Interreligious rally to foster communal harmony
Mangaluru: "The harmony hidden in the heart should become inherent in everyone. Only then is it possible for peace and tranquillity to prevail in society," said Soluru Arya Ediga Mahasamsthana Seer Sri Vikhyatananda Swamiji. He was speaking at the 'Karavaliya Neladalli Souharda Sanchara', a campaign for communal harmony organised by the Karnataka State Sunni Yuvajana Sangha (SYS), in the city on Tuesday. "The feeling that we are all one should arise in everyone. Only then can humans be free from violence and anger. Whoever makes a mistake, we should not justify them for any reason. Instead, we should immediately distance ourselves. Along with that, we should also stay away from arrogance and pride," said the swamiji. "Prophet Muhammad was referred to as a 'precious gem' by Sri Narayana Guru. This is because the Prophet's actions and words were clear. However, today we are moving away from the Prophet's message. That should not happen; we should follow the path taught by the Prophet," he said. State Waqf Council vice-president Maulana Shafi Saadi, MLC Ivan D'Souza, and Mangalore Diocese PRO Roy Castelino spoke on the occasion. SYYS state president Basheer Saadi presided over the event. SYS state general secretary KM Aboobakker Siddiq delivered the keynote address. Ullal Dargah president and Harmony Rally Reception Committee president Haneef Haji Ullal was present. Despite the pouring rain, Hindus, Muslims, and Christians joined hands and marched in harmony from the Light House Hill to Clock Tower.

Campaign for harmony
Mangaluru: The Karnataka State Sunni Yuvajana Sangha (SYS) will organise 'Karavaliya Neladalli Souharda Sanchara', a campaign for communal harmony, at 15 places across Udupi and Dakshina Kannada from July 14 to 16. Addressing a press conference, SYS state general secretary KM Aboobakker Siddiq said that the campaign will begin in Kundapur in Udupi district at 8 am on Monday. "The recent developments in coastal Karnataka, which was once a land of peace and harmony, lead to apprehensions. Communal hatred, assault, and murders have become routine, and people have lost trust. The land, which is rich in agriculture, industry, fishing, education, and medical infrastructure, has been witnessing instances that lack humanity. Such instances have been creating rifts between human minds when people engage in bloodshed in the name of caste and religion. There is a need to put an end to these hate crimes," he said. To spread the message of peace and harmony, the SYS will organise the rally for harmony, which will cover Kundapur, Udupi, Karkala, Kaup, Padubidri (on July 14), Mulki, Surathkal, Mangaluru, Farangipete, BC Road, Kalladka (July 15), Puttur, Uppinangady, Kadaba, and Sullia (July 16). Padayatra and harmony meets involving leaders from all religions will be held in all centres, he added.
