITY of ONE GOD
When we know the REALITY of TRUTH, they will know that those who WORSHIP man made Gods are in FALSE.

Dear HINDU brothers ... READ QURAN and UNDERSTAND what it says if U are really honest ... ALLAH will GUIDE U ALL>>.. & U will surely RECOGNIZE the devils of the SOciety which is encouraging YOU to commit violence... Please read QURAN and THINK & PONDER what it SAYS.

Puttur: The long-cherished dream of a government medical college in Puttur has moved a decisive step closer to reality, with the Karnataka State Finance Department granting its official approval for the construction of a new 300-bed hospital.

Puttur MLA Ashok Kumar Rai announced the crucial development to reporters on Monday, confirming that the official communication from the finance department was issued on November 27. This 300-bed facility is intended to be the cornerstone for the establishment of the government medical college, a project announced in the state budget.

Fast-Track Implementation

The MLA outlined an aggressive timeline for the project:

•    A Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the hospital is expected to be ready within 45 days.

•    The tender process for the construction will be completed within two months.

Following the completion of the tender process, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is scheduled to lay the foundation stone for the project.

"Setting up a medical college in Puttur is a historical decision by the Congress government in Karnataka," Rai stated. The project has an estimated budget allocation of Rs 1,000 crore for the medical college.

Focus on Medical Education Department

The MLA highlighted a key strategic move: requesting the government to implement the hospital construction through the Medical Education Department instead of the Health and Family Welfare Department. This is intended to streamline the entire process of establishing the full medical college, ensuring the facilities—including labs, operation theatres, and other necessary infrastructure—adhere to the strict guidelines set by the Medical Council of India (MCI). The proposed site for the project is in Bannur.

Rai also took the opportunity to address political criticism, stating that the government has fulfilled its promise despite "apprehensions" and "mocking and criticising" from opposition parties who had failed to take similar initiatives when they were in power. "Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has kept his word," he added.

Mangaluru: In a significant step to curb online hate and intimidation, Mangaluru City Police have registered a suo motu case against multiple Instagram accounts accused of circulating alleged provocative and threatening content.

While monitoring social media activity on Tuesday, Kankanady Town PSI Anitha Nikkam identified the Instagram handle ‘team_targetttt_900’ for posting a hate message alongside images of lethal weapons. Another account, ‘team_nagara_900’, allegedly shared a threatening post targeting activist Bharath Kumdelu, tagging additional pages such as KARAVALI-OFFICIAL.

Several other accounts — including ‘immu_bhai.fan’, ‘target_boy_900’, ‘kings_of_manglore’, ‘team_target_boys.900’, ‘arshad_mangalore’, ‘target_ka19_ullal’, ‘team_target__’, ‘troll_tigersz_900’, ‘tr_group_900’, and ‘team_target_900’ — are also under scrutiny for spreading similar inflammatory material, police said.

Authorities have urged citizens, especially young social media users, to report suspicious pages and avoid engaging with groups that glorify violence or threaten individuals. Online hate can quickly escalate into real-world harm, and police stress that sharing or promoting such content can attract legal consequences.

Udupi: The pontiffs of Sri Paryaya Puttige Mutt, the sacred seat of Jagadguru Shrimad Madhvacharya Moola Samsthanam, have submitted a proposal to the Prime Minister seeking comprehensive development for Udupi district. 

Proposal for International Airport

A key request is the establishment of an international airport. Highlighting that around 1,000 acres of land are available and suitable, the pontiffs noted that the existing Mangalore Airport provides limited international connectivity. They suggested the airport be developed under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) or as a Greenfield Airport to boost trade, education, healthcare, and spiritual tourism.

Metro and Rapid Transit Connectivity

The proposal also calls for Metro Rail or Rapid Transit between Mangaluru and Udupi. The 55 km coastal stretch experiences heavy daily commuter traffic, causing congestion. The district administration is ready to prepare an initial project report for a Mass Rapid Transit corridor and requested inclusion under national urban mobility programmes to ensure safe, green, and time-efficient regional transport.

Port and Coastal Development

The pontiffs urged the development of an international-standard port with a cruise terminal along Udupi’s coast. They also requested fast-tracking of pending coastal tourism projects and revising Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) norms to encourage sustainable infrastructure and hospitality investment.

IT, AI and Technological Infrastructure

Support was sought for an IT and AI Innovation Park with incubation facilities under Digital India and Startup India initiatives. The proposal also emphasized the need for strengthened data security and cloud computing infrastructure to boost India’s technological independence.

Sports and Education Initiatives

The pontiffs requested national sports status for Kambala, along with financial and infrastructure support. They also sought the establishment of an AIIMS in Udupi, a new IIT campus, and approval for an IIM to promote higher education in the district.

Representation to the Prime Minister

Sri Sugunendra Tirtha Pontiff and Sri Sushrendra Tirtha Swamiji represented the pontiffs in submitting the comprehensive development proposal to the Prime Minister during his recent visit.
