Udupi:  MP Sadanand Gowda invites Minorities to join BJP
Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi (SP)

Udupi, Sep 9: Member of parliament from Udupi - Chikmagalur constituency, and state BJP president, D V Sadanand Gowda, requested the Muslims and the Christians to join the mainstream by joining hands with the BJP in the party’s efforts to develop the nation.

Speaking after inaugurating a drive to admit people belonging to the minority communities as members of the BJP at the district BJP office here on Monday September 7, Gowda accused the Congress Party, which has ruled the country the longest so far, of treating the minorities as mere vote bank. Instead of concentrating on achieving the social and academic development of Muslims, the Congress Party has always aimed at turning the minorities against the BJP for reaping political gains. Treating all the religions equally is one of the five principles adopted by the BJP. “We treat all the citizens of the country as the children of Mother India,” he stated.

State Haj Committee member and president of Udupi block BJP Minority Morcha, M Saleem Ambagilu, conducted the membership registration process. MLA K Raghupati Bhat, district Minority Morcha president Gerald Fernandes, leaders Katpady Shankar Poojary, K Udaykumar Shetty and others were present.

Morcha general secretary Arif Kallotte welcomed. Saiduddin Angaragundi proposed vote of thanks.

    ''Come into my parlour, said the spider to the fly''! What he did not say was "so that i can molest, KILL, harrass, assault you, burn your places of worship, disturb your religious worship and even beat up your religious women! No thank you Mr. Gowda, set your house in order, tighten the leash on your goons and show us that your is a party ''WITH A DIFFERENCE'', a party that considers all Indians worthy of protection and security.

    "We treat every citizen of our country as the children of mother India" DVS''s oratory might have been appreciated by his chamcha''s with great aplause. So WHERE WERE YOU when recently one of the child of mother India was sacked from the college, for wearing a head scarf? Even your brother Nalin never bothered to intervene, because you do not have control over your Karya Kartha''s, the safron brigade, who terorise the minorities.

    Whenever election approaches you talk about RAM JANM BHOOMI or KRISHNA JANMA BHOOMI or BRIHATH HINDU RASTRA.Can you show us winning election without the help of Bhagavath Flag? You condemn the minorities sentiments and divide the people on basis of Religion.We are better off without BJP dear DVS.Kindly do not fool us.

    Chriatians people are always on the mainstream. If BJP needs help to be on the mainstream please ask help from our people and we will give you. We really are much better in  shape then you guys think. Even communal problems are created by some are not making us weak. We are quite capable of fighting back but we are peace loving people and share peace with our enemies so that we are a living example of Jesus for our enemiies in the symbol of love.

    BJP cannot accommodate Muslims because their RSS ideology is to make the whole India a Hindutva nation where all the minorities have to remain enslaved to them. At first RSS should bring a change in their ideology & let them consider that all Indians are its citizen irrespective of religion, region and caste. Divide and Rule was the creation of British in the 17th Century & now we are in 21st Century & that will not work. Hence RSS should change for good.

    Gowda should first see why BJP has become a laughing stock at the center. Christians and Muslims are part of the mainstream itself..Who are these guys to tell us how to come to the mainstream.

    Before inviting the minorities to join the party , let the party government take action against those fundamentalists who attacked the minorities recently in the state, bring them to the book, give justice and assurance of safety/security feeling to minority. When the minorities are not in a position to trust the party, which did not even condmen these attackers, how can they expect them to join the party

    Democratic Indians have all the rights to join or the political parties which they want, irresepective of their religion. But its very funny just in yesterdays home page there was a report of Ishrat in Gujarat and so many other muslim brothers and sisters. i feel sorry for muslim brothers and sisters on the photo with Gowda. Minorities Joining BJP is like "Out of pan into the Fire".

    I will appreciate the intiative by DVS to embrace minority communities in to the party fold. But other fundamental saffron brigades are discouraging minorities in every field. Its really confusing the ordinary inncoent citizens of this region.
