Udupi, Jul 31:
An egg etched with Arabic was found near Naganakatte, behind Vasudev Temple, Koppalangady, on Friday July 30, and this caused apprehension to the local residents. 

Hundreds of curious people gathered at the site where the egg, etched with both Arabic and Urdu letters and numbers, was found. The tense situation which prevailed was about to turn violent.
 
Kaup MLA Lalaji R Mendon, temple renovation committee former president Dr Prabhakar Shetty, Janardhan temple managing trustee Jayaram Hegde, temple priest Shresha Tantri, Vasudev Bhajan Mandal president Uday Shetty, advisor Ashok Shetty, Kaup gram panchayat president Yogish Rai, and village elders arrived at the location and calmed the commotion over the etched egg.
 
Kaup sub-inspector Mohan Kottari visited the location and is investigating the incident.
 
The temple authorities contacted renowned astrologer Nitte Prasanna Acharya who confirmed that the egg etched with Arabic and Urdu was an act of witchcraft, and there was no need for apprehension.  He advised caution so that such acts are not repeated in future.

    To some readers here, would you support a Pig be left very near to any mosque, & then pass comment to have a dinner with varient receips ?

    Stop passing such stupid comments. Think wise. Never support any action by people that offends other religious sentiments. Though it may be acceptable to one but it may be disliked by other community. Practise your religion, but avoid comenting on other religion.

    It is madness to give so much importance to such silly and meaningless incidents. We have to be more matured and maintain cool at all times. We should not get carried away with negative emotions so easily. With so many unpleasant incidents and happenings in Mangalore in the recent past, it is best we ignore such things and live in peace.

    I love to write something if I get a plain paper. You can write anything using the languages you know. If you don't know the script don't create panic. Only Rupees 10/- the writer has spent to buy egg and marker.

    I hope there will not be another CBI enquiry as which hen lay the egg. Was it a muslim hen or a hindu hen???. If it was a hindu hen then how come the egg has arabic and urdu etchings?
    If it's a muslim hen then how come it ventured near the temple?

    Looking at the handsome gentlemen in the pics with a tilak on the forehead looks like they are all set for another big war. Our country is really progressing.

    Just give me the egg and i can have it scrambled for breaki tomorrow morning and please stop getting such news on ur portal
