Bhopal: Nearly 3000 members of several Christian and
progressive organisations took out a silent march from St.
Philomena's Church premises in Mysore city on Saturday morning as a
mark of protest against the recent attack by miscreants on Holy
Family Church in Hinkal.
The activists of Sarva
Dharma Samanvya Samithi, Popular Front of India and various
progressive and Christian organisations took part in the march.
Earlier, a meeting was held in the Church premises to condemn the
attack on Hinkal Church.
According to Star of
Mysore online, a daily web news portal www.starofmysore.com, Bishop
Rev. Thomas Antony Vazhapilly, who addressed the meeting, strongly
condemned the attack and said that the government should take
stringent action against the culprits. The Government should also
take measures to prevent such attacks on churches in future, he
added and called upon the people to maintain peace and discipline
while taking out the protest march.
Rev. Fr. Marie Joseph,
Parish Priest, who also addressed the meeting, recalled the attack
on Holy Family Church and said that he was in the church from 9.30
pm to 11.30 pm that night, following which he went to sleep.
He said that the attack
on the church took place after midnight. There was an attack on the
Hinkal Church in 2002 also but no case was registered then. Avila
Convent too witnessed attack in 2006 and both the cases were not
taken seriously by the police, the Parish Priest reportedly
lamented. The Police are now trying to cover up the attack on Hinkal
Church as a case of robbery, he said and urged the Government to
trace the culprits and take stringent action against them.
Leaders of Christian
organisations, Priests of various Churches, former Minister Dr. H.C.
Mahadevappa, MLCs Sandesh Nagaraj, K.T. Srikantegowda, Chikkamadu,
KRRS President Puttannaiah, former MLCs D. Madegowda and B.
Chidanand, leaders and Corporators of different parties attended the
meeting. Later, a silent march was taken out from St. Philomena's
Church via Ashoka Road before culminating at Gandhi Square where the
protestors staged a silent dharna in front of Mahatma Gandhi's
statue, the report said.
The processionists
representing various Christian and other organisations from the
city, Kollegal, Mandya, Chamarajanagar, H.D. Kote and other places
wore black badges and held banners of their respective organisations.
They also held placards that appealed not to disturb communal
harmony and calling for maintaining peace, the report added.
