Mangaluru, Aug 16: Claiming that investigation agencies have found enough material to declare Popular Front of India as an anti-national terror outfit, Saffron leaders have urged the government to ban the organisation and invoke the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) against all its leaders.

Addressing a media conference called by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal in the city on Wednesday, VHP leader Jagadish Shenava, who is also an advocate, said that the arrest of a PFI leader in RSS worker Sharath Madiwala murder case has once again proved that the outfit believes in violence.

“This is not the first case. The accused in the murder cases of Bajrang Dal activist Prashant Poojary (Moodbidri), RSS worker Rudresh (Bengaluru), Raju (Mysuru) also belong to PFI,” he said said.

“It is high time that union and state governments ban PFI and other outfits that have connections with it. Those organisations are trying to divide the country and destroy harmony in the society. All the leaders of such organisations should be arrested,” he demanded.

VHP district secretary Gopal Kuthar and Bajrang Dal DK district convenor Bhujanga Kulal were present among others at the press meet.

Waqf land: Karnataka govt warns action against officials issuing eviction notice to farmers

November 10,2024

Bengaluru: The Karnataka government has warned that disciplinary action will be taken against those officials who change the land mutation records and serve eviction notices to farmers under the Waqf Act.

In a letter, the Revenue Department Principal Secretary Rajender Kumar Kataria reminded all regional commissioners and deputy commissioners in the districts that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah recently had a meeting following complaints about certain land properties being made in favour of the Karnataka Board of Waqfs.

In the meeting it was decided that all the directions issued previously by any government office or authority to change the mutation records has been withdrawn, the letter said.

It added that all the notices served in the past have also been withdrawn and no action should be taken against the farmers who are cultivating on the said land.

On the directions of the chief minister, the previous letters and the latest reminders served on November 7 to the farmers and land owners have been withdraw, the letter said.

"The officials who served reminder-2 despite the chief minister's direction will face appropriate disciplinary action," Kataria said in his letter.

He said he has been instructed to strictly implement the chief minister's direction.

The fresh direction was issued in poll-bound Karnataka, where bypolls to three crucial assembly segments are due on November 13.

Some farmers in Honwad village in Vijayapura in north Karnataka had alleged last month that they were served eviction notices as the Waqf Board claimed rights over it.

Subsequently, complaints started in pouring in from some other parts of the state.

BJP leader Tejasvi Surya on October 25 alleged that Karnataka Waqf Minister B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan directed the deputy commissioners and revenue officials to register lands in favour of the Waqf Board within 15 days, which resulted in confusion.

On Surya's request, the Chairman of the Joint Committee of Parliament on the Waqf (Amendment) Bill, Jagdambika Pal visited Karnataka on November 7 and met farmers in Hubballi, Vijayapura and Belagavi districts who had alleged that their lands were marked as Waqf properties.
