Udupi, Nov 24: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Saha Sarkaryavaha Bhagaiah inaugurated the ‘Hindu Vaibhava’, a religio-cultural exhibition last evening as part of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad’s Dharma Sansad being held in Udupi from 24 to 26.

Meanwhile, the Department of Public Instruction (DPI), which had issued an order to all primary and high schools to make arrangements to take students to the expo, has withdrawn it after the controversy it generated. 

In its November 15 circular the DPI had asked the heads of primary and high schools to make arrangements to send their students to the exhibition because “it showcases our heritage and culture and the glory of our nation. As per the organisers, there will be over 100 stalls at the exhibition”.

Sources in the department said the directive was issued after the president of the Udupi Zilla Panchayat, Dinakar Babu, who belongs to the Bharatiya Janata Party, sent a note to the department about the exhibition.

Meanwhile, there was opposition to the circular. The district unit of the Campus Front of India, on November 22, questioned the circular and threatened a protest. Deputy Director of Public Instruction Sheshashayana on Thursday clarified that the circular was withdrawn as there was opposition to it.

Who this Dinkar Babu is?  Is he DC or Presesident and CM of Karnataka.  If he is so interested let him call all his family members for the exhibition.  Why is he trying to drag his idea in the minds of school children.   He has opposed Tipu sultan who sacrificed his life for our land.  shame on you Mr.   Try to be kannadiga first.

Bengaluru, May 26: After Yogi Adityanath said that no state can take manpower from Uttar Pradesh without his government's permission, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president DK Shivakumar on Tuesday termed the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister's move as "unconstitutional" and "against the right to freedom of movement."

"Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's move to restrict hiring people of Uttar Pradesh is unconstitutional and goes against the right to freedom of movement. Mr Yogi, please note that UP is not the private property of your govt. The people of Uttar Pradesh don't need your government's permission to work anywhere in India," Shivakumar tweeted.

"Mr Yogi doesn't understand the basic rules of governance in a democracy. Such actions lack common sense and will only make the people of Uttar Pradesh suffer more. When it's convenient for BJP, it's One Nation, when it's not, it's different states and different people. Heights of hypocrisy," he added.

Adityanath had on Monday said that the state government will provide social security and insurance to labourers and no state can take manpower from Uttar Pradesh without his government's permission.

"If any state wants manpower, they cannot take our people from the state without our permission as there were reports of misbehaviour with them in other states. We are taking full responsibility for labourers' social security. We will provide every kind of security to them including insurance. Wherever they will go, we will always stand by them," Yogi said.

The Chief Minister said that skill mapping is being done in Uttar Pradesh and a commission will be set up for labourers to ensure employment for them.

On Sunday, Adityanath had ordered the formation of a 'Migration Commission' for the purpose of providing the workers, who have returned to the state during the lockdown phase, with employment suited to their skills.
