Dharmasthala, June 22: A Memorandum of Understanding will be signed between the Dharmasthala Trust and the Union Rural Development Ministry, to look after Rural Self-employment Training Institutes (RSETI) managed by the Union government.

During the tri-decennial celebrations programme of Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala Rural Development Project (SKDRDP) at Dharmasthala on Friday, Union Minister for Rural Development Jairam Ramesh requested Dharmadhikari Dr D Veerendra Heggade to take over the 527 RSETIs opened by the Ministry, across the nation.

Dharma_10 Expressing dissatisfaction over the functioning of the institutes set up a year ago, he asked the Dharmasthala Trust to manage them.

“The Finance Ministry will provide the necessary finance for these institutes which have been set up at a cost of Rs one crore each. While the Rural Development Ministry will provide moral support, the banks will provide the manpower and the Dharmasthala Trust should provide management assistance,” he requested.

Agreeing in principle to the proposal, Dr Heggade said that as per the MoU, the Trust will have to achieve a success rate of 40 per cent in the first year, 50 per cent in second year and 70 per cent in the third year.

He said the Trust will manage these institutes under the monitoring cell set up by the Ministry which will also be looked after by the Dharmasthala Trust. Earlier, speaking with mediapersons, Jairam Ramesh insisted upon declaring Kuduremukh National Park atTiger Reserve area.

It is of great necessity to declare the Park as a Tiger Reserve, specially in the backdrop of growing naxal menace. The project demands the eviction of the families from the forest. As many as 14,000 families reside in the forest.

Among them, 600 applications from the families willing to come out of the forest had been pending for the last ten years. The rehabilitated families will be provided with minimum a compensation of Rs 10 lakh each. However, there will not be any forceful eviction. The process will be carried out in a most democratic way, he said

Flight chartered by ‘Expertise’ repatriates stranded Saudi Kannadigas to Mangaluru along with employees

June 11,2020

Mangaluru, June 11: The Saudi Arabia based Expertise Contracting Company, which is repatriating its employees to India and other countries, today allocated around 90 seats of one of its chartered flights to Kannadigas stranded in Saudi Arabia.

The Gulf Air flight took off with around 175 passengers on board from Dammam International Airport around noon local time. It is expected to land at Mangaluru International Airport at around 7 p.m. Indian time.

In fact the company had chartered the flights only to repatriate its employees. However, due to the lack of special flights under Vande Bharati Mission, the company decided to help the other stranded Kannadigas in Saudi Arabia, who had approached Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum for help.

A company official said that around 2,000 employees from various countries in the Indian subcontinent are being repatriated, of which 1,665 are Indians. Already hundreds of them have reached India, and hundreds are still waiting for repatriation.

“We are grateful to Expertise for allowing to travel in the flight which the company had chartered to repatriate its own employees,” said one of the passengers before boarding the flight at the airport.

Director of Expertise, KS Shaikh said the 20-year-old Expertise group, one of the largest conglomerates in the GCC operating in petrochemical and heavy equipment sectors, has more than 10,000 employees and their family members in the Gulf, mainly in Jubail, one of the largest industrial cities.

Of these, the company has chosen over 2,000 employees for the covid-related repatriations considering various emergencies. He said 12 chartered flights have been engaged to carry out the repatriation exercise to the Indian subcontinent.
