Mysuru, Aug 25: Accusing the members of Popular Front of India (PFI) of indulging in anti-social asocial activities, Mysuru MP?Pratap Simha has urged the Karnataka government to ban the organization and arrest its leaders.

Speaking to media persons here on Wednesday, he said that the Karnataka state is turning into a safe haven for terrorists and the police must arrest the culprits. He said, he was also threatened and attacked several times.

“The government should immediately ban organizations like PFI and Karnataka Forum for Dignity in order to maintain peace and harmony in the society,” he said.

The BJP leader said that a group of powerful' people are inciting the anti-social elements to disturb peace in the city of Mysuru. “As Dasara is nearing, lakhs of people visit the city and culprits may indulge in violence. The police department, which has details about the miscreants, should arrest the anti-social elements,” he said.

Pointing at the murder of RSS?worker K?Raju in Udayagiri, under Narasimha Raja Assembly constituency, the MP?said, a majority of anti-social elements live in the constituency. He congratulated the city police and Commissioner B?Dayananda for the arrest of Abid Pasha, the prime accused in the murder case of Raju.

“The accused had criminal background and he was involved in other murders and crimes in parts of the state. Pasha had targeted a few other dignitaries. There are a few powerful people behind him (Pasha) and other anti-social elements,” Simha said.

Simha reiterated that Raju was killed as he was opposing a mosque in his locality, Kyathamaranahalli. “The area was residential and a few Muslim people were planning to construct a mosque, illegally. Though the dispute was taken to the then Deputy Commissioner C?Shikha, the district administration did not take any measure to solve it. Now, if any untoward incident happens, the district administration will be held responsible,” the MP?warned.

Taking a dig at Tanveer Sait, who represents NR?constituency, for the untoward incident. “Instead of condemning the murder of Raju, Sait had said that Raju was a rowdy-sheeter. Now, the state government has rewarded him with a ministership. The government has lost sensitivity and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is treating the Opposition party as his enemy,” said the MP.

It was during the time of 1998 i remember many innocent Muslims were killed in anti muslim riots across mangalore at that time there were no organisation came forward to resist against the rioters only all believed in police, administration and the so called Secular political party leaders, but no one came for saving the lives of innocent people. Alhumdulillah today because of some muslim group's efforts and continues resistance communal riots reduced drastically.!!!

Mr.Pratap
Couple of days back members of one of the famous terrorist organisation i.e Bajarangdal and VHP murdered Praveen poojary in the name of GOW rakhshaks. Where were you that time??? Why didn't you make any press conference and tell government to Ban BD & VHP.
My suggestion is to you that if government of India BAN BD,RSS,VHP,RS then automatically peace will establish.

So PFI on right track. Chances of BJP and chaddi parivaar are minimizing to create communal violence and violation of harmony in State.
So finally this Simha accepted that PFI is the big threat of BJP and Chaddi parivaar.

NO PFI or KFD person caught in terror attack but its clear that RSS & BJP workers caught in so many terror attack in India & preparing bomb, explosives.... RSS is taking our India to terror hub & spoiling harmony among people.....

public should unite against such organisation & stop electing person as our representative who spread hatred among communities... Government should arrest all RSS chaddis who are involved in illegal activities & hang them....

Udupi, Dec 2: A wave of regional pride is sweeping through Udupi district as Shagun S Verma Hegde, a talented Class 9 student from Christ King English Medium High School, Karkala, has been named the captain of the Indian National Team for the Under-15 Girls’ Volleyball Championship.

Shagun holds the unique distinction of being the sole player from Karnataka selected to represent the country in the prestigious international tournament. The championship, organized by the School Games Federation, is scheduled to take place in Shangluo, China, from December 3 to 13, where Shagun will lead the national squad.

A Remarkable Journey to the Top

Shagun’s selection is a testament to her dedication and exceptional skill on the court. Her journey included several rigorous rounds of selection:

•    She was the only player from Udupi district to qualify for the state-level selection camp.

•    Out of eight players from Karnataka who advanced to the national selection camp in Pune, Maharashtra, Shagun was the only one to secure a place in the final national squad.

