This has now led to Christian groups in Kerala launching a campaign to identify hotels that are run by non-Muslims and have urged their flocks to visit only these hotels for ‘spit-free and mucus free food’.

Soldiers of Cross, a Christian group in its social media pages have shared lists of Kerala hotels that served “spit-free food” and it also includes hotels owned by Hindus or Christians in different districts across the state.  

A report published by The News Minute said both Hindu and Christian groups are nowleading the campaign against Muslim hotel-owners. 

The lists are being now circulated on Facebook, Whatsapp groups, and other social media platforms, and people are being told to eat at restaurants that follow higher standards of hygiene practices and aviod the spit food restorants and a campaign has been started to to create awareness to avoid hotels and restaurants with ‘halal’ signboards, which means the food that is being served there was most probebly spit upon. 

After the backlash, a concerted effort for damage control was launched by left-librals Muslim apologist by justifyin the act of ‘spitting’ by passing it off as blowing air onto food.

By

-

Yesterday, a Madurai-Tirupur bus that was on its way from Aarapaalayam to Kalavasal was blocked by a bunch of goons and was attacked for not giving way.

At that point, the bus driver who could not give way to the Innova car behind him because of the traffic on the road  was attacked and his hand chopped off.

In the video that has gone viral, a person from the Innova car can be seen stepping out of the car and moving towards the bus and attacking the man behind the wheel.

It was reported that the Innova driver had broken the bus window on the driver’s side and had spoken profanely to the bus driver. He then threw stones at the driver and had also attacked him vehemently with a metal rod. The bus driver Madhukrishnan was extremely bruised because of this and his hands were bleeding.

This incident instigated fear in the passengers of the bus. On learning about the attack, government bus drivers and operators rushed to the spot and tried to round up the occupants of the Innova car. But the driver of the car left the place swiftly. Subsequently, bus drivers protested against the attack.

On learning about the incident, SS Colony Police Officers rushed to the place of the incident, filed a complaint and had started finding the attackers. Through the CCTV footage of the area, they found the number plate of the Innova car and have identified the attacker, a man named Suresh and have arrested him.

The footage of the car driver attacking the bus driver has gone viral on social media. Tamil Nadu opposition leader and ex-Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami shared the video on his twitter with caption that reported the incident. He ended the tweet by saying, ” This incident shows that law and order has been completely disrupted in Tamil Nadu. What is the response of the Chief Minister in charge of the Police Department?” Check out the tweet here:

Jai Bhim Controversy: Audio file reveals Advocate Chandru bargained a deal of ₹5 lakhs with Anthony Samy

By
The Commune
-

Suriya’s Jai Bhim directed by T J Gnanavel has been subject to controversy for quite sometime now. Everyday, there is something new that comes up with regard to the movie. The controversy first began when the PMK party opposed the movie showing the Vanniyar community in negative light. While the names of most of the characters were kept the same, the name of the main perpetrator, the Sub-inspector who is responsible for Rajakannu’s custodial death, was changed from Anthony Samy to Guru. This, and the fact that in one scene the character is shown along with the Vanniyar’s sacred motif, the ‘Agni Pot’ has angered the members of the community.

Now, another major allegation has been placed on advocate Chandru who’s character is played by Suriya in the film. The allegation is that advocate Chandru along with a few members of the Communist party tried to bargain a deal with Anthony Samy for ₹5 lakhs, to ensure that he is not found guilty in the case. However, as Anthony Samy could not give more than ₹2 lakhs, they decided to trap him in the case entirely.  This expose has come from Anthony Samy’s very own nephew (Sister’s son).

In an audio clip published exclusively on Kathir News we can hear Anthony Samy’s nephew saying, “There’s a lot of difference between what is shown in the movie and what happened in reality. Chandru and all the communist party members bargained a deal for ₹5 lakhs. But, my uncle was merely a Sub-inspector at that time and he couldn’t afford it. None of this was shown in the movie. They should have portrayed either advocate Chandru or the members of the Communist party as villains.”

The point to be noted is that the movie reiterated that advocate Chandru did not even take a penny to handle the case for Rajakannu and only fought for justice. However, the reality of the movie that was ‘based on a true story’  is all coming out now. Check out the full audio file here:

-

The Mathala Kombu Vinayagar temple near Palayam in Erode district, Tamil Nadu and the perennially filled tank of the temple are highly revered and worshipped by the locals. Local Hindus, especially those who have adorned Sabarimala Mala take ablutions at the tank.

Yesterday, approximately 20 youth, allegedly belonging to a different religion,  have trespassed into the premises of the tank, and have consumed alcohol along with non-vegetarian food by occupying the area. This act has hurt the sentiments of devout devotees of the temple. A video of one of the young men speaking vulgarly at a local who questioned their actions, has gone viral on social media.

In the video, some of the men can be seen having long beard. One man can be heard calling another man named Ali. Another man mockingly asks the man to take video and adds that he can do nothing to them.

Kerala Islamic cleric says faithful will get large breasted women in Jannat, sparks outrage

By
The Commune
-

In the Communist state of Kerala that allowed Ed celebration that led to a spike in Covid-19 infection and death, a powerful and influential Islamic cleric E P Abubacker Qasimi said that the advantages of being in the Muslim Jannat are that the women will have big breasts and the faithful can swim in a river of alcohol.

Such misogynistic comment has now triggered massive controversy in Kerala because such speeches are usually given to Muslims who are about to wage Jihad.

If that was not enough, the influential cleric said that women in Allah’s Jannat didn’t urinate or excrete and would allow those in Jannat to lay on their laps and the size of a woman’s breast will be at the whim of the faithful as Allah would provide them with ladies of their choice.

But perhaps the most ridiculous and outrageous statement he made was when he said, “Women in Jannat didn’t have the ability to think,”.

