Inaugurating the scholarship distribution programme organised by the UAE-based Bearys Cultural Forum (BCF) at Loyola Hall here on Sunday, Mr Bava said that the contribution of BCF for past 15 years in this regard is commendable.

Opining that the people of backward communities have today realised the importance of formal education, Mr Bava said that philanthropic organisations like BCF should continue to strive towards the upliftment of the community.

Delivering the keynote address B M Farooq, Chairman, Fiza Group of Companies, Bengaluru, said that organisations like BCF played a crucial role in improving the condition of Beary community, which has now understood the importance of education.

“Today more number of Muslim girls are perusing higher education and performing better compared to their male counterparts. This is a positive development. However, Muslim boys also should work hard,” he said.

Scholarships to 600 students

Scholarships were distributed among 600 college students of different courses from pre-university to post-graduation degrees. Besides, as many as nine students who did exceptionally well in SSLC and PUC exams this year and one sports achiever were presented the BCF Awards.

Like previous years wheel-chairs were handed over to the physically challenged and sewing machines to women from financially backward families.

B M Mumtaz Ali, patron of BCF welcomed the gathering. Ibrahim Kodijal, MUDA chairman, K Mohammed Haris, MD of Mukka Sea Food Industries Pvt Ltd, Dr A M Khan, professor and registrar (evaluation), Mangalore University, Fathaulla Saheb Tonse, MD, Barsha International Group, Satish Poojary, president Billawa Association, Dubai, Abdulla Madumoole, general secretary, BWF Abu Dhabi, M B Noor Mohammed Mulky, Hyder Parthipadi, Inayath Ali, M K Abdul Khader were present among others.

Earlier in the morning, a career guidance programme was organised for students. JR Lobo, MLA, Mangaluru South, inaugurated the session. Dr Kaup Mohammed, Dean of UAE London American City College, was the resource person. Udupi Khazi Ibrahim Musliyar Bekal offered dua.

Karnataka launches job portal connecting employers and job seekers

coastaldigest.com news network

June 30,2020

Bengaluru, Jun 30: In an attempt to tackle unemployment amidst covid-19 crisis, the Karnataka state government has launched a job portal connecting employers and job seekers.

The portal, 'Skill connect' ( https://skillconnect.kaushalkar.com / ) provides region-wise and sector-wise job listings. An interested candidate can register on the portal and either apply for jobs or can also seek skill training.

As on Monday, the portal has 25 registered companies with over 2000 jobs available in various sectors.

The portal works more or less on similar lines as that of any private job portal, except that those posting jobs and candidates searching for employment will have to register with the Skill Development Department.

Launching the portal on Monday, Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa hoped that the portal would provide an impetus to job creation, as well as the economic revival of the state.

Deputy Chief Minister Dr. C.N. Ashwath Narayan who is also the skill development Minister added, "All these years, there was no information and communication between job seekers and recruiters. This portal will solve that problem."

Also, until now, there hasn't been comprehensive information either on those seeking jobs or those looking for employees. The skill development efforts have not been in sync with the market. All these issues would be addressed by the portal, he said.

According to Karnataka Skill Development Authority Managing Director Ashwin Gowda, the portal has already seen a response with about 68 applicants in just a day.

Officials said even the organisations will have to register with the government while providing all documents concerned. The government aims to avoid any fake job advertisements through this. "We will also enable virtual interviews between the candidate and the employer," sources in the department told DH.

Recently, the government had also launched a portal exclusively for migrants who had returned to Karnataka from other places. This was meant to work as a skill registry.

However, the portal that was launched on Monday, went a step ahead by connecting both the prospective employers and employees, according to officials in the department.

Schoolteacher faces case for spreading child mispronunciation video

News Network

January 10,2020

Bengaluru, Jan 10: State’s primary and secondary education minister, S Suresh Kumar on Friday asked the Department of Public Instruction to register a complaint in the cybercrime police station against the teacher who shared a video of a child mispronouncing a Kannada word.

The viral video shows the child from a government school incorrectly pronouncing the word 'Pakkelubu' (ribcage).

The minister observed, 'It is normal for children to pronounce words incorrectly and only repetitive practise will make them say it correctly. If a video of such a mistake is made and spread on the Internet the child will see it in future and be demoralised and might start hate learning. The person who made and posted this video has committed a grave crime.
