An appeal to my readers

My beloved readers, when I took the most powerful head on, when I continued to write against Islamic terrorism despite some elements of muslim community openly threatened me to kill, when I continued the war against religious conversion, you all stood by me, enouraged me, loved me like never before. You all know, I had… put my life into risk and wrote my column week after week for 11 long years.  In this 11 years, I was virtually fired from job atleast 6 times, I was subjected to abusive utterances, But my mentor Vish Bhat was my savior all along. Now I am fighting a personal battle against RB, who is belittling all of us in his toilet tissue paper. Guyz, please don’t advise me keep quiet or ingone. After all, as I said earlier, I am not Srikrishna to forgive Shishupala untill he commits 101 mistakes. Step into my shoes for a while, you will understand…

    hmmm..

    If ever any one amongst you all is adding suffixes “ISLAM” to terrorism then you all are under dark and surely you will be witnessing the pain in your respective lives I Promise. I don’t damn mind if you put your words on pak or any country that troubles our innocent INDIANS. But you are involving infinite beliefs of people which is more painful than being killed in this terror attacks.

    Please I request you people to stop pulling out the sentiments of any religion this can result in terrorism within the country and this could benefit others.

    What exactly is going on?? I just know u and v.bhat were writing popular columns and all of sudden it stopped. I dont think RB is the owner of Vijaya Karnataka. why do you fear for a toerag like him… We all know no man in his right mind would read and carry hai bangalore with him. Please continue writing in VK.

    Good Work Pratap…. you are Lion dont get scare from Dogs keep moving……

  8. Aravind Pattar says:

    Hello Pratap,
    I haven’t seen any worse guy than RB, he who sells his articles adding sex objects to attract youth, blackmails people for black money in order to not write about them.
    “RB emba arehuchcha” was an ultimate article by you 🙂 And have read many more countless articles which were used to be published in VK under column “Bettale jagattu”.
    People need to be awaken, you wouldn’t probably be surprised to know that some people (example: slum people in our town) still believe they vote to Indira Gandhi !!!! Our very own housemaid didn’t believe when I said Indira Gandhi was died in 1983 !!! To what extent our people and so our country is lagging behind?? How many generations we need to pass to let all of them know what actually CONGRESS is?? What their true nature is .. ! I literally have stopped reading news papers and watching news. It really irritates me, when I read/watch news about our very own Politicians and worthless rumors of movie stars. WE NEED MANY ARTICLES FROM YOU .. WE NEED MANY MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU.
    I actually admire the people who know Pratap simha and his article “bettale jagattu”. And I was upset to read about ur resignation to VK .. however when I read this:
    Guyz, wait for few more days or months, we will come up with something really BIG. Have faith in our ability and integrity.
    felt somewhat easy :))
    expecting from you 🙂

    take care,
    warm regards
    Aravind Pattar

  9. Girish Karadalli says:

  12. Rashmi Karadalli says:

    hi pratap sir
    yesterdy ur article abt kargil was very very inspiring. continue ur writing sir

  13. suresh says:

    Hi Pratap,
    I like your comments the way you present. you are exposing what’s happening. i wish if you would write about V SOMANNA who once was a clerk in janatha bazaar who stole money and was caught and lost his job today he his talking about Santosh hegde. can you get more info about somanna and expose his illegal activities and how he made money.

  14. pooja says:

    Hi,
    I’m a great fan of journalism by heart (though unfortunately being a science student) ma mom does get RB’s paper just to read few of his articles. He does have a skill i will not comment upon but i’v read his comments and his new way of criticism which i’v not appreciated. Also I feel its a desperate attempt to put u across after u started pouting about the Brothers(with whom he is associated). Lookin at the sizes of property he’s making in the area of his office premises he’ll over ride the established politician in that area. I waited for nearly for a month thinking that u have taken a holiday. Only lately realising that u r not associated with VK. Though missing ur articles o paper. Happy to c them on the net.

    All the best.

  19. Praveen says:

    Hi Pratap,

    I am a continues reader of your articles. I have read articles of RB too. No doubt both of you are good writers. But, it looks that RB is not able to digest your growth as a good writer in Kannada Journalism. Also, i can clearly see his double standards on many ocassions.

    A person was required to counter RB. I wish you all the very best in this battle. Thrash that fellow.

    Praveen

    HI… GOOD MORNING PRATAP SIR GUJARAT STATE TARA NAMMA STATE AAGODU YAVAGA SIR

  24. SIR U PLZ COME DAILY IN SUVARNA NEWS 24/7 I WAITING FOR UR PROGRAMME

  25. sudha g k says:

    sir,
    At present, there is a huge shortage of straight forward writers in the media, to some extent that gap was filled up by people like you,VB,SLB, papu etc. we kanndiga are, in that sense we are lucky. In our neighboring states people dont have such writers nor the public has got the taste for it.
    you don’t have to worry about such elements whose job is to find flaws in only Hindus and Hindu religious heads, the elements who don’t have any guts to tell the truth of other religions, what they can do to you?.
    I agree that there are many people over there to oppose you but are there any one who can challenge your views and facts? truth cannot be challenged.
    the people who supports persons like teesta setalvad, what sort of social concern we can expect from them?
    I saw one of your fans expressing concerns that brahmins are targeting you. I dont know what sort of brahmin is RB is, by virtue of what, by birth, by practice, by culture, by values?. i dont think he fits any one of these.i too belongs to brahmin community, iam proud fan of you. rather than diluting the issue with bringing subcastes here, we should unitedly say that we are hindus.
    we subscribed kannada prabha once we came to know that you are writing there.
    when honesty and truth are with you,then you dont have to fight for success, infact sucess will find you. I think the comment has become big enough that i shold stop here. thank you and all the best, we are with you.

  26. Kamalesh Jain says:

    Hi Pratap,

    Why can’t you join politics, Because todays politics needs people like you.

    People use to say politics is a dirty game, But what i believe is ” Politics is not a dirty game, but players are dirty”

    Please think over it.

    we are always with yu brother:)
    not just a dialogue i mean t..

  29. Praveen says:

    Hi Pratap,

    Quite honestly, I feel lucky enough to read ur articles. They are real eye openers.

    There is a popular Kannada proverb – “SegaNi ge kall esidare, sidiyod mukhakke”.

    RB is a jerk, alot of people know it. He’z js trying to achieve his personal benefit by targeting you. Better don’t entertain him.

    M saying it bcoz I see alot of good folks getting their image tarnished by fighting with some dirty a$$ (you know it better). Dont let it happen to you.

    You have taken the standards of journalism to a new level. Dont let any of your personal issues blur that.

    Always look forward to your writings.

  35. Pradeep says:

    Hi Pratap,
    RB is a real hypocrite. He’s someone who thinks like “Nammoornalli Naanobne Jaana” anno thara. I wonder how can he have such a huge fan following. Nam jana buddivantharaagabeku. Enanteera?
