Mangalore, Dec 6: “The media has become important in our day to day life with the purpose of imparting education, awareness, and entertainment, but forgetting these may lead to danger and will affect society”, said Bishop of Mangalore Dr Aloysius Paul D’Souza on Sunday December 6.

Presiding over ‘A Three-fold Celebration’, organized to mark the 100th episode of ‘Daivik Sakath’, a television programme produced by Fathima Retreat House, the Bishop said that the media has helped people listen and view good programmes such as this.

“But sometimes the sensationalizing of some news and illegal activities has made the media go beyond the basic causes”, he said.

“Even though a major part of the media is serving society, there is a doubt that living without media is not possible”, added the Bishop.


















Oscar Fernandes, former union minister and general secretary of Indian National Congress party, said, “Watching Daivik Sakath programmes and the holy words may lead us to live happily”.

Fernandes launched the website www.daiviksakat.org on the occasion. 

Justice Michel F Saldhanha, retired judge, Karnataka High Court, said that he will join hands for Daivik Sakath as a tribute to his hometown which has helped him in many ways.

Fr Joseph Rodrigues, rector of St Aloysius College, Fr Walter D’Mello, parish priest of Milagres Church, Louis Pinto, president of ‘Mandd Sobhann’, and Blossom Fernandes were also present.

Several benefactors of the episodes were honoured during the programme. Fr Ronnie Prabhu, spiritual director of Fathima Retreat House, welcomed all.  

A cultural and musical programme was organized afterwards with the highlight being a performance by the inmates of the Little Sisters of the Poor. 

Daivik Sakath episodes are telecast on local cable channels.

    Congratulations to the team at Daiviksakat, particularly Fr. Ronnie Prabhu for the success of this program in the service of the people in D.K. and beyond. Keep up the good work and may God bless your efforts in providing the much needed strength to people of all faiths. Few people are aware that you are carrying on this great service with meagre resources. I hope this is a milestone you have crossed and continue to find the resources to expand this great service.
