    the governor seems to be most communal person which can happen to karnataka, occasion was navarathri, could have spoken about the significance of the event etc instead go and talk about communal harmony which is only digging deep in to peoples sentiments,

    Good photos. A happy and peaceful Navarathri wishes to my hindu brethern. Again I am asking why these political big wigs from Congress in the religious functions. Its purely a congregation of faithfuls and politics must be kept away from religions. Now it looks like congress mela rather than Durga Pooja. I feel the administration of this temple must have blessings of and patronisation of congress party as the same way happened when BJP big wigs got together in Udupi for Sri Krishna janmashtami.

    The presence of political goondas will make sincere faithful's life miserable as there would be protocols, naka bandhis and security cardons and devotees are put to lot of inconvenience. The festival belongs to faithfuls and true devotees and not to the politicians who change their colour and spirit every now and then.

    Happy Navaratri to all brotherly Hindus and to Mr.Janardhan Poojary for his continues service to his community as well as his tireless work towards keeping the harmony and good will of all communities.I wish to say that he and Dr.Mohan Alva are the only two leaders from Karavali, who invite and respect the Muslim leaders in their Functions,and no other Majority community leader even care for the Muslims ,whereas they be invited and attend all their functions.

    First of all let me wish Happy Navarathri to all. I congratulater in this occasion to Sri . H. S. Sairam and Sri. B. J. Poojary. To... . Mr. Eric Coelho/ Mangalore/Ajman, for your kind information, Sri B. Janardhana Poojary is the promoter of the Kudroli temple. Because of him and other congress men the temple has name and fame. The beauty to the temple has come because of them. There is no restriction to the entry . Any politicians can visit the temple.

    Now Regarding Religion and politics.... Do you know what M.K. Gandhi says ...Those who say religion has nothing to do with Politics do not know what religion is....Mr. Vasanth Raj/Udupi/Abudhabi/ please note this Quote.

    I agree with Mr. Eric. I think till today not a single BJP leader participaed or invited to any function in Kudroli, because it is headed by congress leader Mr.BJP, so Godess of Kudroli called as Congress God.

    Eric Coelho, Mangalore/Ajman why you are playing political game here also CONGRESS / BJP , Just ask yourself are all Muslims & Christians in India were Hindus in the past,"They just have changed their way of worship. If you accept this, there will be no clashes. No community in the country is a minority. They have to live in INDIA and die here. You should accept that we all had the same ancestors and our culture, you too was the same." But at least in KUDROLI TEMPLE we can see Hindus , Muslims Christians under one roof as per teaching of Narayan Guru 'ONE CASTE ONE RELIGION ONE GOD'. Please dont DIVIDE by your commnets

    How the Political Leaders play politics with Religion. If you clearly observe that the Mysore Dasara was inaugurated by the Ruling BJP Govt. If you observe the Mangalore Dasara it was inaugurated by the Governor who is a Congress leader and also other leaders are Congress. How religion is divded on Political Lines. I will serve my god who is congress, you serve your god who is BJP.
