Maintain Hindu fabric of the country; can solve economic issues later: Subramanian Swamy

Belagavi, Nov 8: BJP leader and controversial “economist” Subramanian Swamy has urged the government and people to give priority to Hinduism over solving economic issues of the country.

Delivering a talk on “Intellectual Terrorism” organised by Prabhudha Bharat organisation at the KLE Centenary Convention Hall recently, Swamy said that economic issues could be resolved at any time, but continuous efforts should be made in maintaining the true Hindu fabric of the country.

He claimed that he was behind the ouster of Raghuram Rajan from the RBI. He is not an economist at all. I thank the Modi government for supporting my move, he said.

‘Rahul and Sonia will be jailed’

He ridiculed Congress leaders and said AICC president Sonia Gandhi and vice-president Rahul Gandhi would go to jail soon for their involvement in several scams. It is not Indian National Congress. It is Italian Congress party, he said.

He defined intellectual terrorism as “something that makes you believe what you should not and do what you should not”.

He said he was not anti–Muslim, but expected them to live in cultural harmony with Hindus while following theological principles of the Holy Quran. Muslim women supported BJP in U.P. as it was the only party talking against triple Talaq, he said. He also said that Muslim women should be given inheritance rights to property (Interestingly, Muslim women have been enjoying the property inheritance rights since the beginning).

Kamal Haasan slammed

Swamy also criticised actor Kamal Haasan over his remarks on “Hindu terror.” He said actors were trying to enter politics in Tamil Nadu after their cinematic careers were fading.

He said there was no need to give much importance to Tipu Sultan as he had fought the British after taking money from the French, who were opposed to them. He also held socialism responsible for keeping the country backward.

Rajya Sabha member and KLE chairman Prabhakar Kore, Suresh Angadi, MP, industrialist Vijay Usalkar, Chaitanya Kulkarni of Prabuddha Bharat, and others were present.

No one including his own party takes him seriously,he is looking for some green pastures since the BJP came in to power.This statement is to please his RSS boses.Alas,no use-Modi or Shah never ever will induct him to any considerable position.

What is wrong to others is right to him. Being verbally pugnacious is integral to his personality. Promotion of Brand Swamy is essential for his survival and Twitter is an important platform for his often ludicrous comments and observations. keep Spitting Swamy!

I can say Modi is the best intelligent person in the world. And he should get business man of the year award. 

Because,

 

1. Modi made huge benefit to Paytm (paytm ceo didnt do this much profit for his company)

 

2. Modi made profit to the private agency which made/maintaning aadhar things.

3. Modi made profit to Jio

 

4. Modi made profit to big companies by implementing demonetisation and GST (same time it affected badly on small scale retailer shop)

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.

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.

Mangaluru, Dec 3: A group of Congress workers gathered at the Mangaluru International Airport on Wednesday to welcome AICC general secretary K C Venugopal, but the reception quickly turned into a display of support for Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar.

Venugopal arrived in the city to participate in the centenary commemoration of the historic dialogue between Mahatma Gandhi and Narayana Guru. The event, organised by the Sivagiri Mutt, Varkala, in association with the Mangalore University Sri Narayana Guru Study Chair, is being held on the university’s Konaje campus.

KPCC general secretary Mithun Rai and several party workers had assembled at the airport to receive Venugopal. However, the moment he stepped out, workers began raising slogans backing Shivakumar.

The university programme will be inaugurated by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

This show of support comes just a day after Siddaramaiah remarked that Shivakumar would lead the government “when the high command decides.” The chief minister made the comment after a breakfast meeting at Shivakumar’s residence—another public display of camaraderie between the two leaders amid ongoing attempts by the party high command to downplay their leadership rivalry.
