Mangalore, Nov 30: Ulamas and Umaras, who play a vital role in the development of the community, have been asked to act responsibly.

Udupi, Hasan, Chikmagalur and Dakshina Kannada Samyukta Jamath Khazi P M Ibrahim Musliar Bekal addressing the'Jamat representatives' convention' in Mangalore on Saturday said that the society will only benefit from wise Ulama and Umara.

“The Ulamas and the Umaras are respected and revered in the Muslim community. If these two bodies tread the wrong path then it will be detrimental to the community. Qazis, Madaris, Khateebs, Imams, Sadar, Muallim and others have to understand their responsibilities and duties and work towards awakening spiritual awareness among the people,” he said adding that it is very natural to have people affiliated to different political parties or views in one Jamath, but what is important is to see to it that differences between them do not cause problems. Efforts should be made to unite them under religious umbrella.

The Khazi said that the Masjids and Madarasas are in the clutches of Administrative Committees. In this connection he said that there should be no room for groupism.

He further said that arrangements must be made to conduct classes for women, youth and elderly separately.

Yenepoya University Chancellor Y Adbullah Kunhi said that in every Church there is a system of documenting the details of every family. He said that such a system must be started even in the Masjids.

“For this, Jamath survey must be conducted every year,” he said.

KMJC President Sayyed Fazal Koyamma Thangal Madani Al Bhukari presided over the programme.

Sunni Co-ordination Committee State President P M Abbas Musliar Manjanadi offered'dua'.

SSF All India Committee vice-president M S M Abdurashid Zaini Kamil and KMJC State general secretary Abusufian H I Ibrahim Madani spoke on'Jamath fortification'

MLA Moideen Bava, SYS State general secretary S P Hamza Sakafi, Islamic Cultural Centre general secretary B M Mumtaz Ali among others were present.

Mangaluru: Chaos erupted at Mangaluru International Airport (MIA) after IndiGo flight 6E 5150, bound for Mumbai, was repeatedly delayed and ultimately cancelled, leaving around 100 passengers stranded overnight. The incident highlights the ongoing country-wide operational disruptions affecting the airline, largely due to the implementation of new Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) norms for crew.

The flight was initially scheduled for 9:25 PM on Tuesday but was first postponed to 11:40 PM, then midnight, before being cancelled around 3:00 AM. Passengers expressed frustration over last-minute communication and the lack of clarity, with elderly and ailing travellers particularly affected. “Though the airline arranged food, there was no proper communication, leaving us confused,” said one family member.

An IndiGo executive at MIA cited the FDTL rules, designed to prevent pilot fatigue by limiting crew working hours, as the cause of the cancellation. While alternative arrangements, including hotel stays, were offered, about 100 passengers chose to remain at the airport, creating tension. A replacement flight was arranged but also faced delays due to the same constraints, finally departing for Mumbai around 1:45 PM on Wednesday. Passengers either flew, requested refunds, or postponed their travel.

The Mangaluru delay is part of a broader crisis for IndiGo. The airline has been forced to make “calibrated schedule adjustments”—a euphemism for widespread cancellations and delays—after stricter FDTL norms came into effect on November 1.

While an IndiGo spokesperson acknowledged unavoidable flight disruptions due to technology issues, operational requirements, and the updated crew rostering rules, the DGCA has intervened, summoning senior airline officials to explain the chaos and outline corrective measures.

The ripple effect has been felt across the country, with major hubs like Bengaluru and Mumbai reporting numerous cancellations. The Mangaluru incident underscores the systemic operational strain currently confronting India’s largest carrier, leaving passengers nationwide grappling with uncertainty and delays.

Udupi: A 40-year-old NRI from Udupi has reportedly lost more than Rs 12.25 lakh in an online investment scam operated through Telegram.

According to a complaint filed at the CEN police station, Leo Jerome Mendonsa, who has been working in Dubai for the past 15 years in computer accessories sales, maintains NRI accounts in Karkala and Nitte.

On November 12, 2025, Mendonsa was added to a Telegram group called Instaflow Earnings by unknown individuals. Users identified as Priya and Dipannita persuaded him to invest in “Revenue Tasks.” Initially, Mendonsa transferred Rs 1,100 multiple times and received the promised returns, encouraging him to continue.

On November 14, another user, Nishmitha Shetty, directed him to register on a website, digitvisionuoce.cc, and invest Rs 4 lakh in various shares. Over the next few days, he made multiple transfers totaling Rs 12,25,000, including Rs 50,000 via Google Pay, believing the scheme was legitimate.

After receiving the money, the alleged handlers stopped responding, and neither the invested amount nor the promised profits were returned.

The CEN police have registered a case under Sections 66(C) and 66(D) of the IT Act and Section 318(4) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), and investigations are ongoing.
