Bengaluru: On January 22, 2024, the dedication day of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, a Facebook/Twitter post shared by senior IPS officer, IGP Rupa Moudgil of Karnataka has gone viral.
“I can't forget this particular incident--during Ram Janmabhoomi struggle,sometime in Dec 1991,while I was in school,my town Davanagere witnessed golibar/police firing in which a youth Prakash Ninganna(if I remember correctly) lost his life. This news was carried only on BBC radio those times. Rooted in such raw and pure sacrifices of many, Lord Ram temple that is a reality today is built not just on faith, emotions but on strong legal grounds and is prashnateet/ unquestionable. Not able to comprehend why a few still have issues." she posted on Twitter.

Kiran Rajanahalli, who responded to this post, said, "Yes, Roopa, you said it. I too remember those days. Rama temple built on its own land with all legal grounds. People have been patiently waiting for many years to get this right legally."
Srinivasa Kulkarni said, “Very true… during 1990, in Davanagere Hindus death rate was increase day by day, but media was hidden all true information. As per local news total death toll was 17 to 23. Actual is more than 50+,” he commented.
Ashish Mukherjee says, “Dislike of the dispensation or dislike of what the temple stands for. Yes, there are many such people. Many people even question SC on every matter nowadays, just because SC judgments do not align with their thinking. Very unfortunate. “
K Sudhakar Patnaik says, “I too remember and findout my old files to go through the same incident and some facts finding reports. Infact i also followed to cover the story on Murali Manohar Joshi to jeypore during his Rathyatra in Koraput district of Odisha. Had no pas to attend his press meet. Mr Syma Sundar hamsada IPS was our Sp Koraput asked me to attend the press meet. Do you contest in general elections with BJP ticket or what Ms Roopa Modigil ji”
Along with this, Rupa Moudgil, an IPS officer of Karnataka cadre, also shared another post.
This post is about Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speech on Pran Pratishta day. “In the energising speech of h'ble PM .@narendramodi ji wherein each phrase and sentence was impregnated with meaning n significance,one that impacted me the most is the perspective to Jatayu incident...Jatayu who willingly fought Ravana,knowing the latter's might. PM exhorting everyone to follow example of Jatayu to voluntarily act and shed the feeling of helplessness,to do one's duty fighting adharma/injustice is so motivating to even make the dead come alive,act, immerse in nation building,” she posted.
Recently, a senior IAS officer from Maharashtra shared in her Facebook post that after the incident of December 6, 1992 (Babri Masjid demolition), she celebrated by eating peda and chanting Jai Shriram.
Although there are clear rules that the officers should be impartial and they should not be seen to be in favor of any religion, the fact that IAS and IPS officers are openly making statements in favor of one religion has caused dissatisfaction among the people.

WB BJP chief urges state admin to act against violence perpetrators irrespective of party colours
Kolkata (PTI): A day after the BJP's sweeping victory in the West Bengal assembly polls, state party president Samik Bhattacharya on Tuesday urged the administration to act firmly against perpetrators of post-poll violence irrespective of political affiliation.
Addressing reporters after a meeting of the party's top leadership at its Bidhannagar office, Bhattacharya said strict action must be taken against those indulging in violence and warned that BJP workers found involved in such activities would be expelled from the party.
"Post-poll violence would not be tolerated in any form. If anyone from our party is found involved, we will be compelled to remove them," he said.
The BJP leader also appealed to Chief Secretary Dushyant Nariala to ensure prompt administrative intervention wherever incidents of violence are reported.
"I would like to urge the administration to take necessary action wherever such incidents occur. This is precisely why the people of West Bengal have chosen the BJP," he said.
Bhattacharya thanked the electorate for the party's emphatic mandate and expressed gratitude to migrant workers who returned to the state to cast their votes despite logistical challenges.
According to party sources, a high-level meeting was held at the BJP's Bidhannagar office on Tuesday, attended by central observers and senior state leaders, to discuss measures to prevent violence and maintain law and order in the post-result scenario.
The discussions also focused on ensuring that there is no repeat of the violence reported after the 2021 assembly elections, when the BJP had accused the ruling Trinamool Congress of targeting its workers.
The BJP has secured 207 of the 293 seats where polls were held, securing a two-thirds majority and paving the way for its first government in West Bengal. The Trinamool Congress has won 80 seats.
Bhattacharya also appealed to party workers to maintain restraint and not let the victory celebrations turn disruptive.
"I urge our workers to remain peaceful, stay happy, and fulfil the responsibilities given by the party. Do not hurt anyone in the name of celebration, and do not hurt anyone's sentiments," he said.
