Mangalore diocese, Udupi Catholic Sabha condemn MP Shobha’s comment on churches over vaccine


Daijiworld Media Network – Mangaluru/Udupi (MS)

Mangaluru/Udupi, May 20: Mangalore diocese and Catholic Sabha Udupi Pradesh have vehemently condemned the statement of MP Shobha Karandlaje who accused that churches are misguiding people and asking them not to take Covid vaccination.

In a press release, PRO of Mangalore diocese Roy Castelino said, “The Christian community is serving the society at various levels during this difficult times of Covid19 pandemic by creating awareness in churches about Covid pandemic and also has provided helping hand to distraught people. The churches have also helped the district administration as well as the health department to open Covid care centres in the premises owned by them.

“Public is informed about the vaccination programme by the Christian fraternity and also organized vaccination in church premises in the beginning when the vaccination programme started. Bishops, priests and other Christian leaders are leading from front by getting vaccinated themselves. It is painful for the Christian community to hear false statement of MP Shobha Karandlaje saying that the churches are asking their community not to take Covid vaccination,” he stated in the statement.

Meanwhile, Mary D’Souza, president of Catholic Sabha Udupi Pradesh, in a media release said, “The statement given by Shobha Karandlaje, MP of Udupi and Chikkamagaluru Lok Sabha constituency saying that churches are misleading their community people and preventing them from not taking the Covid vaccination is childish. We condemn this statement outright.

“The Christian community is silently serving the society under the leadership of Catholic Sabha through the Covid warriors in all the churches of Udupi district. In addition to creating awareness on taking the vaccination cutting across religious lines, our warriors have taken many people to the vaccination centers for administering the same. Christian educational institutions, prayer halls and auditoriums are converted as Covid care centers throughout the country. Christian community has considered the service with respect to health of society is service of God. MP Shobha should not forget that Christian community is always in the forefront of this service.

“Bishops, priests and other Christian leaders themselves are leading the community from front by taking the vaccination. It is not right on the part of MP Shobha Karandlaje to accuse that the churches are against Covid vaccination.

“Christian community is serving the society by providing food kits to the families who are distraught due to the lock down that is imposed by the state government. Even during the first lockdown the community has done this noble work. All these works are done by Christians silently without expecting any propaganda or appreciation. The Christian community follows the Covid guidelines laid down by the state government without fail. It has closed all the churches. It will be great if Shobha Karandlaje can make it public how the community is spreading wrong information on Covid vaccination when all the churches are closed. Otherwise, we request the MP not to give statements aiming to malign the Christian community just for publicity and propaganda.

“Instead of targeting a specific religious community for political gains, MP should try to provide more vaccinations in every health centre. This will be fitting reward to the service that the Covid warriors of our community are doing. In addition, this will also prevent people from standing in queue and returning back home without the availability of vaccine.

“I would like to convey to MP Shobha Karandlaje as well as the district administration that Catholic Sabha Udupi Pradesh is ready to provide any cooperation on behalf of the diocese, with regards to Covid pandemic control,” she stated in the media release.

It may be recalled, in a press conference that was held at the BJP office of Chikkamagaluru recently, MP Shobha had said, “It has come to my notice that churches in some parts of Chikkamagaluru including Mudigere and Aldur are making false propaganda not to take vaccination for Covid among people who have got converted to Christian faith. It has to be detected why and who are saying this?”

Widespread condemnation is being done by public against the statement of MP Shobha that churches are instigating people not to take Covid vaccination. She also said in her statement that people who got converted to Protestant and Pentecost factions of church are indulging this kind of false propaganda.

    ಉಂದು ಪೂರಾ ಯಾನ್ ಹಾಕಿನಕ್ಕ ಮಲ್ಪುವೆ, ಈ ಬುಲ್ತಿನಕ್ಕ ಮಲ್ಪು Like game. In the name of Churches MP trying to get publicity, By issuing press statements these so called leaders trying to gain some mileage. And we the readers are commenting, arguing and pressing like dislike buttons. For a while this will stop. Public memory is short and after some time again another public statement and another round of press statements. Photos and Publicity in media. Now, If Church and its agents consider this matter seriously let them file a case officially on behalf in the name church as complainant, bring an injunction order from the honorable court. Sad part is ... Head of Church or its Agents not seems to be doing this. It seems like the MP, they also want to remain in circulation. If issue is closed once and for all, what else they can do for publicity ? This is my frank opinion.

To get a seat one should make communal statements or some criminal activities. Don’t forget the service Christian institutions to this country. Even you were educated in one of them. Also may I remind you majority of Covid aid has come from Christian and Muslim countries. People struggling for air with Covid don’t ask if it was Muslim or Christian oxygen or oxygen concentrators.

    I am really really shattered that a few of our politicians have the audacity to give such irresponsible statements and there is absolutely nothing being done, whereas just a couple of posters can get people into trouble. Dear Shobha, Christians are a selfless population due to whom there has been so many people who have risen to glory in their lives. Yet they are called rice bags and what not. But they still tolerate every bad thrown at them. Dont you see the difference. That is what the Bible teaches them to be. Gods wrath is beyond anyone comprehension. May God give the humility to understand this and may God give you the sense to serve people without prejudice.

    There is a controversy in certain corona vaccine mass production process for using cells from elective aborted fetuses during the initial/testing process. Cells derived from elective abortions have been used since the 1960s to manufacture vaccines, including current vaccines against rubella, chickenpox, hepatitis A, and shingles as well. Certain religious groups have expressed their concerns about this process. But I do not know what this lady heard, understood and making statements. It would be better if she focuses on handling the situation rather than making such statements as a responsible elected representative. There is a supply and demand problem that has to resolved first.

    MP Shobha, intentionally, falsely, conspicuously accused / targetted Churches. Her intention and language, comment deserves harshest condemnation. This news should reach every nook and corner to expose malafide intentions. In the same style, she never lauded the good work and decipline of Churches, Schools, Hospitals and the community here and accross the world, in combating Corona Virus. Can we expect any good and sincerity from these types of M.P. other than divisive politics?

    She wanted to be in the limelight by creating some controversial statements but that against secular norms of our constitution. She should have collected proof of such claims but she acted Penny wise Pound foolish. This is normal with half filled utensils make mor noice and less commitment or executions. If PM is ot biased he should call for executive committee and must instruct her not to create disharmony in peaceful socciety. Tongue is boneless and she is brainless too. C8

    CM Yedyurappa and his ministers have miserably failed in controling Corona Virus in the state. So just to put the blame on minority communities MP Shobha Karandlaje has accused Churches. It is totally rubbish and false statement from her. She should have verified before talking something nonsense. He is not bothered about the suffering of the Covid-19 patients. Instead of visiting the hospitals, she is sitting in an ac room and issues irresponsible statement. She should know that the Christian comunity is united and no longer tolerates such rubbish statement from a BJP MP.

    Demand for that balf knowledge MP on Christians for apologies in public. It is a shame on such person who is in public office pass such comments towards christianity who in reality helps mass population of India in every field. With hate you cant be a good public leader. She is treating Christian's like her enemy. Everytime these leaders talk bad about Christian's who has given them rights and power to hate it's own citizens of the country.
