February 26, 2011

Mangalore, February 26: Akhila Bharatha Beary Parishath has submitted a memorandum to the Chief Census Officers of New Delhi and Bangalore through the Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner who is also Chief District Census Officer requesting to include the names and details of Indian citizens who are working in foreign countries, in the census of 2011.

The Parishat also demanded to make provision for providing details of census of each person and also to allow filing of objections with regard to the inaccurate data accumulation.

The delegation led by President of Parishat Abdul Majeed Suralpady, BA Muhammad Haneef, Working President, Muhammad Kunjathbail, General Secretary submitted the memo to Additional Deputy Commissioner S Prabhakar Sharma.

In the memorandum, the Parishath informed that the persons involved in census work are not taking any details of Indian citizens who work abroad or if they have gone for short period for any reason.

Though the Muslims and Christians are Indian citizens and employed in foreign countries, census enumerators did not include their names and details. “This has caused injustice to the minority communities and it would affect the citizenship, identity matter, voting rights and other facilities,” the Parishat noted.

Muhammad Kunjathbail, General Secretary, CM Musthafa, Nazeer Bajal and FA Khader were present.

Mysuru: More than 50 people have been arrested in connection with the riots between two groups of different faiths, at Nagamangala town, Mandya district, over the Ganesha idol procession, on Wednesday night.

High drama prevailed in front of the Nagamangala town police station on Thursday morning, with women belonging to both Hindu and Muslim communities staging a protest against the arrest of their family members and demanding their release.

The two groups started arguing over the Ganesha idol procession on the Mysuru-Nagamangala road, near a 'dargah'. This soon turned violent with stone being pelted. Reports said that around 25 shops were also set on fire.

Several vehicles were damaged and torched by the mob. However, police intervened and brought the situation under control, deploying additional police forces.
