    Seriously Rama sene thought a christian school taught Arabic forcefully?? If they wanted to forcefully to teach something then it would be latin. Arabic is the last language they would likely to forcefully teach.

    Forgive & Forget. If you arrest them then ISIS will cut down innocent people's heads. At least these people are a roadblock for ISIS. These people are better than ISIS as they don't cut heads.

    There is no harm to learn any languages. Who are these SRS jobless people, good for nothing. Did they have any rights to take Law and order in their hands ??? If so, no use of Police Dept.

    I reiterate, nothing wrong in teaching Arabic or French.
    But when a catholic institution does this, without including Sanskrit, it sends a wrong message. Received so by SRS.
    The headmaster should have given a serious thought on teaching Arabic to Hindu students as a option, but no option to learn Sanskrit.
    I studied in a Church managed school where I had an opportunity to study Sanskrit and Arabic. Arabic was taught to Hindu students after school hours coz the regular classes clashed with Sanskrit classes.

    The base i got in Arabic and Sanskrit, later made me to study both proficiently.

    Sanskrit is mother of all languages.
    Tamil and Kannada languages derived from Tulu. It already endorsed by tamilian chief minister Shri Annadurai in parliament.
    Malalyam script adopted from Tulu.
    Endorsed by Kerala Minister Karunakaran.
    Moreover...Hinduism is mother of religions. People who claim they themselves totally different..is saying absured..for there satisfaction.
    God showered everything at one place only...i.e. in Indian Continent.
    Slowly it's comes to the knowledge of everybody.
    That's the reason everything starts from India...and end with India. Other's all temporary in between. May be they claim anything..all proved null and void.
    Please here after encourage our local languages and introduce to the world. No need excuses..it won't give jobs.

    Can somebody tell what is the purpose teaching local Hindu girls this foreign language Arabic? What is the hidden agenda?

    Children at the age of 12-13 find it very difficult to learn 3 languages Kannada Hindi and English. School management is making children life more miserable. Shame on them.

    Please arrest school management and principle too..

    Always doing which are against 83% majority people.
    If they are much interested let them introduce all local languages.
    Doing wrong things first..and arresting latter..spoiling name of all. Divide and rule are always applied but not successful everywhere.

    No one forced them to join that school. They are free to join any other schools. U.P. Bihar is a better place to those who wants to top without studying.

    Why arrest. Just encounter such criminals.who has given them a authority to enter and raid a school. If they have issue they should complain to police to look into a issue.this is called Isis or taliban type of terrorism has to be stopped in a democratic secular india. Arabic or urdu is good to learn so that if islamic terrors enter india and only talks in those languages it is good for the citizens to understand thier language or motives. Additional language always makes good to go. We are all tired of terrorsit all over the world. Please donot produce more from our great india where hindus are loved and peacefull people by everyone

    Don't you know that half of the population in the Middle East Muslim/Arab countries jobs are occupied by Indians who feed their family back home. These is no bar on religion basis and most of them are Hindus only. Have little concern at least for their language.

    Even Late Indira Gandhi also done the same thing...introduced emergency. Well known union leader like George Fernandes went under ground. Government fall immediately after wards. Same us going to happen in karnatka. How many people are you going to arrest.
