Mangalore, 11 Aug 2013: ‘Community people travel to foreign countries far away from motherland to earn their livelihood and feed their families. In Billawa community, there are several parents who have sacrificed and toiled hard to educate their children. Students can be role models to society when they are educated by inculcating discipline. The discipline what they acquire should also be practiced in day-to-day life. Narayana Guru has given wonderful message to the society; the community should also follow his message,’ said former union minister Janardhan Poojary, who is also the managing trustee of Sri Gokarnanatheshwara Temple, Kudroli.

 

He spoke after inaugurating the scholarship distribution programme for students organized by Billawas Dubai and Northern Emirates (BDNE), Dubai, held under the aegis of Gokarnatheshwara Kshetra, Kudroli, Guru Charitable Trust at Koragappa Memorial Hall here on Sunday August 11.

 

Commenting on community youth who have been involved in offences, Poojary said, ‘The family members should boycott youths who are involved in committing offences. Power is not important to anyone but the attitude of individual is very essential.’

 

 

He also said that the Congress has brought about immense development in the region with projects like development of Bunder port, international status to Mangalore airport, highway construction and development of railway.

 

On behalf of BDNE, Janardhana Poojary also distributed medical aid to 15 people ailing from illnesses.

 

On this occasion Vasanth Bangera honored 8 student achievers in various fields.

 

Lauding BDNE for its social work, MLA Vasant Bangera said, ‘A person’s birth is in God’s hands; nobody came to this earth submitting application to god asking to be born in a certain community. Koti and Chennayya who were born in Billawa community were courageous and truthful; we community people should also imbibe that courage to serve the society.’

 

He further said, ‘Billawa community is a majority community in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi, and they have even contributed largely changing the government. In the recent budget, the government has reserved Rs 5 crore to develop Enmooru and also to establish chair in Narayana Guru in Mysore University. If the community develops, state will develop.’

 

Gokarnatheshwara temple president H S Sairam, Guru Charitable Trust president Sadananda Suvarna, Jitendra Suvarna, Krishna Poojary, Udaya Kumar Kateel, Sudhakar Poojary, Mohan Athavar, Prabhakar Salian, Praveen Kumar Salian, Vittal Poojary and others were present on the occasion.
