Violence broke out in the Uttar Pradesh capital city on Friday as hundreds of irate Muslims, protesting violence against the community in Assam and Myanmar, took to the streets, attacked people, and vandalised shops and vehicles in their way. It all started after prayers on the last Friday of the m
onth of Ramzan when a mob of over 2,000 people, owing allegiance to Jamaat-e- Ulema took out a procession from old Lucknow after the 'alvida namaaz' and began moving towards the Vidhan Sabha. Raising slogans against the killings of Muslims in Myanmar and Assam, the crowd turned violent even targeting the famous Buddha Park where they vandalised many statues and uprooted plants. The police posse present there remained silent spectators. The crowd was finally physically stopped at the Vidhan Sabha when the protestors wanted to proceed towards the chief minister's Kalidas Marg residence. The mob then turned its ire on the mediapersons and cameramen present at the legislature, attacking the journalists, breaking their cameras and vandalising the OB van of a national television channel. While the mob soon melted away, the mediapersons staged a sit-in demanding action and arrest of the people who attacked them. They said they would not move until the principal secretary for home came and met them and ordered arrest of the attackers. Violent protests have been reported from Kanpur also where protestors pelted stones on passers-by at Rizvi Road and Cycle Market areas after the namaaz. Rapid Action Force (RAF) has been deployed to prevent further escalation of violence.

Assam calm; exodus to North-East continues
Assam calm; exodus to North-East continues
Officials say around 15,000 people from north-eastern states have left Bangalore in the past three days
Assurances from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and opposition parties in Parliament on Friday failed to assuage the fears of people from north-eastern states, who continued to rush back home from other states on rumours of planned attacks on them.
Railway officials estimated that around 15,000 people from north-eastern states had left Bangalore in the past three days, although fewer people boarded trains heading back home on Friday compared with the days before.
The exodus is happening over fears of a backlash following ethnic conflict between Bodo tribals and Muslims in Assam that left 77 people dead and at least 400,000 displaced.
There were sporadic incidents of violence on Thursday in Assam but on Friday the state was calm, according to government officials. No untoward incident was reported from any other part of the country either.
Singh said his government is taking action against those spreading rumours of attacks. “We will do everything to provide them (people from north-east) security,” Singh said. “We must curb all the elements which are out to create trouble on this sensitive issue.” He added that people from the North-East had as much right as anybody else to study and work in any part of India.
Home minister Sushil Kumar Shinde said the government is investigating whether the rumours had been instigated from outside the country.
Sushma Swaraj, leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha, stressed the need to rise above party lines and send a clear message that people from the north-east had the freedom to live, work and study wherever they wished to in the country.
National Commission for Minorities chairperson Wajahat Habibullah said the violence in Assam was a result of clashes between Bodos and “resident Muslims” and not Bangladeshi immigrants.
The Union government banned bulk phone text messages for the next 15 days to quell rumours that triggered the exodus.
In Bangalore, South Western Railways divisional railway manager Anil Kumar Agarwal said the railways had sold 9,718 tickets for two special trains that headed to Guwahati on Thursday night.
The Karnataka government issued advertisements in Bangalore’s leading newspapers requesting people from the North-East to stay back in Bangalore. “We on behalf of people of Karnataka and government once again reassure the people of the north-eastern community that they are safe and welcomed in Karnataka,” chief minister Jagadish Shettar and state home minister R. Ashoka said in the advertisements.
Shettar was in New Delhi on Friday morning to discuss the situation with members of Parliament from Karnataka. He also requested the Railways to provide additional trains.
How Tibetans are misused to mislead Muslims through social media
How Tibetans are misused to mislead Muslims through social media
Though the technological era today is considered to be a highly sophisticated and easily accessible to the information around the world, this is has also rendered threat and misconceptions. The extensive use of social media has proved to be highly threatening with the spread of simple lies created by some miscreants...
This following picture of Tibetan monks were taken during relief camp service offered by the brave Tibetans during the Yushu Earthquake in Tibet and China in 2010. But some miscreants have spread this picture has the Buddhist monks slaughtering the Muslims in Burma recently. So please don't be carried away by such pointless misconceptions.
Another lie about one of the most widespread pictures from the Tibetan community that has been misused is the picture of Tibetan hero Pawo Jampa Yeshi's self immolation in New Delhi. This picture was taken during his brave sacrifice through self immolation for the cause of Tibet but again it is heart breaking to see some people misusing this as means of creating chaos. They have used this picture to mislead the Muslim community by claiming that it was picture of a Muslim man burnt alive in Burma.

These sorts of lies are extremely painful for the Tibetans to even hear and they truly insult the honour of Tibetans, therefore we would like to request all those people behind this to stop playing with our feelings. The first kind of picture is extremely serious which may lead to a chaos in the two societies.
Please do not be carried away by the lies in the air and respect your right to know the truth.
