Mangaluru, Nov 15: Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah today released a booklet highlighting the achievements of Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel after being elected to the parliament for the second time in 2014. 

The book titled Modiya Hadiyalli Naalkane Varsha (Fourth Year on Modi’s Path) was released in the presence of district BJP leaders at Ocean Pearl Hotel in the city. 

There was speculation that his visit was to plan strategies for next year’s Lok Sabha elections in Karnataka and neighbouring Kerala.

Mr Shah, who landed at Mangaluru International Airport at around 8:30 p.m. last night arrived at the Akhil Bharatiya Karya Vibhag Pracharak Varg of the RSS at Sanghaniketan, its local headquarters at Mannagudda, late in the evening. 

Cow slaughter, Sabarimala shrine row and Ram temple are some of the issues which were reportedly discussed at a meeting in the presence of Amit Shah on last night. With the BJP sweeping the 2018 Assembly elections in six coastal and Malnad districts in Karnataka, and the party now eyeing the Sabarimala issue in the neighbouring Kerala, Mr. Shah’s visit assumed significance. 

The BJP in Kerala had launched its six-day Sabarimala Rath Yatra from neighbouring Kasaragod to Pathanamthitta on November 8. The yatra flagged off by State BJP chief B.S. Yeddyurappa and led by Kerala BJP State president P.S. Sreedharan Pillai ended on Tuesday. 

About 250 full-time RSS volunteers from Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra are participating in a ‘refresher course’, from November 11, being held under the leadership of Suresh ‘Bhaiyajji’ Joshi, sarkaryavah (national general secretary) of the RSS.

Hassan, Feb 9: Accusing the Centre for treating Karnataka as its enemy Former Minister and Congress leader UT Khader on Saturday said that the state did not get support from the Centre on the Mahadayi issue and flood relief and even the Union Budget.

Speaking to the media here, he said that the state has elected 25 BJP Lok Sabha members. Three from the state were Ministers in the Union Cabinet and another MP has been appointed president of the party’s state unit.

'None of them have spoken about the injustice done to the state in the budget. The budget document announced Rs 18,600 crore for the suburban railway in Bengaluru. But, ultimately the amount earmarked for the project is only Rs 1 crore. How can any BJP leader justify this?', the Congress leader wondered.

Mangaluru, JuJ 2: Dr Shivaram Karanth Biological Park at Pilikula, which was recently reopened after covid-19 lockdown, will again be shut from July 4 to 31. 

“The authorities have decided to close the park for visitors from July 4 to July 31 due to the rapid increase of the spread of coronavirus in Dakshina Kannada,” said, Jayaprakash Bhandary, director of the Park.

Mr Bhandary said that after the reopening of the Park, the number of visitors has drastically decreased due to corona scare. 

“There are around 100 staff and over 30 caretakers at the zoo. After closing the zoo, only essential staff will come to the zoo take care of the animals. We are planning to reopen it for visitors on August 1,” he said.

Bengaluru, Jul 31: The Karnataka government on Wednesday put on hold a controversial proposal to drop certain chapters, including on Islam, Christianity, Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali, from social science textbooks to reduce the 2020-21 syllabi for students in classes 1-10.

Citing the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruption caused to the academic calendar of the year, the government had earlier dropped the chapter on Tipu Sultan and Hyder Ali from the Class 7 social science textbook, saying chapters on Tipu Sultan have been retained in the Class 6 and 10 textbooks.

The move did not go down well with the opposition, which saw certain ulterior motives behind the decision.

Apparently under sharp criticism, the Department of Public Instruction issued a new notification on Wednesday "on the directions of the Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar".

There is a delay in opening the schools during the academic year 2020-21 due to COVID-19 pandemic, said the latest order.

In this context, the order said, chapters were dropped to fit in 120 days of the academic year for classes 1 to 10 and the same was published in the department's website.

"However, on the directions of the Minister for Primary and Secondary Education, the decision to drop certain chapters has been put on hold. A review will be done following which the deleted chapters will be uploaded in the website," the order read.

Earlier in the day, Mr Kumar had issued a statement, saying that the decision to truncate the syllabus has not been finalised yet. He also made it clear that his department would not remove chapters unnecessarily.

Former chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah had attacked the government on the issue.

"The government, which has failed to control the spread of coronavirus, is using it as an opportunity to push its clandestine agenda of saffronising the textbooks," Siddaramaiah tweeted.
