Mangaluru, Oct 15: The State government has cleared a Rs 198-crore drinking water project proposal for Ullal, said Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy.

Speaking after launching the Brand Mangaluru campaign and a village camp programme mooted by the Dakshina Kannada Working Journalists Union, he said that the city has the potential to grow on a par with Bengaluru in terms of economic activity and development.

He said that many youngsters from the coastal belt work hard in cities and towns both within and outside the country. They contribute to the economic growth of those cities, but if the resources available in the coastal belt are made use of properly, they could stay back for the development of the coastal region. Migration should be minimised, he said.

The Chief Minister appealed to parties and organisations in the coastal area not to divide society. Once elections are over, everyone should unite and work like a family for the growth of the region, he said.

Let police break her bones; won’t approach lawyers for her bail: Amulya’s father

News Network

February 21,2020

Chikkamgaluru, Feb 21: Wazi Noronha, aka, Vojald, the father of Amulya Leona Noronha, who lives in Koppa taluk of Chickmagalur district has said that he was shocked by his daughter’s pro-Pakistan slogans.

“Let her rot in jail. I don’t mind if police break her bones, I don’t support what she said and I will not approach lawyers for her bail. She has committed a grave mistake,” he said.

Amulya, a 19-year-old student activist, was booked for sedition yesterday after she raised ‘Long Live Pakistan’ slogans at a CAA-NRC rally. A visibly embarrassed Asaduddin Owaisi, AIMIM chief and MP tried to snatch the mic away from her and slammed her. Karnataka Police have registered a case under IPC Section 124A (Offence of sedition) against Amulya.

Mr. Wazi, who owns a two-acre areca plantation and runs a poultry farm, said he would not make any attempts to get her bail. “Let the law take its course. I cannot approve of her statement,” he said.

He said he had cautioned his daughter against getting involved in protests. “I told her to complete studies first and later she could fight for poor people. But what she said yesterday is not acceptable. I don’t know what made her so. I hope a probe would bring out who prompted her to make such statements,” he said.

Mr. Wazi also admitted that he was associated with BJP and had worked for saffronite leaders like Shobha Karandlaje and D N Jeevaraj.
