We won’t get Achhe Din till Ram Mandir is built: Sohan Singh Solanki
Janaagraha convention at Nehru Maidan
Mangaluru, November 25: “Till Rama Mandir is built, we would not have Achhe Din”, said Vishwa Hindu Parishad senior leader Sohan Singh Solanki.
Addressing the Janaagraha convention organized by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal at Nehru Maidan here on Sunday, he said that Ram Mandir construction was not possible due to the people of Babar mindset in the country. Even the Supreme Court also has not respected the feelings of crores of Hindus.
“We have our own government at the centre. But also the Ram Mandir is not yet constructed. But Tipu Jayanti is being celebrated in Karnataka. The people of Karnataka should celebrate Krishnadevaraya Jayanthi instead of Tipu Jayanti. Babar, Akbar were misfortune of this country. Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Rana Pratap Simha were the symbol of self-esteem of the country”, he said.
Those who were ruling the country in the name of Babri Masjid have lost the power. As the court has not allowed the Hindus to construct Ram Mandir, the central government should find ways to construct the Mandir. Last time, Ashok Singhal led the fight for constructing the Ram Mandir and this time, Pejawar swamiji would lead the fight, Solanki said.
MPs asked to bring in a law to build Ram Mandir
Lok Sabha Member Nalin Kumar Kateel was given a memorandum at the VHP meeting to construct Ram Mandir at Ayodhya.
After receiving the memorandum, Kateel said that Ram Mandir should be constructed at Ayodhya. He has not forgotten that he was elected as the MP with the responsibility of constructing the Ram Mandir. He would raise the issue in the Winter Session, he promised.
Sri Gurudevananda of Odiyur, Rajashekarananda Swamiji of Vajradehi Mutt, Sri Mahabala of Kaniyur, Muktananda Vidyananda Shri of Karinje Kshetra, VHP South Karnataka president Prof MB Puranik, Division head N Seetaram, Assistant secretary Krishnamurthy, Bajrang Dal regional coconvener Muralikrishna Hamsatadka, VHP Mangaluru division secretary Sharan Pumpwell, Mangaluru VHP president Jagadish Shenava, Working president Gopal Kuttal, Krishna Prasanna Puttur, Durga Vahini convener Vidya Mallya and others were present.

Cabinet reshuffle is CM's prerogative in consultation with Cong high command: G Parameshwara
Bengaluru(PTI): Amid speculation that a cabinet reshuffle was on the cards, Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara on Wednesday said it is the prerogative of the Chief Minister and he would take a decision in consultation with the state Congress President and the high command.
Deputy CM and state Congress chief D K Shivakumar's statement on Tuesday indicating the possibility of a cabinet reshuffle in the days ahead, noting that few Ministers have been given a "message" about their term, has further fueled the speculations about the rejig.
"I don't know about it. Cabinet reshuffle is the Chief Minister's prerogative. He will consult the Pradesh Congress Committee President and go about it, this has been the practice. I don't know what decisions they make. It has to be done in consultation with the high command," Parameshwara told reporters.
To a question on Shivakumar's statement, he said, "He (Shivakumar) is the party state President, I don't know what messages he has sent (to some Ministers)."
Speculations are rife about a cabinet reshuffle and evaluation of the performance of the Ministers ever since the Lok Sabha poll results. There has also been demand from a section of MLAs, who are Ministerial aspirants, to be inducted into the cabinet. Some have openly expressed their wish to become Ministers.
To a question on a seer's comments that the voting rights of Muslims should be revoked, the Home Minister said, making remarks contrary to the Constitution is not right, and no one should speak or go against it.
"Probably he (seer) has not properly seen the principles of the Constitution and the rights and opportunities provided in it for every community and religion. It is clear in the Constitution," he said.
Asked about Congress MLA H R Gaviyappa publicly asking the CM to drop at least two of the five ‘guarantee’ schemes to provide money for development works, the state Home Minister said, "Any legislator asking for funds to his constituency is not wrong, so Gaviyappa is not wrong in asking for funds for his constituency."
"But unfortunately he has expressed his personal opinion regarding the guarantee schemes. That has been taken by the party and the government. We had promised the people of the state that we will full the promises, so we are implementing them. We cannot go back on that," he added.
Deputy CM Shivakumar had on Tuesday said he would issue a showcause notice to Gaviyappa and warned party leaders against making such statements regarding guarantee schemes.
Responding to a question on an Assamese girl found murdered at a serviced apartment in east Bengaluru, Parameshwra said such incidents in a way bring bad name to the city.
"It (alleged murder) is on very personal grounds. Both of them (suspect and victim) knew each other and were in love. They had stayed in a hotel room and he has stabbed her there. Both of them are outsiders. She is from Assam and he is from Kerala. Police keep watch on such things, but when such incidents occur, it in a way brings a bad name to the city," he said.
Asked about the suicide of a woman, who is a suspect in the alleged scam in Karnataka Bhovi Development Corporation, the Minister said investigation is on, can't say anything further until the probe is over.
On the protest by prisoners against the jail authorities at Kalaburagi central prison, alleging lack of facilities there, Parameshwara said he will speak to DG (Director General) Prisons about it.
"Already we have reviewed all the jails. If there are any necessities there it will be fulfilled. I will give instructions to the DG," he said.
