Please don't withdraw the nomination, if you withdraw then definitely congress will lose for sure.

Abdul Gafoor Bhai, vote SDPI in APRIL for a real alternative ...

SDPI should take back thier nomination as there is a easy chance for BJP to sweep as congress and SDPI votes will divide.. SDPI should re think as they do not have enough supporters

good decision....all muslim must vote for SDPI...

in DK we have 6 lak hindu and 6 lak muslim face to face number...

rest 2 lak christ & 2 lak dalith also 1 lak unknow...

if muslim+dalit+christ unite...no one can break the chain forever...

all the best ilyas sir...

Why though! They will get around 1-2% which might be a deciding factor.

Probably, SDPI should really think about the future of the region, as well as the country, this time.

A Gatbhandan is really needed now!

Good for BJP

‘Profit’ trap: Mangaluru trader duped of ₹33.1 lakh in online App scam

News Network

December 7,2025

Mangaluru, Dec 7: A 34-year-old fruit and vegetable trader in Mangaluru has reportedly lost ₹33.1 lakh after falling victim to an online investment scam run through a fake mobile app.

Police said the scam began in September, when the victim received a link on Facebook. Clicking it connected him to a WhatsApp number, where an unidentified person introduced a high-return investment scheme and instructed him to download an app.

To build trust, the fraudster asked him to invest ₹30,000 on September 24. The trader soon received ₹34,000 as “profit,” convincing him the scheme was genuine. Over the next two months, he transferred money in multiple instalments via Google Pay and IMPS to different scanner codes and bank accounts shared by the scammers. Between September 24 and December 3, he ended up sending a total of ₹33.1 lakh.

When he later requested a refund of his investment and promised returns, the scammers demanded additional payments, claiming he needed to pay a “service tax” first. Even after he paid a small amount, no money was returned, and the scammers continued pressuring him for more.

A case has been registered at the CEN Crime Police Station.
