Sri Yogi Narayana Yathindra Jayanti

Madikeri, Mar. 6: Yogi Narayana Balija Sangha District President T.G. Ganesh Naidu has demanded that 2A Backward Class reservation should be given for the employment of Balija Samaj students.

He spoke while participating in the Sri Yogi Narayana Yathindra Jayanti (Kaivara Tathaiya) program held at Gandhi Bhavan in the city on Tuesday in collaboration with the District Administration, Zilla Panchayat, Kannada and Culture Department.

Balija Samaj students have been given 2A reservation in education. But reservation has been made only in 3A in employment. This is unfair to Balija Samaj students and he appealed that reservation should be given under 2A Backward Class in employment as well as education.

There are rich and poor in every society. But the extremely poor are not getting employment, so this should be taken into account, the president of the district unit of Yogi Narayana Balija Samaj requested.

Former president of the Karnataka Silk Sales Board, T.P. Ramesh, said that the 300th birth anniversary of Shri Yogi Narayana Yathindra has been celebrated today.

He said that the life, customs, thoughts, culture and contribution made to society by Kaivara Tataiah should always be remembered. He said that Kaivara Tataiah, who was a philosopher, was born in Chintamani taluk of Chikkaballapur district in 1726. He spread the message of equality in society through the words and hymns of Dasara. The cuckoo of Dasara literature is named after him. He said that the poor and orphans have worked hard for others. He was born and raised in a normal family and taught them how to live like others in society, said T.P. Ramesh.

Kodagu Balija Samaj President T.L. Srinivas said that there is a population of 8 to 10 thousand Balija Samaj in Kodagu district and they are planning to organize a chariot festival on the occasion of Kaivara Tataiah's Jayanti. He said that Kaivara Tataiah's Jayanti should be celebrated in every village of the district.

Balija Sangha Taluk Unit President T.K. Meenakshi Keshava spoke and said that Kaivara Tataiah has made his own contribution to the nation. He said that his social-oriented thoughts and ideas were far-sighted.

DYPC Krishnappa of the School Education Department spoke. Prominent persons H.L. Diwakar, Kanda Devaiah Uday Kumar, Hemalatha, Shyamala, Naveen, Samant, Yashwanth, and others were present. Assistant Director of the Kannada and Culture Department Kumar welcomed the gathering. Manajur Manjunath presented the speech and proposed the vote of thanks.
