Mangaluru: Al Haj KS Muhammad Masood, the President of D.K. and Udupi District Muslim Central Committee, has called for the immediate arrest and prosecution of Prabhakar Bhatta.
Masood's statement comes in response to Bhat's abusive remarks against Muslim women made during the 'Sankeerthana Yatra' as part of Hanuman Jayanti celebrations in Srirangapatna taluk, Mandya district, on December 24.
Bhat's controversial comments praised the actions of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, particularly the criminalization of the practice of triple talaq. He claimed that Muslim women were granted "permanent husbands" by this legal intervention, alleging that prior to this, Muslim women did not have stable marriages.

Addressing the hijab ban issue in educational institutions, Bhat warned against withdrawing the ban and challenged Karnataka's Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, questioning his authority to lift the ban. Bhatta also issued threats and challenges to a Muslim student, Muskan Khan, who had defended wearing hijab in educational institutions earlier in the year.
The Mandya Police responded to these remarks by filing a case against Bhatta under sections 354, 295, 509, 506, 153(A), 295, 295(A), and 298 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) based on a complaint filed by social worker Najma Nazeer.

Beijing : Pizza Hut China has taken a bold step into culinary experimentation by introducing a limited-edition pizza topped with deep-fried bullfrog, a move that has garnered both curiosity and criticism online. The unconventional dish was first highlighted by global food trend expert David Henke, who shared a photo of the new menu item on X (formerly Twitter), noting the diverse protein preferences in different cultures.
The pizza, known as "Goblin Pizza," features a thick crust, red sauce, a layer of parsley, and a whole deep-fried bullfrog as the centerpiece. The frog's "eyes" are created with halved hard-boiled eggs, each topped with a black olive, making for a visually striking presentation. According to Korean news outlet Maeil Business Newspaper, the unusual offering is a collaboration with Dungeons and Dragons, inspired by a character from the game.
Details about the availability of this new creation are limited, with no specific information provided on Pizza Hut’s official website. However, the quirky menu item has already become a talking point on social media, drawing a mix of reactions ranging from shock to curiosity.
On Reddit, a photo of the pizza was shared, fueling further debate. Some users labeled the dish as “pure blasphemy,” while one user went so far as to say, “This pizza is a felony.” Another asked, “Why ruin a pizza like that?”
Not all feedback was negative; one commenter admitted that while the frog might be off-putting, they'd be more accepting if the pizza underneath was satisfactory. Another joked, "You can ribbet this right into the garbage."
Amidst the critique, there were voices of intrigue. One foodie defended the dish, saying, “Fried frog legs are so good! Maybe next time, shred the frog leg meat and add it to the pizza—that would be pretty good.”
