To add to the colours to the event a musical Treat by the well known Praveen Godkhindi, who is also an alumni is being arranged which is followed by other cultural program and dinner. To make the mega event even more successful the organisers request the SDMites from around the world to come forward and register and enjoy the togetherness across batches under the umbrella of SDMites.

It is time of the year when SDM (Shri Dharmasthala MAnjunatheshwara) college of engineering and Technology, Dharwad, Alumni Middle East Chapter has decided to bathe in the surreal reincarnation of the impeccable past of their college days with the SDMites from around the world and rejoin in the ride of the past. So, the SDMites have started scheduling their journey of memories in search of the roots - Back to the Roots and relive the good old but golden days.

As Henry Ford said “Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success,” this Global SDMites meet wouldn’t have been possible without the earlier executive committees of coming together over the years and laying the foundation and milestones of the SDM Middle east chapter, thereby it’s momentous to acknowledge all the energies and sweat of their executive days.

Since its inception in 2009 the SDM Alumni Middle East Chapter has echoed in action sticking to the values and the principles of the SDM Institution. The word ‘Dharma’ traditionally means ritual, duty, righteousness and alms and touching the lives of people with a transformational directness that is unique. Taking these values ahead in practice the alumni have not only came together for fun in a foreign land but also added value to the togetherness with always initiating support towards the various social cause and turning the wishes into reality .

The activities included supporting the social cause, honouring the teachers and more over mentoring and supporting the new SDMites who would join them in Middle East. In this short span the group has initiated mega actions from organizing the first Middle East meet to the current first Global Middle East meet in the month of November.

Thiruvananthapuram, Apr 11: The effective handling of Covid-19 pandemic by the Kerala Government has received a big endorsement in the International media with the latest being a report in Washington Post which suggests that the State’s success could prove instructive to the entire country.

The Washington Post quoted Kerala Health Minister K K Shailaja Teacher as saying “We hoped for the best but planned for the worst. Now, the curve has flattened, but we cannot predict what will happen next week.”

"The Minister said six states had reached out to Kerala for advice. She, however, noted that it might not be easy to replicate Kerala’s lessons elsewhere," according to the Minister's office quoting the report here on Saturday.

Mumbai, Feb 2: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Sunday slammed the BJP-led central government on the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and said that the new law only serves the objectives of the Sangh Parivar of turning India into a Hindu Rashtra.

He said that in order to achieve their objectives, the "communal elements" are trying to divide India's people through the same strategy as employed by the British colonisers in the past.

Lauding people in Mumbai for their protests against CAA, the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and the National Population Register (NPR), the Kerala chief minister also outlined three reasons for his government's decision to reject the Citizenship Amendment Act.

"Over the last several weeks, Mumbai citizens made clear their unyielding opposition to efforts made by Hindutva elements to tear apart the secular fabric of our society. I express solidarity with struggles being made across the city in defence of secularism and the Indian Constitution," Vijayan said at an event here.

The chief minister was addressing the 'Mumbai Collective' here on the topic of 'National struggle against communalism'.

"The government of Kerala is acting as per the Constitution. Like Kerala, other states are also looking at CAA as against the fundamentals of the Constitution. It (CAA) violates basic human rights and is divisive and deeply discriminatory," CM Vijayan said, adding that the new citizenship law only furthers the Sangh Parivar's objective of creating a Hindu Rashtra.

He said the CAA needs to be rejected for three basic reasons.

"First, it is against the letter and spirit of our Constitution. Secondly, it is highly discriminatory and violative of human rights. Thirdly, it seeks to impose philosophy of Sangh Parivar with its mission of Hindu Rashtra," the chief minister said.

Vijayan also participated in the human chain organised by Left Democratic Front (LDF) against CAA and NRC and said that "the law is a threat to the secularism of this country".

The newly enacted law is facing stiff opposition across the country with several non-NDA states including Kerala, West Bengal, Rajasthan and Punjab refusing to implement it.

Rajasthan, Kerala and Punjab have passed resolutions against the recently amended law in their respective state Assemblies.

The CAA grants citizenship to Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Parsis, Buddhists and Christians fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh and who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.