Though alcohol is prohibited in Islam, Qasimi said that Allah has created a river of alcohol, and Muslims in Jannat are free to swim in it, and also drinking alcohol is not a sin as it is provided by Allah.

He then said that the faithful would never have to stand in line in Jannat to get beverages of his choice unlike outlets on earth.

During the height of the pandemic, the Kerala government led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan accused Hindu festivals of spreading the Covid virus and is yet to react to this misogynistic speech.

The speech is now being widely circulated on social media, the Kerala politicians are yet to react to this misogynistic speech because E P Abubacker Qasimi has basically called women objects of pleasure.

PM Modi to lay the foundation stone of Noida International Airport on November 25

By

Uttar Pradesh is poised to become the only state in India to have five international airports, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay the foundation stone of the Noida International Airport (NIA) in Jewar, Gautam Buddha Nagar, Uttar Pradesh on 25 November, 2021 at 1 PM.

The development of the airport is in line with the vision of the Prime Minister towards boosting connectivity and creating a future-ready aviation sector. A special focus of this grand vision has been on the state of Uttar Pradesh (UP) that is witnessing the development of multiple new international airports including the recently inaugurated Kushinagar airport and the under construction international airport at Ayodhya.

This airport will be the second international airport to come up in Delhi NCR. It will help decongest the IGI Airport. It is strategically located and will serve the people of cities including Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Aligarh, Agra, Faridabad and neighbouring areas.

The airport will be the logistics gateway of northern India. Due to its scale and capacity, the airport will be a gamechanger for UP. It will unleash the potential of UP to the world, and help establish the state on the global logistics map. For the first time, an airport in India has been conceptualised with an integrated multi modal cargo hub, with a focus on reducing the total cost and time for logistics. The dedicated cargo terminal will have a capacity of 20 lakh metric tonne, which will be expanded to 80 lakh metric tonne. Through facilitating seamless movement of industrial products, the airport will play a crucial role in helping the region attract huge investments, boost rapid industrial growth, and enable reach of local products to national and international markets. This will bring new opportunities for numerous enterprises, and also create tremendous employment opportunities.

The airport will develop a Ground Transportation Centre that will feature a multimodal transit hub, housing metro and high-speed rail stations, taxi, bus services and private parking. This will enable seamless connectivity of the airport with road, rail, and metro. Noida and Delhi will be connected to the airport through hassle free metro service. All major nearby roads and highways like the Yamuna Expressway, Western Peripheral Expressway, Eastern Peripheral Expressway, Delhi-Mumbai Expressway and others will be connected to the airport. The airport will also be linked to the planned Delhi-Varanasi High Speed Rail, enabling the journey between Delhi and airport in only 21 minutes.

The airport will also house a state-of-art MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Overhauling) Service. The design of the airport is focussed on low operating costs and seamless and fast transfer processes for passengers. The airport is introducing a swing aircraft stand concept, providing flexibility for airlines to operate an aircraft for both domestic and international flights from the same contact stand, without having to re-position the aircraft. This will ensure quick and efficient aircraft turnarounds at the airport, while ensuring a smooth and seamless passenger transfer process.

It will be India’s first net zero emissions airport. It has earmarked dedicated land to be developed as forest park using trees from the project site. NIA will preserve all native species and be nature positive throughout the development of the airport.

The development of the first phase of the airport is being done with a cost of over Rs 10,050 crore. Spread over more than 1300 hectares of land, the completed first phase of the airport will have a capacity to serve around 1.2 crore passengers a year and work on it is scheduled to be completed by 2024. It will be executed by the international bidder Zurich Airport International AG as concessionaire. The groundwork for the first phase regarding land acquisition and rehabilitation of the affected families has been completed.

Muslims who vandalized Hindu temple in Pakistan demand their fine be paid by Hindus

By
The Commune
-

One of the few Hindu temples that are still functioning in Pakistan was vandalized by a Muslim mob on December 2020, in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, the Hindus in that area are now being pressured by the Muslim Clerics to pay the fines on behalf of more than 100 people who actively took part in this attack.

The under-siege minority Hindu community in Pakistan is now under a lot of pressure by clerics and the majority Muslim population to pay fines on behalf as they have already paid fines for 11 key accused totalling Rs 30 lakh (around INR 12.5 lakh) for that attack that took place on 30 December.

As per news reports, thousands of men, led by Islamic religious clerics, arrived at the temple located in the village of Teri in Karak district of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa region and systematically began to rip apart the temple’s brick by brick and then set it on fire.

The temple was more than 100 years old and was built in 1919 and as per earlier reports the same temple was attacked in 1997 too but, after an order by Pakistan’s Supreme Court, it was renovated in 2015.

The temple even after the Supreme Court verdict has always remained under threat from extremist Muslims and this time the attack happened over suspicion that the temple management was ‘expanding’ the premises and the caretaker of the temple had built a room adjoining the temple to live in.

According to the police, the mob had gathered promising a ‘peaceful’ protest, but incendiary speeches evoked by clerics triggered them into vandalism and violence.

In a report published yesterday (22 November), Pakistan newspaper The Express Tribune has quoted “a Hindu leader” as saying that the Hindu community had to pay fines for 11 men including Jamait Ulemai-e-Islam Fazal (JUI-F) district Amir Maulana Mir Zaqeem, former district nazim Karak Rehmat Salam Khattak and Maulana Sharifullah.

Now all the 123 other accused are demanding that the Hindu community pay their fines too and the local administrative head was not helping Hindus rebuild the temple, as he is under the thumb of the clerics who are creating hurdles in the temple’s reconstruction.

As per data, only 30 functional temples are there in Pakistan, the rest have been demolished and taken over.
