April 23, 2016

moral Manaluru, Apr 23: Repeated incidents of immoral policing are a major hurdle in the growth of tourism sector in Dakshina Kannada district, according to Deputy Commissioner AB Ibrahim.

He was delivering a lecture on Local governance and sustainable development of Dakshina Kannada' at the National Institute of Technology – Karnataka (NIT-K) at Surathkal on Friday.

Calling upon the people in Dakshina Kannada to change their attitude and mindset, Mr Ibrahim said that said that groups and individuals who indulged in “immoral policing” in the district should be taken head on.

“If men and women from different religions cannot move together leisurely in the city and at beaches and tourist places, then how can we promote tourism here,” asked the DC.

Mr. Ibrahim said that major industries were suited for tier-II cities as software companies focus on metropolitan cities. But in tier-II cities, major industries face opposition from people in matters related to environmental issues.