•    The national camp saw participation from approximately 200 players, which was shortlisted to 23. Shagun not only made the final cut but was also ranked as the second-best player overall, solidifying her leadership role.

Shagun, who is the daughter of Sandesh Verma and Shruthiraj of Kallotte, Karkala, has trained under experienced coaches Santosh D’Souza, Jeevan D’Silva, Jairaj Poojary, and Ramesh. Her selection as the team captain has brought profound honour to her family, school, the Udupi district, and the entire state of Karnataka.

New Delhi: Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah and deputy CM DK Shivakumar on Saturday put up a dramatic display of unity at a closely watched joint press briefing, firmly dismissing weeks of speculation about a power-sharing tussle within the Congress. With the high command nudging both leaders to sit together and settle the dust, the meeting became a political spectacle, ending with the duo declaring that there was “no confusion, no differences.”

Calling the reports of a rift “manufactured confusion,” Siddaramaiah said the talks had gone smoothly, even joking about their breakfast. “Breakfast was very good. All three of us enjoyed it,” he said. “We want to end this confusion once and for all. For local elections and for 2028, our mission is clear — Congress must return to power. There is no difference between me and DKS, not now, not before.”

He blamed the media for fuelling rumours and reiterated absolute adherence to the party leadership. “From tomorrow, let there be no confusion. What the high command says, we will follow.”

Siddaramaiah also assured that the Assembly session starting December 8 would run smoothly and vowed that Congress would take on the BJP and JD(S) “together.”

Shivakumar echoed the chief minister word for word, stressing loyalty and discipline. “People have given us a massive mandate. It is our duty to deliver,” he said. “This government was formed under Siddaramaiah’s leadership. We both have complete trust in the high command. If they tell me to wait, I will wait.”

He added that the two leaders had discussed strategy for the 2028 Assembly elections. “Whatever the CM says, I agree. We are loyal soldiers of the party. The party may be facing challenges nationally, but we will keep it strong in Karnataka.”

Shivakumar also said Siddaramaiah would soon visit his home for lunch or dinner — another symbolic gesture meant to underline their unity.

Both leaders later posted on social media describing the breakfast meeting as “productive” and focused on “Karnataka’s priorities.”

The BJP, however, rejected the show of camaraderie as “pure bunkum,” accusing Congress of trying to paper over an internal power struggle. But Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar insisted their united front would continue — and that there was “no confusion” within the state leadership.

Bengaluru: 'Nati koli saaru' (country chicken curry) considered one of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s favourites along with steaming hot idlis was on the breakfast menu at Deputy CM D K Shivakumar’s residence on Tuesday, according to official sources.

The spread also included 'nati koli' fry, vada and pongal, among other items, they said.

In an apparent show of unity, Siddaramaiah visited Shivakumar’s residence for breakfast, just days after the two leaders shared a meal amid a simmering power tussle in the state Congress.

Siddaramaiah drove to the Deputy CM’s residence in Sadashivanagar, where he was received by Shivakumar and his brother D K Suresh, who is a former Congress MP.

Suresh and Kunigal MLA H D Ranganath, a relative of Shivakumar, joined them for breakfast, which featured a mix of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes.

Speaking to reporters later, Siddaramaiah said Shivakumar had invited him during his visit to the CM’s residence for breakfast on Saturday.

Asked about the difference between the two meals, the chief minister said, "At his (Shivakumar’s) house it was non-veg, while at my house it was veg. He is a vegetarian, I am a non-vegetarian. I had not prepared non-veg. I told DK to get chicken from the village as you won’t get the original in Bengaluru."

Shivakumar said he had initially invited Siddaramaiah to his residence, but the CM had suggested visiting his place first and reciprocating later. "It was a vegetarian breakfast at the CM’s house on Saturday," he noted.

"Today, I invited him (the CM) to my house. He enjoyed the breakfast, which had his Mysuru taste," Shivakumar added. At this point, Siddaramaiah remarked that Shivakumar’s wife is also from Mysuru.

Saturday’s breakfast at Siddaramaiah’s official residence, held as part of efforts by the Congress high command to ease tensions in the leadership dispute between the two, reportedly included idlis and sambar, according to official sources.
