Vijayapura, Nov 6: Members of various Muslim organisations staged a protest under the banner of Muslim Muttahida Council here on Saturday to express their opposition to the attempt by the Union government to impose a Uniform Civil Code.

The protesters said that Muslims would not tolerate government interference in the Shariah. Islamic cleric and scholar, Sayed Tanvirpeeran Hashmi, said that no attempt was made to interfere in the Shariah even during the British rule.

“The BJP government at the Centre is trying to bring in a common law for all, which is impossible. The Constitution gives the right and freedom to every Indian to follow the religion of his/her choice and following Sharia is very much part of Islam. Thus, in no case the government can withdraw this fundamental right,” Mr. Hashmi said.

He said that such an attempt will only destabilise the peace and harmony of the country. On the issue of triple talaq, he said that the matter has not been discussed clearly in the light of the Quran, and people are making absurd statements without studying the talaq system.

Later, a group of women presented a memorandum to the President of India through the district administration. Chief Imam of Jama Masjid, Mohammed Yusuf Kazi and others were present.

Mr. Hashmi said that while a large number of people are suffering from hunger, Mr. Modi proposes Yoga.

“While people have no money, Mr. Modi wants them to open bank accounts. When the poor need houses, he wants them to get toilets constructed...people in rural areas still have no electricity, but the PM talks of digital India and when minds of several Indians are filled with hatred and enmity, he launches Swachh Bharat. It seems that his priorities are misplaced,” he said.

It will be better to know Divine law and verify yourself rather than blindly following the hatemongers without verifying the logic and reason.

Mangaluru, Dec 15: Educational institutions in Mangaluru that rely on the popular Mangala Stadium for their annual sports events are bracing for an inconvenience as the city's key sporting venue is set to close its gates for a significant upgrade. The stadium is expected to be unavailable for approximately two months starting from January 15, 2026.

The closure is necessitated by a proposed overhaul of the stadium's facilities, with a special focus on upgrading the synthetic track. Pradeep Dsouza, Assistant Director of the District of Youth Empowerment and Sports (DYES), Dakshina Kannada, confirmed the development.

"Experts have visited the stadium, conducted a thorough inspection, and have given the go-ahead for a complete makeover," Dsouza stated. "Funds have been allocated for the project, and we are currently awaiting the final green signal from state officials to commence the work. We anticipate that the work will likely begin in the second week of January. Consequently, we have stopped renting out the stadium to colleges and other organizations in preparation for the upgrade."

The timing presents a logistical challenge for colleges, as many schools have already concluded their sports meets.

"Colleges will now be organizing their events and will need to find alternative locations to host their sports meets," Dsouza added. He suggested a few potential venues, including the Dakshina Kannada police ground, University College grounds, Panambur grounds, Swaraj Maidan in Moodbidri, and the Mangalore University sports grounds in Konaje.

However, many institutions note that finding a comparable venue will be difficult. While the DK police ground and University College grounds are closer to the city center, they do not possess the extensive facilities and infrastructure offered by Mangala Stadium.

Dr. P Dayananda Pai - P Satisha Govt First Grade College, Carstreet, is one such institution dependent on the stadium. Principal Jayakar Bhandary expressed hope for a swift completion of the work. "We expect the work to be completed at the earliest. If not, we will be forced to look for other venues to host the sports day for our students," Bhandary said, highlighting the pressing need for the city's main sporting facility.
