    You well said Mr. Ramesh. Everybody knows what is happening in the world. It is not because of Kalladaka Prabhakara Bhat. Same ill mentality people trying to destabillise India also. See what is happening in Assam and who were supporting them. Though they knwo that they are inflitrtated from Bangladesh our know MPs supporting them just for vote.
    What Sri Kedilaya doing is a nationalistic cause. Instead of supporitng it people write nonsense because he is wearing safron.

    Ramesh S. once again you are comparing Karnataka with other states ? Other States have communal tensions so Karnataka also should have the same problem ? In Kerala hand of a Christian was chopped. Do you expect the same in Karnataka as well ? Let us pray for peace and unity among all Indians.

    Mr. Ramesh S., why do we always justify BJPs mistakes comparing with the errors of other parties ? Why do we compare crimes of other States and satisfy ourseleves as Karnataka is safer than other States ? Was Karnataka same before few years ? Now, all of a sudden why this change ? Why neighbors are acting like enemies of neighbors ? Didn't we live peacefully celebrating Diwali, Christmas & Eid together ? Who is responsible for this enemity ? What do we achieve from hatred ? If they had taken a yatra against crime & rape of poor girls in our own State it would have been appreciated by all.

    ..Mr.Peter periera..what communal things you saw in this yatra..he is from RSS for that reason..he is doing for a good cause..eventhough i dnt know him..he looks like senior citizen, spiritual person..not politician...in UP election shahee imam of Delhi openly called to vote for SP (and got ministerial berth for his son in law), Dar ul uloom openly called for vote Congess in Gujrat...Is it OK..you are in Mumbai, did you see ransacking of public property & Shaheed smarak..who did that,still you feel safe than Mangalore.....Now,you see problem in everything from festivals,pooja to Bhajans..Dont be biased for each & everything otherwise people will start to search faults in you also..

    KRPrabhu, Kudla/bangalore, Thank God I am in Pune & feeling safe from uncivilised organisations, ineffective yathras and senseless hate speeches of illiterate leaders. Yes, I am fit only to say ha ha. By the way can you tell me what are you fit for ? To support the jobless youths who attack innocent girls and minority worship places ? To support the leaders who instigate Indian against fellow Indian ?

    Ha ha, Pumpwell is getting popularity ! What about other two heros of Pumpwell caged for stealing girl's jacket & birthday cake during a birthday celebration in Morning Mist ? Most of the Vedikes and Yatras are full of similar jobless & illiterate youths who have no voice in rape & murder cases as their own friends are involved in the crime.

    Shri Kedilaya's Bharath Parikram Yathra sounds good and even it's motto/goal(Rural development and fostering harmony) also impressive.But people who are associated with the welcome function in Pumpwell,Mangalore,like BHAT/SHARAN gives another message!!!.Anyway,If Kedilaya brings small change(positive) in the attitude of the people concerned,I would say, well done and keep walking.Good luck.
