Why Laloo, our Railway Minister, have nothing for Konkan Railway commuters? Is it just a populist budget.. or progressive one? Any comments?

Vincent D'Souza 07/07/2004

I have raised few Questions and very happy to have them answered, by the learned panel members. They are not just mine only, may be some relevent to others. I feel a healthy discussion or exchange of opinions may help our soceity..... Don't hesitate, you write to me or the site and analyse them and let us see if it benefits us.

The doubts of Mr Abhijit are well answered by Mr James and more precisely by Mr Bhaskar. I understand this is a privately managed site for public, a sort of good social work, by few public minded people by spending from their pocket. The site in its approach and coverage promoted good ideals in every human being, hitherto got neglected at large at our natives. To start something and to continue with it is a big responsibility and friends like Abhijeeth most welcome to be in the mainstream, and support the Site Team.

It is a welcome news that Pedruchi Chavi released on 4th  and now it is a patient wait  till that land in our hands. The presence of Barkurians in large number in places  like Kuwait and UAE surely support and happy to bring out one issue, the way mumbai-kar's  and now muscat-gar's done it. Friends take lead, we will be happy to participate!

Dear Mr. Abhijeeth: What is wrong with Christian values? These are universal values preached in every religion, practiced or not. Christ preached that the greatest commandment is to "Love your neighbor...", so did, Buddha, Gandhi, or our mothers!
He did not say to love your Christian neighbor alone, nor did He say to hate others belonging to other religions! Barkur.com has strived its best to embrace every Barkurian irrespective of cast, creed, status, or bank balance. If I wish "Merry Christmas", it does not mean I am imposing christianity on every reader. If I read "Happy Divali", actually, I feel good because, someone is wishing "prosperity", even to me! But I do not consider someone is asking me to become a Hindu!

This is in reference to the comment made by Abhijith. For his reference Barkur.com web site started by Mr.Kishore Gonsalves prominent youth leader among Barkur Christian.

Although he took the initiate, risk, challenge and hard work to promote Barurian scattered all around the world to come together to share their experience and receive the news message from hometown Barkur. If he thinks that this site is promoting only Christian value that is his stupidity and ignorance. Readers may notice that in the past this site publishing non- Christian religious activities without any barriers despite their contribution is nil and the readers are minimum. Wherever he is living at least he should be happy that he is getting Barkur news available free of cost.

Dear Mr Abhijit,

There is absolutely no room for any confusion nor the site is promoting  any religious values on its visitors. Whenever I sent one sentence or some broken English words to the Host, he has published it. Moreover, it is left to us, the Hindus or any  other religion followers to send in articles and then let us see if they are not  published. I am pretty confident, and I too studied in Christian Educational  Institutions, but remained strong in my faith and learned to respect other faith too.

Let me request Mr Abhijit or others who are blessed with writing talents, to write to  this Site and let us introduce ourselves and the great legacies of Hindu Culture. Sorry,  I am not that learned, but can contribute a sentence or two either to support or oppose  whatever I like or dislike, in these web pages.

With Best Wishes,

Bhaskar L.Poojary03/07/2004

Friends, carry on your work without any fear or favour.All the best.

We too join you to welcome Fr. Aranha to Barkur Parish. He is a very active and popular Priest. CYM Unit of Barkur a familiar name around this place, now got special recognition to be 2nd Best in the D.K, Udupi and Kasargod Districts. All members and leaders deserve  praise for this landmark honour. Meanwhile I fail to understand Mr Abhijit's point - how  this site thrust Christian values on others? Each web-site is free to toe its own path and  it is not compulsory to read or subscribe to the opinions aired over there. No one insist  me or ask anyone or compel someone to go through it - I like it, so I read it, that's all. If at all I don't like or appreciate something, I'll waste no time to bring to Host's  notice, like this one small note......!

IS THE "PEDRUCHI CHAVI" JUNE ISSUE RELEASED? ARE THERE ANY PLANS TO MAKE IT ONLINE, THE WAY "BELLEVISION" AND OTHERS TRYING FOR. GREAT NEWS "CYM" IS SECOND BEST IN THE  DIOCESE. "ALWYN" THE NEW LEADER IN THE MAKING, KEEP GOING.

Felciana D'Silva, Kuwait, 03/07/2004

We the President, Office bearers and the Members of the ICYM Barkur Ex-Member's Association,  feel proud of our Parent Organisation and congratulate its present President and All  Members - on this glorious moment of winning the Diocesan recognition to be Second Best  Unit! Untiring efforts of Directors, Animators Mr. Herald D'Souza and Mrs Noreen Lobo  too deserve appreciation in moulding Barkurian Youth Power, in constructive channels.

On behalf of ICYM Barkur Ex-Member's Association,

Ivan M. Rebello – President, P.Archibald  Furtado - Secretary. 03/07/2004

I' am really confused, weather its website for Barkur, or to promote Christian values among Barkurians, why so much emphasize on Christianity there, It looks kind of, people are forcing  their values on others

Abhijith, 30/06/2004

WISH YOU ALL AND YOUR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS, A HAPPY FEAST OF SAINTS PETER AND PAUL.

Late Teacher Jerry Picardo, was the only Catholic representative in the National Jr. College for 4 decades. Our role was no less than anyone, in putting the High school here, but now not even a single catholic teacher! He was a slow teacher but perfect, rightly said in your article, he prepared citizens not students just pass exams. Sir we need more articles, by the by K.S. Kalkur and Kurady also a good reading stuff, keep it up.

Last Sunday we got the news that Oman based Barkurian's bringing out Pedruchichavi special. It is a good development. Try to include a directory of Barkurian's and their details, as We know there are good number of gavnkars in the city and interiors. Oman is a vast country. Why there is no mention of this in the site? Wish you all a Happy Feast of Saints Peter and Paul, have a great feast. I feel the questions raised by Philip and few answers qualify for further discussion.... With regards,

MM Alvares, alvaresmm@hotmail.com 26/06/2006

Why now updates are fewer compared to earlier days.Only solace is answers to Philip, but it too failed to arouse discussion specially, I was looking forward for a House site proposal in Barkur, (not Heradi or Railway station,) are there any good sites available, pl flash news in barkuronline.. Is new priest taking any interest in such and other matters like Jubillee of Church?

Vincent D' Souza, 26/06/2006

My heartfelt condolences to the family of Micheal D'Almeida May the Almighty God give them the strength to bear the loss of their dear one.
