January 18, 2014

Mangalore, Jan 18: Stressing on the need for economic development in Dakshina Kannada, CEO of Milkroute, Bangalore Harsha Moily said that it was important to have progressive political leadership, dynamic leadership, an efficient social sector and communal harmony in the district.

He was speaking on the topic 'Mangalore – Vision 2025' at a programme organised by Mangalore Management Association (MMA) and National Institute of Personnel Management (NIPM) at SDM Law College in the city on Friday.

“To impact the lives of roughly 2.2 million people, create prosperity in 354 villages, make productive use of 320 kms of coastline and 4.866 sq kms of undeveloped land and maintain the rich cultures and historic sites in Dakshina Kannada, we have to make the most of the resources available to make the district economically developed,” he said.

Six key pillars for economic development

He said that there were six strategic plans to act upon, for the realisation of the 'Vision 2025' for Mangalore city and the entire district, including achieving communal harmony, development of ports and fisheries sector, transformation of agriculture sectors, turning Mangalore into an IT hub, building physical and social infrastructure and implementation of government programmes.

It is critical to achieve communal harmony in the district, as high economic prosperity is possible only when there is a stable environment. It is also important to develop the ports and fisheries sector to enable creation of more jobs for youth. There should be focus on deployment of technology in agriculture and cultivation of crops such as paddy, arecanut, coconut and others with minimum water resources, he said.

“Mangalore has the potential to become an IT hub for which there should be increased pool of qualified manpower, power infrastructure and telecom services in the city. The district also needs to focus on increasing quality of primary and secondary schools, quality of healthcare and quality of roads. For effective implementation of governmental programmes, we need to strengthen gram panchayats and get rid of corruption at every level,” he said.

Vision statement

He said that his vision statement included the right to protection, participation in decision and policy-making and prosperity for every citizen in the district.

He also said that Mangalore had a lot of potential that was yet to be tapped, and the factor of utmost importance was the execution of the action plan.

Director of SDM PG Centre Dr Devaraj K made the presidential remarks.

Agencies

February 7,2020

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 7: Making a scathing attack on the Central government, Kerala Finance Minister Thomas Issac on Friday said the BJP-led NDA government was "strangulating" the southern state by denying funds.

Presenting the 2020-21 budget of the Pinarayi Vijayan led-LDF government, he alleged the centre has been "helping" corporates rather that the common man.

"The Centre has been strangulating Kerala by denying funds for the state and has been moving on a self-destructive path by corporate-friendly policies and privatisation. The GST implementation has not been beneficial for the state," he said.

"The government proposes 2.5 lakh water connections in the upcoming financial year. We will also construct one lakh houses under Life Mission," the finance minister said.

The budget has allocated Rs 90 crore for Pravasi Welfare Fund and the government proposes power projects with a capacity of 500 MW.

"The government proposes Kochi development plan with a fund of Rs 6,000 crore. The city will get an unified travel card and Metro project will be extended," Issac said.

The state government has increased all welfare pension funds by Rs 100, allotted Rs 40 crore to paddy farmers and Rs 10 crore for startups in the state.

The local self-governments have been allotted Rs five crore for waste management, Rs 20 crore has been set apart for 1,000 food stalls under hunger-free Kerala, where meals will be made available at Rs 25.
