online Speaking to presspersons here on Wednesday, he said that those who have been issued an election photo identity card can verify if their names are found on the voters' list by visiting the website of the Chief Election Officer, Bangalore, on www.ceokarnataka.kar.nic.in

Additional DC Dayanand said that using the EPIC ID card number, one can verify whether their names are found in the voters' list.

If there was no EPIC ID card number, then one can verify the names by writing the name, father's name, and constituency name.

Taking note of several complaints from people that their names did not figure in the voters' list in the recently concluded elections to urban local bodies, the DC said mere possessing of EPIC is no guarantee that one can vote in elections. The final voters' list for Dakshina Kannada district has been published. “People have to verify if their names figure in the latest list.

Voters can also do so at the respective offices of the block level officer, village accountants, taluk offices, offices of the assistant commissioner and Mangalore City Corporation,” he added.

In case the names of voters missing from the list, people can get in touch with the respective offices and seek inclusion of their names using form 6 under the continuous updation of the voters' list.

The citizens can also register their name online in the chief election officer's website, he said and added that names can be included in the voters' list till the submission of nominations for the coming Assembly elections.

Zilla Panchayat CEO Dr K N Vijayaprakash said that awareness drive will be held across the districts. A campaign to motivate the citizens especially youth and women will be organised in the district. Handbills will be distributed in colleges, hostels, educational institutions, hospitals, malls, government offices, bus shelters to create awareness among the general public. Stickers with slogans on the need to exercise their franchise will be pasted on the buses and autorickshaws.

Theatres will be asked to show the slide on the need for exercising franchise and enrolling their names in the voters' list.

The DC said that as all the citizens can not visit the website to verify their names in the voters' list, a help desk will be started in every gram panchayat, TMCs, town panchayat, tahsildar's office and Mangalore City Corporation. The official in charge of the help desk will guide the citiznes.

Karnataka govt issues guidelines for Eid al-Adha

coastaldigest.com news network

July 26,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 26: The government of Karnataka has urged the Muslims to celebrate Eid al-Adha in a simple manner and follow all guidelines amid mounting cases of covid-19.

The festival, also known as Bakrid, will be celebrated on July 31 in coastal districts of Karnataka and on August 1 in other parts of Karnataka.

In an order, A B Ibrahim, secretary of the department of minority welfare, Hajj and Waqf has prohibited offering Eid prayers in open grounds (Eidgahs) in the wake of pandemic.

Eid prayers can be offered in mosques by following all the necessary precautionary measures including maintaining physical distance. The congregation should not exceed 50 worshippers. If they number exceeds, they should be divided into three groups.

However, except for mosques, no other places should be used for offering congregational prayer.

Besides, all those who attend Eid prayers at mosque should compulsorily wear face masks. Entry is banned for people who are above the age of 60 years and below the age of 10. At least six feet distance needs to be maintained while offering prayer.

Thermal scanning needs to be done before entering the mosque. Hands need to be washed in soap or sanitizer. No one should touch the holy books in the mosque. Hand shaking and embracing to greet will also not be allowed. If any strangers are seen, their movement should be monitored.

Family of 11 tests positive for corona in Hosapete, Karnataka

News Network

April 18,2020

Ballari, Apr 18: Hosapete town in Ballari district of Karnataka gasped in disbelief as it turned out that 11 members of one single family are positive for the coronavirus.

The whole town has been declared a containment zone and is being surveilled 24X7.

The family includes seven members whose tests returned positive today, three who tested Covid-19 positive on March 30 and one other member subsequently.

The seven who tested positive today had been negative when they were earlier tested along with the others.

They have all now been shifted to isolation wards at the District Hospital in Ballari.

Including this family of 11, Ballari has 13 positive cases so far, with one case each reported from Ballari and Siraguppa towns.

Startled by this sudden upsurge from Hosapete, the district administration has set up 16 fever clinics to screen people and six COVID care centres to treat positive cases. There are two dedicated COVID hospitals, one at Ballari and another at Torangallu in Sandur.

A team of psychological counsellors have been put on duty to provide support to the patients at the isolation centres.

Karnataka drops chapter on Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from Class 7 textbook

News Network

July 28,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 28: After the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) reduced the syllabi for Classes 9 to 12 due to COVID-19 pandemic, the Karnataka government has followed the suit. The Department of Public Instruction has omitted the chapters on legendary south Indian rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the textbooks of Class 7 in their attempt to reduce syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent.

The department, however, has decided to retain similar chapters on Tipu Sultan in 6th and 10th Classes, though the syllabus in text books for all classes from 1 to 10th has been trimmed.

The trimmed textbooks uploaded on the website of the Department of State Education Research and Training (DSERT) by Karnataka state Textbook Society revealed removal of chapters on Tipu Sultan for the seventh grade.

Justifying the decision, officials said, "students study similar chapters in Class 6 and more in the 10th grade." Yet another senior official from the Text Book Society said, "Trimming does not mean we have removed half of the syllabus from textbooks. It is only keeping in mind the repetition we have condensed the chapters. In case students study about a particular dynasty in higher grades, then the same had been removed from lower grades."

A few months ago, there was an uproar over dropping of content on Tipu Sultan and MLAs from the ruling BJP also demanded the same and petitioned to the Chief Minister. Even an expert committee led by Prof Baraguru Ramachandrappa suggested to not drop any content on the historic figure. However, the department still decided to drop lessons from one of the classes while keeping the syllabus short for the next 120 active academic days.

Earlier this month, a controversy had erupted over the CBSE's decision to omit topics like federalism, secularism, citizenship, etc while reducing the syllabus for Classes 9 to 12. The education board had issued a detailed clarification later, stating that topics claimed to be dropped "are either being covered by the rationalised syllabus or in the Alternative Academic Calendar of NCERT".

"The rationalisation of syllabus up to 30 per cent has been undertaken by the Board for nearly 190 subjects of class 9 to 12 for the academic session 2020-21 as a one-time measure only. The objective is to reduce the exam stress of students due to the prevailing health emergency situation and prevent learning gaps," it said.

Last week, the Congress in Uttar Pradesh expressed its concern over 'deliberate and systematic' deletions of chapters related to the freedom struggle and the party's role in it from the Class 10-12 syllabi of the Secondary Education Board.
