Be ready to resign if Centre fails to proclaim Ram Mandir ordinance: Pejawar seer tells BJP MPs

Mangaluru, Nov 25: Vishwesha Teertha Swami of Pejavar Mutt, who is one of the mastermind behind the decades old Ayodhya movement today urged all the BJP MPs to be ready to tender their resignation if the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led union government fails to bring out an ordinance for the construction of Ram Mandir. 

Speaking at the Janagraha convention organised by the Sangh Parivar at Nehru Maidan in the city on Sunday to drum up public support for construction of temple for Ram in the land of Babri mosque, the seer said: "The issue should be discussed during the Winter Session of the Parliament beginning December 11." 

He demanded the BJP to take up the issue on priority and warned that the saffron party would not win the elections in 2019 otherwise.

The meeting was organised in accordance with wishes of religious leaders in Delhi recently that such meetings should be held all across the country to whip up support for the issue. Terming the inordinate delay in building the temple as an insult and betrayal of the entire country, the Seer said there cannot be any compromise on the issue as Ayodhya was no less sacred than a mother.

“Hindus were hopeful that the Modi government will build the Ram Mandir during its tenure. Four-and-a-half years on, it hasn’t been able to deliver on this front. We need to encourage the government and pressure it to build the temple next year. There cannot be any comprise on this issue. The MPs should be ready to even step down if need arises and the government fails to deliver,” the seer said addressing a large gathering who sat on the ground in rapt attention, resembling a blanket of Saffron.

He said if there was no positive development in this regard by January next, all the Sadhus will unitedly take up a decision during the Kumbh Mela to be held in February, he said, giving an indirect warning to the government. He said it required a comprehensive coordination of the government, society and the sadhus in realizing the long-pending dream.

Calling this was the right time to build the temple; he said the Congress would not raise any objections as the elections were nearing. He said the fact that Ayodhya issue was being discussed when the Lok Sabha polls were around the corner should not be considered as a move to drum up support to any political party.

Sohan Singh Solanki, national coordinator of the Bajrang Dal, said the BJP would win the 2019 polls only if it started the construction of the Ram Mandir, else it would bite the dust. He said India will see ‘Achhey Din’ only after Ram Mandir became a reality.

God know what is going at their home of this bhakts. instead of doing such protest if they concentrate on family and personal issues atleast they would get peaceful life. There are many famous temples all over India, is they bothered to visit once in a year?If Also if they do some social work atleast needy people can get benefits.

Bantwal: A domestic dispute appears to have led to a violent confrontation in BC Road area, where the owner of a textile shop was allegedly attacked with a knife by his wife on Wednesday evening.

Krishna Kumar Somayaji, the owner of Somayaji Textiles, sustained serious injuries in the incident and was immediately taken to a hospital for treatment. He is currently receiving care in the intensive care unit and is reported to have survived the assault, according to police.

The Bantwal Town police have registered a case against Somayaji's wife, Jyothi KT, who has since been taken into custody.

Police stated that the complainant, Namita, an employee at the shop, reported the sequence of events. She stated that around 7 p.m. on Wednesday, the suspect entered the shop, wearing a burqa and disguised as a customer, before attacking Somayaji with a knife. The employee then transported the injured owner to a local hospital via an autorickshaw.

Superintendent of Police Arun K confirmed that an ongoing domestic dispute between Somayaji and his wife reportedly preceded the attack. Police noted that Jyothi KT had previously visited the shop and issued threats.

Based on the complaint, Bantwal Town police have registered a case under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Indian Arms Act-1959. An investigation into the incident is currently underway.

Udupi, Dec 1: A horrific case of alleged rape has unfolded in Udupi, where a worker from a Hindutva organisation, previously arrested and released on bail for harassing a young woman, is now accused of waylaying and sexually assaulting her.

The arrested individual has been identified as Pradeep Poojary (26), a member of the Hindu Jagarana Vedike's Nairkode unit in Perdur.

Poojary had allegedly been relentlessly harassing the young woman, pressuring her to marry him. When she bravely stood up to him and refused his demands, she filed a formal complaint at the Hiriyadka police station. He was subsequently arrested in that initial harassment case but was later granted bail.

According to police reports, driven by the same malicious grudge, Poojary allegedly intercepted the woman again on November 29. While she was walking through a deserted area, the accused is claimed to have threatened her by grabbing her neck. When she again refused to marry him, he allegedly proceeded to rape her.

The survivor immediately informed her family about the traumatic assault. Following this, her parents lodged a complaint at the Udupi women’s police station.

Police arrested Poojary again and produced him before the court. He has since been remanded to judicial custody.

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.
