Mangaluru, Feb 23: Social Democratic Party of India, which had fielded a handful of candidates in Muslim dominant areas of Dakshina Kannada in just concluded panchayat polls, failed to open its account in Zilla and Taluk panchayats in the district.

SDPI had managed to win one seat in Mangaluru City Corporation in 2013. Moreover, of the 272 candidates fielded by SDPI in 2015 gram panchayat polls in Dakshina Kannada, around 45 candidates had won.
Buoyed by these successes, the 7-year-old party had left no stone unturned to grab a portion of Congress vote bank and make a dent in the recent elections in the coastal district.
As expected the presence of SDPI candidate Riyaz in fray in Pudu ZP constituency, helped the BJP candidate Ravindra Kambali to defeat Congress candidate and social activist Umar Farooq with a margin of 1632 votes. Mr Kambali bagged 8,553 votes while Mr Farooq secured 6921 votes. SDPI candidate bagged 4167 votes.
The Pudu ZP seat (Bantwal taluk), which falls under Mangaluru Assembly constituency represented by health minister UT Khader, was so far known as a bastion of Congress party.
However, BJP Minority Morcha leader Rahim Uchil and SDPI district president Haneef Khan Kodaje have rubbished the claim that SDPI indirectly helped BJP. They both claimed that the Congress continued to fool the minorities by pointing fingers at other parties for their failure in coastal Karnataka.

Bjp won the election, because they utilised SSF and SDPI according to their plan. Muslim's enemies are Muslims itself has been proved in this election.
In politics all parties are same. Just wants to win election by fooling innocent voters, Because voters have no choice and they are like punching bags. political parties use all their weapons against each other. In one side bjp abuse sdpi but in other end they makes plan and execute it together against the major opposition. One who plays and execute the trick smartly in politics is going to be the winner. Muslims voters should be careful while voting. Muslims should choose able candidate and vote for him. Should not be worried for the party.
Dear zareena ,
Please study Indian history and then comment about Sdpi and saying them fools.
Forget about Sdpi and what did your favourite so called congress party given to Indian Muslim I agree we got one thing that is we are back thrown than Dalits
800 years India have been ruled by Muslims but if you properly study the history u will realise what exactly .
After independence u know how many years congress ruled they utilised as vote banks. after India got independence this so called congress made Indian Muslims backward
comming to your educated and uneducated comment please study properly about the graduates in Sdpi and the professionals don't think Sdpi people are fools

