Mangalore, July 24: A two-day convention of indigenous communities in the State, which concluded here on Monday, provided a platform to highlight the sorry state of residential schools for tribal children in the State.


The meet organized under the banner of Karnataka Rajya Moola Budakattu Samudayagala Samavesha discussed the problems faced by the residential schools in Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, Madikeri, Mysore and Hassan districts.


Manoj, a Koraga community member, pointed out that the students of one such school in Angadi Halli in Mysore were made to use the same glass in the toilet as well as for drinking purpose. Besides, the toilets did not have mugs and only two buckets of water was available for four toilets.


It was also pointed out that the teachers start classes only after September and the first three months of the academic year goes waste every year.


Hoovuraj from Hassan, speaking at the meet, said that the social welfare department officials only visit residential schools to monitor food and lamented that the children are sent to school to get quality education and not just food.


Gauri, Koraga community member from Kundapur, said that since the school was situated near a public school in town, very few students enrolled and the effort of the government has become a complete waste. Hunsur resident Raju, Hasalur community member Ramamurthy from Shimoga also poured out their woes.


Rajendra, a Soliga community member said that the addition of the Valmiki Nayaka community under the tribals list was a major problem to the other 12 tribal communities. He said the Valmiki Nayaka community fared better compared to other tribals in education and economic status.


Meanhwile, the convention decided to celebrate Adivasi Day on August 9 and the government will be urged to improve the status of education, healthcare and solve the land rights issues of the tribals of the State, said a participant.

Bengaluru, Jul 23: The Siddi community in Karnataka got its first lawmaker as Governor Vajubhai Vala nominated five persons, including Shantharama Budna Siddi, to the Karnataka Legislative Council on Wednesday.

Shantharama Siddi had been working as a social worker and was a post holder at the Vanavasi Kalyan Prakalpa, a tribal welfare initiative of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).

The Siddis, an ethnic group in India, are said to have descended from the people of the East African region. They are included in the list of Scheduled Tribes (ST) in Karnataka.

Apart from the Shantharama, the inclusion of CP Yogishwar, who had left Congress to join BJP in 2017 but failed to retain his seat in the 2018 Assembly polls, is also considered as a big decision.

Adagur H Vishwanath, another former JDS leader, who had quit his party and joined BJP but failed to retain his seat has also caught the attention of the people.

Further, Governor Vala has nominated Talwar Sabanna and Bharathi Shetty to the Upper House in the state.

Kalaburgi, May 27: Karnataka's Kalaburgi district recorded a maximum temperature of 44 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, as per information provided by the India Meteorological Department (IMD).

In light of the increasing mercury levels, people here were seen consuming sugarcane juice and cold drinks to beat the heat. Animals and birds could also be seen searching for water for relief from the scorching sun.

Locals of the area requested the district administration to take necessary actions such as spraying water on roads, in order to bring down the temperatures.

"We are facing huge heat waves in this district from the past two days, and even the temperature is around 44 to 45 degrees on a daily basis. So, it is a very alarming situation in Kalaburgi. When we move around the city, we are unable to find water and fresh fruit juice, and even if fresh juice is available, we are afraid of getting infected by COVID-19," said one local.

"If we carry cold water, it gets warm within half an hour, and gets unfit for drinking, and it is tough for us. I request the district administration to look into this matter and do the needful such as spraying water on the roads, etc. for slightest relief," he added.
