The eco friendly, low cost, bud' shaped pointed shell structure was constructed without using steel and concrete which can withstand all types of climatic conditions was executed under the advice of Dr. K S Jagadish, Professor Emeritus, IISc Bengaluru and under the guidance of Prof. Subramanya Bhat P of SSE Mukka.

tariq1Mr. Thariq Aziz welcomed the dignitaries and briefed about his M.Tech project. The pointed, the shell structure has about 30 feet perimeter, 9 feet height, and constructed by using 4 inch thick brick wall. The structure did not deform even after applying a load of 2,000 kg.

He said that by adopting this construction technique, around 30-40% basic construction materials can be saved which in turn help in conservation of energy. This type of structure can be constructed at religious places, tourism projects, resorts, rehabilitation and housing projects. Steering and tilting rod technology was developed and incorporated in this project which can rotate 360 degrees to maintain same radius at different levels which helps in maintaining bud' shaped pointed shell and also ease in construction.

Construction of bud' shape using concrete is a tedious job, since it includes sloping formwork and curved reinforcements. Hence the masonry construction of this nature can be a good alternate to RCC which bears good strength and also act as thermal insulator, he said.

Mr Mohiuddin Bava appreciated the project and said that this project is proved to be green construction as very less quantity of cement is consumed, and no steel and concrete. MLA assured that he will provide all necessary support and assistance from the state government to motivate the research attitude among students community of Srinivas School of Engineering.

Er Rajendra Kalbhavi – Project Director of DK Nirmithi Kendra; Dr. K S Babu Narayan – Coordinator of DK Nirmithi Kendra; Dr. Subhash Yaragal – Professor, Dept. of Civil Engg, NITK Surathkal; Dr. Shreeprakash B – Principal, Srinivas School of Engineering; Dr.Ramakrishna Hegde – Vice Principal; Prof. Subramanya Bhat P – Project Guide; Prof. Shrinath Rao K and Ms. Aneesha Thodthillaya of Srinivas School of Engineering; Er Sharat of DK Nirmithi Kendra; Mr. T Habeeb – Project Coordinator, Boskalis Westminister UK; Er Mohammed Shameer – Project Engineer, Saudi Oger Ltd. were present.

Thanks alot each and every one for your valuable comments and best wishes to me. Regarding the ogival shell it can be constructed to any diameter and height. It is not only feasible to construct in religious centers it can also be designed to a independent houses, restaurants, resorts, office, a coffee shop etc. And when it comes to having second floor we can construct a loft and make use of the ample space.

Bengaluru, May 23: It was a stampede-like situation near Palace Grounds in Bengaluru on Saturday afternoon. The incident took place after hundreds of migrants gathered and jostled to gain entry. The situation raises concerns as no social distancing norms were followed.

According to Chetan Singh Rathore, DCP Central, the reason behind the stampede-like situation was an en masse message. "What we heard was that an en masse message has been conveyed to the people of Manipur and Odisha that they would be able to go home on trains on Saturday. The message did not consider the capacity of the train which is only 1500 seating capacity for Manipur train and 1500 for Odisha train," he told media.

Singh further added, "But the people gathered were around 3000 in number for the Manipur train and 5000 for the Odisha train. Passengers with tickets and requisites were allowed to travel while others were asked to return home and wait for their turn to travel back home."

The state of Karnataka has eased lockdown restrictions across, allowing state transport services to run. Lately, the government has been running special Shramik trains from Karnataka to ferry migrant workers back to their hometowns.

New Delhi, Feb 6: BJP MP Tejaswi Surya said on Wednesday that the majority community has to remain vigilant or Mughal rule will return to the country, as he slammed the anti-CAA protest at Shaheen Bagh.

He was participating in the debate on Motion of Thanks on the President's Address in Lok Sabha.

Referring to the ongoing protest at Shaheen Bagh against the Citizenship Amendment Act, he said, "Unless majority community remains vigilant, the days of Mughal Raj may not be far away."

Surya also praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for resolving several critical issues which had been pending for several decades.

The CAA, he said, was aimed at resolving the issues emanating from Partition and added, "The new India cannot to built without healing the wounds of the past."

He said that the CAA was about giving citizenship to persecuted minorities in Pakistan, Bangaladesh and Afghanistan and not for taking away anyone's citizenship.

Under the leadership of Modi, Surya said, several issues of the past have seen closure. These include abrogation of Article 370, construction of Ram temple, Bodo problems and abolition of Triple Talaq.

K Sudhakaran (Cong) said that a time when the economy was going through its worst phase and unemployment was high, the President in his speech talked about making India a USD 5 trillion economy by 2024.

On the comments of the government functionaries that fundamentals of the economy are strong, he said the same expression was used by the then US President George Bush, days before the collapse of the America's iconic investment banker Lehman Brothers.

Not only that, Sudhakaran said even before the Great Depression, the then US President used to say that fundamentals of their economy were strong.

Anupriya Patel (Apna Dal) demanded that the government set up All India Judicial Services Commission to ensure representation of the backward community in the judiciary.

Khagen Murmu (BJP) regretted that West Bengal government was not implementing the welfare schemes of the Centre in the state.

Badruddin Ajmal (AIUDF) said that people of all communities have fought for freedom of the country and it would be incorrect to declare everyone opposing the government's policies as 'gaddar' (traitor).

He said that the government should talk to people protesting against the CAA at Shaheen Bagh and other places, and explain the provisions to them.

Shrirang Appa Barne (Shiv Sena) demanded that the ruling party fulfil all promises it had made to the people of the country.

He regretted that although the government promised to double the income of farmers by 2022, farmers were still committing suicide.

Bengaluru, Mar 3: Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu has said that a medical team is monitoring the health condition of all those people who had stayed with the coronavirus-hit techie who is admitted to a hospital in Hyderabad.

The first confirmed case of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in Telangana was reported from Hyderabad on Monday where a man from Bengaluru, who recently returned from Dubai, tested positive for the virus.

"It has come to our knowledge that the coronavirus-hit person in Hyderabad had gone from Bengaluru. Therefore, all the members in the house where he had stayed here have been identified and are under watch," Mr Sriramulu tweeted on late Monday night.

The minister said he has convened a meeting with the additional chief secretary, commissioner and other senior officials of the health department today.

"Our government has initiated all the measures to prevent the spread of this virus," the minister said.

It is learnt that the 24-year-old techie had not contracted it when he was in Bengaluru but all precautionary measures have been taken.

The software engineer, who works in Bengaluru, had worked with people from Hong Kong in Dubai last month where he is suspected to have contracted the virus, Telangana health minister E Rajender told reporters in Hyderabad.

The man reached Bengaluru on February 19/20 and later went to Hyderabad in a bus.

He took treatment for fever after coming to Hyderabad and was admitted to a private super speciality hospital in the city. As it did not subside, he came to the state-run Gandhi hospital on Sunday evening, Mr Rajender said.