For your kind info, Sdpi haven't contested anywhere in Udupi then how come bjp took over all the seats, being a media don't post biased articles.
Be a true media
SDPI Votes increasing rapidly
In 2013 - ULB Election 4%
2013 – MLA Election 6%
2015 – Grama Panchayath election 9%
2016 – ZP and TP Election 15%
Nearly 15% voted for SDPI
BJP has taken 9 year to reach 15%, Congress took 14 years to reach 15%
Alhamdulliha within 7 Years SDPI taken 15% votes
But why Muslims are voting against congress??? And why Muslims should vote for Congress??? this is the million dollar question??
Though we have many ministers , MLA & MLC from congress could not protect minorities from the goondagiri of Sangha Pariwar. Bajranga Dal is deciding who will come to Mangalore (Eg. Jakir Naik issue) One way this government's inaction to curb violence of Sanga Pariwar made minorities to lose their faith on Congress. It was seen by everyone in this district that these goons closed cinema halls, Muslim boys were beaten, made naked, in the name of cow many Muslims were beaten, etc. etc. but these ministers and MLA’s to keep the majority happy ,,,, nothing has done to curb these goons.
These are the reason Muslim wants to against congress, A known enemy is better than the friend who always stabs behind.
SDPI which fielded its candidates at only 3 ZP constituencies and succeeded in securing 9% votes.
The performance of this party at Pudu was really amazing as the 1st time contestant Riyaz Farangipete secured 22.06% votes, Congress got 36.65% whereas BJP won by securing 40% votes.
The Taluk Panchayat results, where SDPI fielded its candidates at 18 places across DK and succeeded in securing 17.23% of votes.
In Bajpe, SDPi candidate Shahnaz lost to her nearest BJP candidate by a margin of merely 280 votes. Here the congress got 1073. In fact, the congress's candidature helped BJP to win the election. Irony is that, at nearby Jokatte constituency, both Congress and BJP party workers were seen together in the victory celebration. By looking the photos and video of the way they celebrated the victory, The minority community must have decided whom to vote during the next election.
There is a saying
'' A Stone is broken by the last stroke of the hammer, this doesn't mean that the first stroke is useless. success is the result of continuous effort''
So the Congress is already a broken mud brick........will vanish after few years .....SDPI will be victorious .....BJP will be a next target
they cant bear the pain of lose, so some spoons are in field......in the last elections of 4-5 years, they didnot have such stroke, but this time.....
#Sinan, what is official culture, first time I hear such A wOrd. wa marl ya.... aat arta apuja awu ponn att, ponnana pudar d padina comment aaate........
Yeregavu ee kirkiri.....
EEE SDPI CHENT BJP AAAITH.....NO WONDER THIS IS HIDDEN WING OF RSS...
Cong is Supporting RSS But Our Muslim Cong Brother Think they are King.
But This Time to Unit.
All Please dont comment on Other and Comment your self
The election was free and fair. It seems Congress Party which has been contesting the election since independence doesn't like to accept the defeat. Or the writer must be thinking against the constitution which allows any person/party whether new or old to contest the election. And the voter have the right to vote for any candidate. If the voter doesn't like any of the candidate contested, then he/she may vote for NOTA.
Now, let's look at the 7 year old political party SDPI which fielded its candidates at only 3 ZP constituencies and succeeded in securing 9% votes.
The performance of this party at Pudu was really amazing as the 1st time contestant Riyaz Farangipete secured 22.06% votes, Congress got 36.65% whereas BJP won by securing 40% votes.
This brought a new hope to this new party.
If we look deep into the Taluk Panchayat results, where SDPI fielded its candidates at 18 places across DK and succeeded in securing 17.23% of votes.
In Bajpe, SDPi candidate Shahnaz lost to her nearest BJP candidate by a margin of merely 280 votes. Here the congress got 1073. In fact, the congress's candidature helped BJP to win the election. Irony is that, at nearby Jokatte constituency, both Congress and BJP party workers were seen together in the victory celebration. By looking the photos and video of the way they celebrated the victory, The minority community must have decided whom to vote during the next election.
Abusing woman and calling her a fool is the official culture of fools like BJP and SDPI
Dear Zareena Ahmed I think u r a big fool. Dear fool, first I want to ask u how much of benefit minorities got from the so called parties from the last so many years. Dear , Cong, JDS, and BJp has already fooled minorities and still u want to support the Babri Masjid demolishers. Y don't u blame BJP, Cong and JDS minority morcha who helped directly to defeat SDPI.....insha'Allah a day will come the only one party that is SDPI will bring back the secularism.
BJP won in UDUPI even after SDPI not fielded any candidates. Poor SSF bhakts, sorry Chakravarthy Soolibele's bhakts happy now after reading this report.
there is no similarity between BJP & SDPI .
SDPI candidates are Educated
IF you have any doubt You can check their EDUCATION don't Lie
Whatever the biased news u highlight sdpi will not lose its popularity al hamdulillah vote increased which indicates the downfall of cheating Politics of congress in coming future we will definitely win thanks for all voters who voted for us
I do agree that SDPI is spoiling the secular or muslim votes.
It has been benefitting BJP. BJP is always happy whenever SDPI candidates stand infront of congress/bjp.
But why muslims are voting against congress??? this is the million dollar question??
Though we have many ministers , mla, mlc from congress could not protect minorities from the goondagiri of Sangha Pariwar. One way this government's inaction to curb violence of Sanga Pariwar made minorities to loose their faith on Congress. It was seen by everyone in this district that these goons entered church, beat the nurse, priest , innocent people , destroyed church and even the statue of jesus .... though the culprits are roaming freely without any action. Muslim boys were beaten, made naked, in the name of cow many muslims were beaten, etc. etc. but these ministers and mla's to keep the majority happy ,,,, nothing has done to curb these goons.
Prabhaker bhat and his some of the Sangha pariwar openly threatened and mocked muslim community and twice fir has been put against him.... but no body has the right to touch him.
this is the weakness of our district leaders. Mr. Ramanath Rai during his election keep on telling that this is the election between me and Bhatta.... I will arrest him when I won the election.... But even after becoming minister .. he is mum.
These are the reason muslim wants to against congress even though they don't mind bjp's win. A known enemy is better than
the the friend who always stabs behind.
Dear SDPI fools!
I am one of the millions of Indians who were disappointed by Congress. But I am not among those uneducated and senseless fools who worsen the woes of Muslim community through petty politics.
One of the beauty of politics in India is that all secular and non communal parties create miracles within a short period after formation. For example: Congress, AAP, Janata Dal.
Dear Fools
There is a major similarity between BJP and SDPI. Both depend on less educated people. Both faced defeats in their initial stage. But BJP strengthened itself by taking up mandir-masjid issue and spreading hatred. But SDPI can’t do that. You know why? Indian Muslims are not fools. They cannot be fooled in the name of Mandir-Masjid.
Dear Fools
We don’t blame any major secular parties for division secular of votes. We blame only those whose intention is to satisfy their unholy desires by defeating others. SDPI is a cancer in Muslim society. We need to remove it to protect Muslim society.
Dear Nareandra kodi,
Where is the place where sdpi did not contest in election, bjp won there, who support congress there?
We saw Many Election before when Both Congress & JDS so called secular party fielded in election but nobody blamed JDS or Congress for dividing secular votes but when SDPI fielded candidates in election many people are blaming SDPI for dividing secular votes
Whether SDPI Directly or Indirectly involved with BJP or not its secondary but the truth is vote is divided. And the benefit is for BJP. Rather sit with your Leaders and take suitable action which is good for the Society as well as country.Let us Keep away the so called Communal group out the Context. Accept the Truth and Choose the Best..
hehehehehehe.... yes yes we sdpi are coming.. u t khader bhakths we can understand your pain.. but dont forget only 3 zp seats sdpi wat happened in 33 seats.. how did congress lose there..?? dont become like times now or arnab goswami.. check the facts why riyaz got 4000+ votes in first attempt
