Mangaluru, December 3: Ihsan Karnataka Foundation president NKM Shafi Saadi inaugurated the ‘Milad Sneha Sangama’ programme organized at the ‘Connect-2018 Community Convention’, to mark the Karnataka Cultural Foundation’s 5th anniversary at the Nehru Stadium here on Monday.

Speaking on the occasion, he said that there should not be bloodshed in the name of temples and masjids. The Muslim community would accept the Supreme Court verdict on Babri Masjid and Ram Mandir construction. Action should be taken against those who oppose the verdict. There would be no use from bandhs and disputing statements. Ram Mandir should be constructed under the Constitutional framework. After the demolition of the Babri Masjid in 1992, then prime minister PV Narasimha Rao had constituted a committee which spent Rs 18 crore in eight years to submit its report, in which there was no reference of the idol of Lord Sri Rama, he said.

Even the Allahabad High Court had given a verdict dividing the land into three parts. In that verdict, it had not mentioned about the idols of Lord Sri Rama. The Muslim community would welcome the Supreme Court verdict, he said.  

Karnataka Hajj Samiti member and SSF national committee general secretary KM Abubakar Siddique Montugoli spoke on the occasion, while SYS state president GM Mohammad Kamil Saqafi presided over it.

SYS state vice president DK Umar Saqafi Kambalabettu, State SYS treasurer Yusuf Haji Uppalli, State SYS vice president Hyder Ali Kamil Nizami Shivamogga, SYS state secretary Abdul Haqeem Kodlipet, SYS secretary Usman Abdullah Kodagu, Team Hubburasool Conference convener Ashraf Saadi Malluru, SYS district president PM Usman Saadi Pattori, SYS Mangaluru leader CH Muhammed Ali Saqafi Ashariyya and others were present on the occasion.

New Delhi: The Congress party has stood by Pawan Khera, the Chairman of the party’s Media and Publicity Department, expressing confidence that regardless of hurdles like politics of threat and intimidation, justice would emerge victorious.

Khera was denied anticipatory bail by the Gauhati High Court on Friday in the case filed against him by Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's wife Riniki Bhuyan Sarma for alleging that she possessed not only multiple passports but also undisclosed properties abroad.

Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has said in a post in Hindi on his ‘X’ account, “The entire Indian National Congress stands in solidarity with Pawan Khera, the Chairman of its Media and Publicity Department. The process to challenge the Gauhati High Court’s decision in the Supreme Court is underway.” In the post, which he put up on Friday, Ramesh has added, “We are confident that justice will prevail over the politics of threats, intimidation, and harassment.”

Bhuyan Sarma has lodged also an FIR seeking legal action against Pawan Khera for his allegations that she possesses passports of three countries and owns a company in the US, which had invested Rs. 50,000 crores. She has filed criminal cases against the Congress leader at the Guwahati Crime Branch Police Station under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
