Prophet Muhammed's message is the best reply to RSS: Mahendra Kumar

Mangaluru, 02 Feb 2019 [Fik/News Sources]: “Muslims who don’t understand the teachings of Quran, turn into terrorist after they are brain washed by the anti-social elements, similarly in Hindus, people who don’t know what actual Hinduism, hate people of other religion” Social activist Mahendra Kumar KR on Friday said while taking a dig at Sangh Parivar.

He was speaking at the townhall here at the valedictory function of the campaign themed ‘Understanding the Prophet of mankind’. The campaign was aimed at spreading the message of Prophet Muhammed, the last messenger of Islam between November 30, 2018 to February 1, 2019.

“Youth of the country has to stand up against these Fringe elements who are damaging the image of the country. The Sangh Parivar is openly endorsing and supporting the murderer of Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation. One can imagine the situation of the country where a organisation is misleading its youth by supporting the murderer of the biggest patriot”.

“The RSS has been inculcating the intoxication of religion and is playing with the minds of the youth of the country” Mahendra Kumar further said.

Mahendra Kumar further lauded the efforts of Muslim community in organising programmes to promote peace and harmony in the society while also adding that such programmes and campaigns are the answers to Sangh Parivar.

“They (Sangh Parivar) idolise Swami Vivekananda, but he never taught or asked people to hate other religion and its followers, he always advocated the mutual understanding among religions and stressed upon the fact that hatred will take people nowhere” Mahendra Kumar added.

Folk scholar KL Kundantaya said that Prophet Muhammed was the ‘link between the God and the mankind’. “Following the teachings of Prophet Muhammed is the need of the hour” Kundataya added.

Varthabharathi Editor-in-Chief Abdussalam Puthige who presided over the event, also spoke on the occasion. UNIWEF Karnataka president Rafiuddin Kudroli delivered valedictory address.

UNIWEF state secretary Khalid UK, members Atheeq, Syed, Thanvir and others were among present during the event.
