Sangh Parivar united on anti-minority agenda'

April 16, 2012

Udupi, April 16: Although there were differences within the Sangh Parivar on various issues, they were completely united on their anti-minority agenda, opined thinker Pattabhirama Somayaji.

He was speaking at the “Protect Constitution Day” rally and meeting to mark the 121st birth anniversary of B.R. Ambedkar here. The rally and meeting were organised by the Karnataka Dalit Sangharsha Samiti, Karnataka Komu Sauharda Vedike, District Minorities Forum, Catholic Sabha, Zilla Muslim Okkoota, Bharatiya Christa Okoota, and Jamaat-e-Islami Hind.

“The Sangh Parivar had said that it would make Karnataka into another Gujarat. It had successfully achieved its aim”, he said.

Writer G. Rajashekhar said that the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government had turned the Constitutional system upside down in the State.

Mr. Rajashekhar said the BJP Government was not just anti-constitutional and corrupt, but also was against minority communities. The behaviour of the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly K.G. Bopaiah had shown that both he and the State government had no concern for the Constitution.

The former Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa was repeatedly saying that he was innocent till proven guilty.

But he was not ready to extend the same logic to the minority communities, who had been at the receiving end of the violence of the Sangh Parivar.

‘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.
