Congress-ruled Karnataka is third most communally sensitive state in India?

Bengaluru, Sep 4: Karnataka, which was once known as one of the peaceful states in India, is currently the third most communally sensitive state in country after Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, according to the union ministry of home affairs.

1saffron Data collected by the ministry show that Congress-ruled Karnataka has seen 291 incidents of communal clashes that left 19 dead and 865 injured from 2013 to May 2016. Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and Gujarat follow Karnataka.

However, home ministry of Karnataka has rejected the perspective of union home ministry, which only considered the reported cases of communal clashes including minor ones and ignored the severity of some communal attacks reported in BJP ruled states.

Karnataka home minister G Parameshwara believes that this south Indian state is still known for peace and tranquillity. “There have been stray communal incidents in some parts of the state, but no single incident has ever turned into a catastrophe. Karnataka is not prone to communal violence," he said.

A senior Congress leader told Coastaldigest.com on condition of anonymity that communal forces backed by ruling party of India (Bharatiya Janata Party) have played key roles in most of the communal clashes reported in Karnataka. “They are trying to turn Karnataka into a communal tinderbox for political gains,” he said.

Additional director general of police (law and order) Alok Mohan highlighted the state's low or zero tolerance to communal incidents to say the numbers don't reflect the ground situation.

"In case of a communal incident, we first book a case and take immediate action to prevent outbreak of violence. This is why communal tension lasts barely a couple of hours in Karnataka. In many parts of the country, tension prevails for several days," he said.

With the stage getting ready for the 2018 assembly polls, political observers warn of a spike in communal incidents in the next two years.

Universities must conduct backlog exams for final semester students: Karnataka Dy CM

News Network

August 4,2020

Bengaluru, Aug 4: With preparations underway for conducting exams for the final semester/ year students in the state, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr CN Ashwathnarayan on Monday directed the respective universities to conduct exams for the backlog papers as well.

"In the wake of COVID-19, it has been decided to hold exams only for the students of final semester/year courses. It has come to our notice that some universities have decided against conducting exams for final year students who have a backlog to clear from previous semesters. This is unpardonable," the Deputy Chief Minister said.

"Our intention is to see that the final year students finish their course. In the present situation, conducting only final semester exams won't help. We have to help the students in clearing their backlogs," added Ashwathnarayan, directing all universities to compulsorily conduct these exams.

Meanwhile, Ashwathnarayan thanked the staff and officials of various government departments who were responsible for successfully conducting the CET exams even amidst the difficult situation in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic.

"In all, 1,94,419 students had registered for the CET exams, of which 1,75,428 wrote the exams. The percentage of students who took up the exams this year was equivalent to that of the previous years, in normal times," the DCM informed.

"After we successfully conducted the exams, Arunachal Pradesh is going to conduct the Public Service Commission exams on the lines of how we successfully conducted the exams. Likewise, even our KPSC has said it will conduct the exams. We must appreciate the good work of the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA), which has set an example for others," Ashwathnarayan said.

The deputy chief minister said that 33 colleges in various districts across the state faced shortage of land and that it is the responsibility of the District Commissioners (DCs) to get the lands sanctioned for all these colleges.
In Bagalkot district alone land has not been sanctioned for six degree colleges, he said.

Reacting to this, Bagalkot DC Captain Rajendra assured to look into the matter as soon as he receives the proposal from department officials.

"Similarly, there is shortage of land for five Diploma colleges and 28 ITI colleges in different parts of the state. The DCs must immediately pay attention to this. Once they get the land, buildings will come up within no time," the Karnataka deputy chief minister said.
