Miscreant hoists saffron flag in restricted place atop Baba Budengiri: Video goes viral
It's not restricted place: SP
Chikmagaluru, December 25: A person who had come to have darshan of Datta Padukas during Datta Jayanthi programme organised by the District Administration at Bababudangiri in the district on Saturday, hoisted a saffron flag at a place identified as restricted place on the premises of Bababudengiri and video of which has now gone viral.
The Datta Jayanthi programme was held peacefully on Saturday. But in the evening, a person said to be transgender wearing white churidar, hoisted the saffron flag in the restricted place at Bababudengiri. At this time, devotees in saffron attires celebrated in jubilation.
These scenes were recorded in a mobile and posted in social media. As the video has gone viral in social media, people expressed their anger against the act.
Sangha Pariwar people have been trying to disturb peace in the district. The district administration has taken all precautionary measures during Datta Jayanthi. Upset over this, Sangh Pariwar people have tried to disturb the peace through their people.
During Datta Jayanthi programme, a devotee hoisted the saffron flag on the premises of Datta Peetha. But this place is not a restricted place. It's a common issue that miscreants hoist flags on the premises. As the police have provided tight police security in the restricted place, no untoward incidents were reported. Datta Jayanthi programme was peaceful. A transgender from North Karnataka has done this. Since the place is not a restricted place, the police have registered any case against it.

Stop atrocities on Hindus immediately, release ISKCON monk from jail: RSS to Bangladesh interim govt
New Delhi (PTI): The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Saturday appealed to the Bangladesh interim government to ensure the atrocities on the Hindus are stopped and ISKCON monk Chinmoy Krishna Das is released from jail immediately.
RSS general secretary Dattatreya Hosabale in a statement also appealed to the Indian government to continue its efforts to stop the atrocities on the Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh and take necessary steps to build global opinion in its support "as soon as possible".
"The attacks, murders, looting, arson as well as inhuman atrocities by Islamic fundamentalists on Hindus, women and all other minorities in Bangladesh are extremely worrying and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh condemns this," he said.
Instead of stopping this, the present Bangladesh government and other agencies are only silent spectators, Hosabale said.
"Out of helplessness, a new phase of injustice and atrocities seems to be emerging against the Hindus of Bangladesh to suppress the voice raised by them in a democratic way for self-defense," the RSS general secretary said.
"It is unjust for the Bangladesh government to send ISKCON monk Chinmoy Krishna Das, who is leading the Hindus in such peaceful demonstrations, to jail," he added
Bangladesh Police earlier on Monday arrested International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari from the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport area in Dhaka while he was travelling to Chittagong.
"The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh appeals to the Bangladesh government to ensure that the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh stop immediately and release Shri Chinmoy Krishna Das from imprisonment," Hosabale said.
"The RSS also appeals to the Indian government to continue its efforts to stop the atrocities on Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh and take necessary steps as soon as possible to build global opinion in its support," he added.
At this crucial time, the RSS general secretary said, India and the global community and institutions should stand with the victims of Bangladesh and express their support, and demand that their respective governments make every possible effort to ensure that atrocities on the Hindus and other minorities are stopped in Bangladesh immediately.
This is necessary for world peace and brotherhood, he added.
