Mangaluru, July 20: Former chief minister Siddaramaiah said that more than being the Muslim leader, BA Mohidin had become a leader of the entire society because of his selfless attitude and honesty.
Speaking at the Nudinamana programme after the release of “Nannolagina Naanu”, an autobiography of former minister BA Mohidin, at the town hall here on Friday, Siddaramaiah said that he was honest in politics and lived a ideal life. Throughout his life, he had followed ideal life for which he was ready for any kind of sacrifice. He had never indulged in selfish politics. He had love and respect to all. Present day politicians should emulate his ideals in politics, he said.
He was against communalism and he used to tell that a movement like freedom movement was the need of the hour to check communalism in the society. He believed that if such a movement was not led, then there would not be any communal harmony in the society. Toiling for creating value-based politics in the society, he was encouraging the education of Muslim girls, he said.
There was no friend and foe in politics. Anybody could become anything. But BA Mohidin did not give up his ideology till his last breath. He was committed in politics. It would be a
real honour to him if his dreams were fulfilled, he said.
Speaker KR Ramesh Kumar said that Mohidin did not run behind power and he was not craved for it. But he used to get pain if his followers did not get power. Mohidin was beyond all criticism, allegations and other problems. If he was not the Speaker, he would have told all truths and irony, he added.
“Myself, Ramesh Kumar, Jayaprakash Hegde and BA Mohidin are
contemporary leaders. We were ready for any sacrifice for social values and
justice. Then Chief Minister JH Patel had alliance with the BJP, we resigned
from the cabinet and became neutral. Then truth, justice and honesty were
important for us. Now, such people are not eligible for politics. It was
clearly mentioned in the book ‘Nannolagina Naanu’”, said former minister MC
Nanaiah.
Minister UT Khader said that Mohidin was the companion of his
father UT Fareed and he was a guide to him. He used to get advice from Mohidin
whenever he confronted problems, Khader recalled.
MLC BM Farooq, Bearys Institution head Syed Muhammad Beary, leaders Ivan D’Souza, Yogish Bhat, Mayor Bhaskar Moily, CPM district secretary K Vasanth Achari, SDPI district president Attaullah Jokatte, Tabreez Jokatte spoke on Mohidin. Teekays organization head Umar Teekay, Yenepoya head Yenepoya Abdulla Kunhi, autobiography narrators Mohemmad Kulai and BA Muhammad Ali, Mohidin’s sons Abdul Qadir Mushtaq and Asif Masood, son-in-law Ahmed Sharief and Muhammad Nawaz were present.

Mumbai: Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav recently found himself in a controversy following a video he shared on Diwali. In the video, Yadav urged people not to burst firecrackers, citing concerns over noise and air pollution, as well as the distress caused to animals. However, this message sparked backlash on social media, where users criticised him, citing his past endorsement of non-vegetarian brands. Following the criticism, Yadav deleted the video and issued a public apology in a new post, expressing regret for any offence caused.
In his apology, Yadav wished everyone a happy Diwali and said, "Two days ago, I shared a video on my social media, which I have now deleted. I sincerely apologise if it hurt anyone's feelings. Celebrate Diwali joyfully, stay healthy, and be happy."
After Yadav’s apology, several people expressed disappointment, questioning whether environmental awareness is being unfairly targeted. Some users remarked on the trend of trolling those promoting environmental responsibility, while others criticised Yadav's decision to apologise, calling it an unwarranted concession to trolls. Noted journalist Dr. Mukesh Kumar commented on the situation, stating that Yadav should have stood by his message. Kumar argued that voices promoting positive change should not be silenced by what he termed as the influence of "uneducated masses manipulated by political agendas."
Amid the controversy, Rajpal Yadav returns to the big screen as Chhote Pandit in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, starring Kartik Aaryan. In an interview, Yadav mentioned that he would be portraying the character in a fresh style, adding a new dimension to the familiar role.
Rajpal Yadav's case clearly shows the condition of many Indian's today

इतनी जल्दी सरेंडर नहीं करना चाहिए था राजपाल जी। आपको अपने काम पर, अपने उद्देश्य पर यक़ीन होना चाहिए और उस पर डटे रहना चाहिए।

इस समय असभ्य, आशालीन और उपद्रवकारी लोगों की बाढ़ आई है। ये इतने बुद्धिहीन हैं कि आपके इतने महत्वपूर्ण संदेश को समझ ही नहीं पाए होंगे।
