Bengaluru, Oct 31: Bearys are known for their honesty in pursuit of their activities in all fields upholding moral values in life and has contributed immensely for education especially in the field of education for girl students, said former Prime Minister and Janata Dal (Secular) supremo H D Deve Gowda.
He was speaking at a function organised by Bearys' Welfare Association to disburse merit awards to the outstanding students of the community who excelled in various public examinations.
Mr Gowda said that it was apt for JD(S) to nominate industrialist BM Farooq as a candidate of the party in the last Rajya Sabha election as a recognition to the community in particular and the minorities in general.
“Though we could not get him elected, the allegiance to the party was continued by Mr. Farooq true to the values the community stood for. It is therefore incumbent on JD(S) party to see that the community is rewarded with a position equivalent to that enjoyed by U T Khader in the present Government,” he said.
He said that even though many leaders from the community betrayed the trust by the party, Mr. Farooq a Byari lived up to the expectations of the party even after his defeat in the Rajyasabha election.
Mr Gowda also said that his party is conscious that common civil code cannot be forced upon the minorities. “JD(S) will strive hard to protect the interests of Muslims and other minority communities as envisaged under our Constitution," he said.
U T Khader, Minister for Food and Civil Supplies, Mohiuddin Bava and N A Haris, MLAs also spoke on the occasion.
Fouzia and Sameera from Dakshina Kannada, who are running an educational institution, were felicitated for their outstanding contributions to the community in the field of education.
B A Mohideen, former minister for education and the recipient of Devaraj Urs award, was honoured in the function. BM Farooq, the President of Bearys' Welfare Association, welcomed the gathering.
