I do agree with Mr. Pai. India is a country with diversity. But when the time comes we all stand together unitedly. Let us not pin point at a single religion or political party. All these religions and political parties has got anti social elements and terrorists.

Let us think of India. If we think that we all Indians are brothers, no one can think of creating any problems on this beutiful soil of India. The only reason why these things are happening is WE ARE NOT UNITED. EVERY ONE SHOULD ASK THEMSELVES THAT " I AM FOR THIS COUNTRY FIRST" OR SOMETHINGELSE?

 Dear Reader, if you have the voice in your society please spread brotherlyhood unite all people together under the banner of "FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM". God Bless my INDIA" Amen.

This is to Mr.Panduranga Pai, Ofcourse we feel lucky to be in a Country like India. We are proud to be Indians!We are the future super power! But let me make a sure point that India was better in past without the fanatic organizations. Was there any terrorism earlier except a couple of states? Do you think they would ever contribute to our Nations success? They would never except involving in dirty cheap things!If these organizations are banned, I am sure there would be peace all around.Its pretty natural that They target us and we would seldom retaliate! India is not only for them, India is for You for me and for all!

Now that it has in every Muslim blood that "Mess with us, You would get the same"! Tell me any single incident where the fanatic organizations had done any thing appreciable?? Nothing except dirty things!Its up to them!Peace or Terror!Being a Muslim & Being Indian, I would always protect my interest as far as Law allows!But if Law and order is sold to those people,then alternate options would come in to picture! As far as I know,Muslims have always retaliated and the first strike was always from those organizations!

It is a shameful act. It is an attempt to disrupt law and order situation in Mangalore an attempt to fish in troubled waters. At this juncture of troubled times of our nation, sense should prevail among the educated Mangaloreans. All -irrespective of caste, creed, and cult- should condemn and shun such dastardly acts.

May peace and harmony reign in our city, our state and country. The good of our country is above everything else. My deepest sympathies to the devotees who are deeply hurt by this incident. I hope and pray that the devotees maintain their patience. May God Bless and guide you all.

SOME ONE WHO VANDALISES A PLACE OF WORSHIP AND THEN RUNS AWAY, CAN HAVE A SICK BRAIN.NOW IT IS UPTO THE HEALTHY BRAINED PEOPLE NOT TO GET INFECTED AND MAINTAIN CALM. THIS KIND OF ACTIVITY HELPS THE POLITICAL CLASS BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

 OH WHAT AN UNFORTUNATE GENERATION WE ARE TO SEE THIS SORT OF SICK PEOPLE.

The act is highly condemnable.Knowledgeable readers who expressed their anguish against particular group/community/sect, need to understand that, this can be also a brain child of people who wish to break India. Lets stay united oppose such happenings,with maturity in words and action.

By setting fire any religious place deserves no justification in any angle. The noble way to maintain peace and harmony lies with the social value of the inhabitants of that region. In every community there are black sheeps. Satyameva Jayathe..

Surely they will pay for this act. Mr. Devdas don’t  youknow about the motivation behind theft in temple and fire in the shrine? And Mr. Pandurang this is for your recall that India is secular country and every citizen has an equal right. So please think before you pen. Most of the people are silent spectators and blind. “SAARE JAHAN SE ACHA, HINDSTHAN HAMARA………..”

Good coment Pandurang. The people who makes baseless comments should learn something from you. Whoever may be the culprit, he should be given a harsh punishment. You are absolutely right, these politicians wants some issues to remain in power. But who will explain to Muslim community? They know only to shout by the name of Bajrang Dal, VHP, RSS and BJP.

Its my request to all communities to maintain peace and dont spread rumours. Co-operate with the Police.

This incident must be condemned however jumping to conclusions that RSS/ BJP are behind this is not fair either.Remember a few years ago, an organisation called Deendar-anjuman bombed churches in Bangalore and left behind pamplets implicating hindu organisations?? Considering the condition of minorities in the middle east/pak, India is heaven for minorities!! What they need to do is shed their medieval attitudes and join the mainstream. Also, give respect to other faiths if you expect other faiths to respect yours!!

This is sheer arrogance on the part of miscreants. Whoever they were, they need to be nabbed and find out who sent them inside the Dargah. May be they were mere puppets in the hands of those who really wanted to creat trouble.

My deepest sympathies to the devotees who are deeply hurt by this incident. I hope and pray that the devotees maintain their patience. May God Bless and guide you all.

Irrespective of religion in all worship places there is holiness. The miscreants have tried to ignite fire. But definitely there are some elements behind the scene who act as their Godfather. All of them will pay the price when wrath of holiness falls on them and that time it will be a shame for them. Respect others and get respect.

Dear Wasim, i can feel your pain and frustration . This is the time to express brotherhood and solidarity to each other. Its not the time to spill oil on the fire. Let every muslim who loves his country come forward and raise his voice in fighting the terrorism. Why is it not done. What do you want to explain mentioning the names os BJP and CONGRESS. Never expect anything from these politicians. They try to make their own mileage out of these kind of incidents. they are not here to serve common people.

Every politician is waiting for such moments as the election is coming closer. Dont forget this is a hindu nation. Hindus exist as minorities in Pakistan but their voice is not heard . But in India every minority has got the right to speak. Think that all of you are blessed to be in a counrty like India. Let us not fight and waste our time . Each one of us should stand together and show the world that even with so much of diversity , united we stand as one nation irrespective of the religion, culture and creed. Fight this terrorism together. God bless my country.

Absolutely Shocking...this kind of aggression by such fanatic groups need to be stopped right now by force. The Police force and Home Minister needs to step in and intervene.  If this is going to continue then things are surely going to spiral out of control and we might see a blood bath. A precedent needs to be set..... No outfit should be let to play with anyone religous sentiments...lets not forget everyone lives in a house with glasses in it ..tomorrow it could backfire. Mr. Home Minister please arrest and take strict action against these 'criminals'.

Whoever done this dastardly act is a coward secular fellow who does not know any religion. Most probably he is a non-believer. Any God believer should know that there is only one omnipotent, omnipresnt and omniscient God. Everyone is free to pray to God according to their perspective. Harming other's religious place is same as putting fire to your own religious place in the eyes of omniscient God.

I totally agree that the miscreants must be caught and punished.But before blaming BJP,RSS and Bhajarang dal, MrWasim ,Pease think whether it is right to come to conclusion that thia act has been done by a Non Muslim? Dont try to air the fire! Why should the Police give protection only to your Worship places.Has any Hindus asked for protection when worshippng idols,ornaments ,Offering boxes were stolen from temples by Muslims?

If you study the cases of theft in temples you would be surprised to know that all those involved in this are Muslims!!So it is not fare to blame all Hindus without knowing the actual fact.

Here we see such incident happening in MangaloreDist , it will be more in future as BJP come to power Gunda's of Bajrangdal,VHP, RSS are creating this problem's. Our religious centers are not protected by govt. We can appreciate our Police if they can get hold of this culprits within 24 hours,If not its is a clear indication that we have to face problem from VHP  & Police as police only can arrest innocent Muslims, but they cannot arrest the actual terrorist. Where are our ministers? Where are our Congress friends come on let us have a protest, No congress will not protest because they have a soft Hindutuva policy.
