Instilling confidence into young minds and students Dr CN Manjunath, Director, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular sciences and Research, Bengaluru, advised them to avoid mobile phones.

“Mobile phone is one of the biggest hurdles to achieve the goals for younger generation. Even though mobile phone is a means of communication, the students are being addicted to this device,” he said suggesting a ban on mobile phone for students at least till they complete Class X.

He also warned against consumption of fast food. “Unscientific lifestyle and food habits have increased stress which in turn has resulted in the increase of cardiovascular diseases,” he lamented.

Former Indian cricketer Syed Mujtaba Hussain Kirmani, speaking on the occasion, applauded the service of TRF and said that the “real heroes are those who lift the underprivileged, deserving and needy”.

Calling upon the youth to work hard and constantly move towards their goals, he said: “There is a hero within every human being and we should recognise it.”

He also urged the youth not to ignore humanity and human values while perusing their goals. "Whatever your goals may be, it is important to be human being first,” he said adding that individuals should think broadly.

He said that people like Paralympic World Champion Malathi Holla and Tennis Player Prabhu, who are specially abled inspired not only special people but also others, with their yeoman service to humanity. They have come over their physical limitations to achieve great things in life, he added.

Babar Ali, said to be the youngest principal in the world, who started a school when he was just 16, was a centre of attraction in the event. Hailing from Murshidabad, one of the poorest districts of India located in West Bengal, he said that he love people of Karnataka too because they had helped him build a school.

He said that we should adopt good role models like Swami Vivekananda to be inspired by them. While calling upon the youth to work with commitment, dedication, he reminded them to cultivate love towards the less privileged and try to uplift them.

Syed Mohammed Beary, CMD, Bearys Group said that sacrifice is the other side of success. Leadership comes with clarity of mind, which comes with purity of heart.

IAS?Officer Mohammed Musharraf Ali Faruqui, Home of Hope, Bengaluru, Chairman T Raja and IISc, Bengaluru, Scientist, Shiva Kumar were present among others.

Mangaluru, June 21: The first ever repatriation flight from Saudi Arabia’s Dammam Karnataka’s Mangaluru under Vande Bharat Mission (VBM) today brought home around 165 stranded passengers. 

The IndiGo flight took off from Dammam International Airport at 11 a.m. (Saudi time) and landed at Mangaluru International Airport at 6:30 p.m.

The stranded passengers included pregnant women, senior citizens and those who are in need of emergency medical treatment are on board.

The passengers were screened at the Airport before being despatched for institutional quarantine in special buses. 

Even though a few charter flights arranged by a couple of NRI entrepreneurs have already repatriated hundreds of stranded people from Dammam to Mangaluru, the government of India had not operated any repatriation flight under VBM on this sector so far. 

Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum (SKHF), an NGO which came into existence to help the stranded Kannadigas in Saudi Arabia during covid-19 lockdown had been successful in persuading the government of India operate a flight on Dammam-Mangaluru sector under VBM. 

SKHF has also set up an online portal for those who were in need of emergency repatriation. In today’s flight around 100 passengers have obtained seats through SKHF.

Udupi, June 30: A girl who appeared for SSLC exams in three subjects tested positive for COVID-19 in Kundapur taluk of Udupi district today.

Sheshashayana Karinja, Deputy Director of Public Instruction (DDPI) said that the 15-year-old girl had a headache and her parents took her for testing and she had tested positive for COVID-19.

She will appear for the remaining three subjects during the supplementary exams in August.

The room where the girl appeared for the exam had been sanitised. But exams would not be held in that room. All precautions have been taken in that exam centre in Kundapur taluk, Mr. Karinja said.

The other 19 students will be allowed to write their exams as there was a distance of one metre between them and there was no contact between the students during the exams, Mr. Karinja added.

It is learned that a couple of months ago, a Mumbai returnee who recovered from COVID-19 had visited the girl’s house. However, it is not clear that she got an infection from the Mumbai returnee.

It could be recalled here that a student from Hejamadi in Udupi district who was preparing for the Science exam had tested positive two days back and she is currently being treated at a hospital.

Madikeri, Jan 5: Frequent attacks by Tigers on their cattle in South Kodagu region has left the dairy farmers a worried lot and causing concern for their life.

Several farmers have been rearing cows to supplement their income when low prices of pepper and coffee affect their earnings. At least 13 cows have fallen prey to Tigers in the months of November and December last year.

The Forest Department provides a compensation of Rs 10,000 if a cattle is killed by a tiger or in the attack. The compensation amount is meagre when it comes to the loss incurred by the farmers.

Though the Forest Department has submitted a proposal to increase the compensation amount to the government, no action has been initiated in this regard.
