Mangaluru, Oct 03: “Language researchers have warned that the languages spoken by less number of people around the world are at extinction. Such risks may arise if the western language is entirely adopted without giving respect to the mother tongue. Therefore, the Beary language’s extinction or survival is in the hands of the Beary community; opined M.B Abdurrahman, Karnataka Beary Sahitya Academy's first term president.
He was speaking after inaugurating the Beary Bhasha Dinacharane programme, organized by the Karnataka Beary Sahitya Academy at the town hall here on Wednesday.
“Initially, there was no idea that the government would announce the academy. Today, the Academy is doing well. But the survival or the development of the Beary language is not possible only through the Academy.”
“Rather, it is possible if all the Beary's respect their mother tongue by speaking it and indulging in literary activities. Otherwise, the Beary Language will come under threats. Therefore, we should know that the extinction and the survival of the Beary language are in our hands, M.B Abdurrahman added.
Program convener Basheer Baikampady welcomed the gathering. Tanseef B.M presented the vote of thanks, while Hussain Katipalla compered the programme.
Musliṁ lēkhakara saṅgha(MLS) President Umar U.H delivered a talk on the topic 'Beary Bhāṣhe Mattu Sāhitya Indu-Ninne-Nāḷe’.
The Academy chairman Karambar Muhammad released the CD of 'Abba' Beary movie songs. The trailer of the movie was also screened during the programme. The cultural program of the Beary songs by Abdusammad Katipalla was also conducted.

New Delhi (PTI): Commuters faced a harrowing morning on Monday as a massive traffic jam brought vehicular movement to a near standstill at the Delhi-Noida border following a protest by a labour union demanding a salary hike.
The protest, which began early in the day, led to congestion on key arterial roads connecting Delhi and Noida, including NH 9, severely disrupting the office rush hour.
Long queues of vehicles were seen stretching for several kilometres, with many commuters stranded for hours.
A police source said that members of the labour union from Uttar Pradesh gathered near the border area were staging a demonstration, blocking portions of the road and slowing down traffic movement.
"Personnel from the Delhi Police and Noida Police were deployed to manage the situation and divert traffic, but the heavy volume of vehicles compounded the chaos," the source said.
Frustrated commuters took to social media platform X, urging authorities to intervene and clear the roads. Many complained of being stuck in unmoving traffic despite starting early to avoid peak-hour congestion.
An employee of a private company said she left her home at around 7:30 am but remained stuck in traffic for over an hour without any significant movement.
"There is no movement at all. People are getting down from vehicles and trying to figure out what's happening ahead," she said.
Authorities said efforts were underway to clear the congestion and restore smooth traffic flow as soon as possible.
