Hindutva rowdies' killed my son; I won't forgive them: BJP activist's mother

October 9, 2016

Udupi, Oct 9: Baby Poojary, the mother of BJP activist Praveen Poojary, who was beaten to death while transporting cattle in August, has said that she won't forgive the Hindutva activists, who are responsible for her son's death.

When a delegation of Chalo Udupi-Swabhimani Sangharsha Jatha' visited her house at Kenjoor village, 3km from Santhekatte in Udupi two days ago, the aggrieved mother burst into tears recalling her bread winner son's death.

"We have cattle at home and value it. The Hindutva group activists who killed my son are not animal lovers. In the name of cattle protection, they showed rowdyism. He was the bread-winner of the family," she said.

A group of cow vigilantes owing allegiance to Hindutva groups on August 17 had lynched Praveen Poojary, 29, a BJP worker, to death for allegedly indulging in illegal cattle transpiration in Udupi district.

Praveen owned a tempo rickshaw and ran a chicken stall in his village. He also headed a standing committee of the BJP's Santhekatte unit.

Got should punish the culprits.

Let those culprits stink in jail....dont help them to come out from where they are....

Among the things that the Prophet Muhammed pbuh said to Mauadh RA. When he dispatched him to govern over Yemen was \ And be wary of the supplication of the oppressed, for between it and ALLAH (God) there is no baririer\"

In QURAN
We see Noah pbuh supplicated against his people when they oppressed him, spurned him and rejected his call.

Also Moses pbuh beseeched ALLAH in supplication against the most powerful tyrant of his time 'Pharoah' after he transgressed, oppressed and tyrannized Moses's people. Allah answered his supplication. The oppressor's lot is disgrace in this world and a painful chastisement in the hereafter...

Please Stop hating others..."

Tears of this poor mother will not go vain!!

December 15,2025

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.
