BA Mohidin has universal personality: Prof KE Radhakrishna
Second edition of ‘Nannolagina Naanu’ book released in Bengaluru
Bengaluru, September 10: “BA Mohidin was a modern age Sufi saint. He was taking much effort to complete the work he accepted. Without confining his personality within himself, he has universal personality”, said educationist and writer Prof KE Radhakrishna.
Speaking at the release of the second edition of the ‘Nannolagina Naanu’, an autobiography of BA Mohindi, narrated by Muhammad Kulai and BA Muhammad Ali, at a programme organized by the Beary’s Welfare Association at a private hotel here on Monday, he said that the characters in the book would haunt the readers. One could observe the compassion in it. Communal harmony and brotherhood in the Dakshina Kannada district is visible in the book. Nowadays, the society is in glitter. But the society should emulate the ideology of BA Mohidin, he said.
Right from his young age, Mohidin was opposing the hatredness.”I have studied in Christian school. But they never called me for prayer. Instead, they asked us to do horticulture work. Both are same”, he said in his autobiography. He has rejected the power and arrogance, he said.
Journalist BM Hanief said that in coastal region, BM Idinabba and BA Mohidin were two great leaders. Mohidin has never declared that he has done good things or achieved a great thing. But he lived his life in a simple way and thus, he became a model to others, he said.
MLC BM Farooq presided over the programme in which, JDS national spokesperson Tanveer Ahmed, Mohidin’s younger son Mushtaq and others were present.
Communal harmony disturbed in DK
Dakshina Kannada district was known for communal harmony. But because of one person, the district was losing its credit, said Prof KE Radhakrishna.
“I could still remember the communal harmony I have seen during my childhood days. Mohidin has even shared those moments in the book. In any programmes at our home, the Beary family members used to come to our home and participate in all activities and celebrations. In the same way, we used to go to their programmes. But now, such a beautiful relationship and society is destroyed for the gains of a few”, he said.

Will let my work talk: Raghav Chadha in Instagram post amid rift with AAP
New Delhi (PTI): Sidelined AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on Friday shared on Instagram a video titled "Voice Raised Price Paid", a compilation of clips of him raising various issues in Parliament, amid his ongoing rift with his party.
"With due respect, to those who are questioning my parliamentary performance, I will let my work do the talking," he said in the post.
The AAP on April 2 removed Chadha as its deputy leader in the Rajya Sabha and has accused him of shying away from raising his voice against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Centre in Parliament and instead engaging in "soft PR".
A combative Chadha has dismissed the party's allegations as "lies" and said that he went to Parliament to raise people's issues and not to create ruckus.
Since his removal as the AAP's deputy leader in the Upper House, Chadha has shared several videos and posts on social media, making it clear that he will not take his demotion lying down.
