Mangaluru, Nov 10: When the Tipu Jayanti celebrations began at the Netravati Auditorium of Dakshina Kannada Zilla Panchayat in the city on Friday morning, men-in-khaki arrested a local BJP leader for allegedly trying to disrupt the programme.

Tight security is in place at the programme venue and police are not allowing the people without any identity cards to entre the auditorium.  BJP minority morcha leader Franklin Monteiro was detained when he tried to entre the auditorium to disrupt the programme.

According to Mangaluru City Police Commissioner T.R. Suresh, Tipu Jayanti is being held at only one place in the city. Neither has any other organisation applied for permission to hold the celebrations nor the police have given permission to hold such programmes today.

Mr. Suresh said the city police have booked over 80 security cases against habitual offenders and obtained bonds from them for good behaviour. Police are also keeping a close watch on trouble mongers to prevent any untoward incident, he said. The police have also taken a few trouble mongers into preventive custody on Thursday evening.

Over 1,200 police personnel, including those from Karnataka State Reserve Police and City Armed Reserve, have been deployed at all sensitive areas across the city police commissionerate. Also, one company of Rapid Action Force is stationed in the city to face any eventuality.

Everything is only because of BJP people. Otherwise people can walk, go anywhere without any restriction or fear.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Anticipating a huge number of pilgrims from Karnataka to start visiting Ayodhya following the foundation stone laying ceremony of the Ram temple, Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa on Friday requested his Uttar Pradesh counterpart Yogi Adityanath for two acres of land to build a 'yatri nivas' (guest house).

"A large number of pilgrims from Karnataka would be visiting Ayodhya. The government of Karnataka wishes to construct a yatri nivas for the pilgrims visiting Ayodhya," Yediyurappa wrote to Yogi.

"I request you to grant two acres of land in Ayodhya for this purpose," he said.

The Chief Minister said the yatri nivas will be constructed for the benefit of pilgrims from the southern state.

He also congratulated the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister for successfully laying the foundation stone for the Ram temple on Wednesday.

Our ruling govt is only interested in RAM Mandir and spending crores of rupees for the temple. Why the other community is not demanding fund from the GOVT?

Not bothered about the development of the country as currently we have no idea how to tackle the corona viurs. Ministers are keen on builing Guest house for pilgrims, Statue of RAM etc etc.

Please concentrate on how to minimise the Virus issue in KARNAKATA like other Gulf countries.

Mangaluru, Apr 23: The scarcity of water in Kukkavu area of Belthangady town in Dakshina Kannada district has forced school-going children to dig a well with their hands.
The children studying in primary schools were seen lifting the heavy buckets of water from the well.

The residents were facing the water shortage from the past couple of days, amid the coronavirus lockdown.
A group of five adolescents managed to dug the well as deep as 12 feet within just a span of four days.

" We are facing water problem now. With the support of my five more friends, we dug this well. At the beginning we just found soil, then in the deeper layers, we also found stones. We got access to the water at 10 feet down," said Dhanush, a class 9th student, while speaking to news agency.

The shortage of water during the summer months is a perennial problem in across several states in India, and the growing population has only added to the woes.

In extreme conditions, poor have to draw water from small water holes.

The passion of young  Ms Tabassum and Social Working of today, particularly, gives me lot of hope.  It almost feels like the political class wants to bring down India while the people are so hard working and committed to nation building.

 

Congratulation Miss. Way to go.

 

 

PS: Media has been compromised and fake news factories churn out crap daily. Thanks CD for bringing this news to readers.

CONGRATULATIONS.

 

Mrs.Tabassum's service for humanity is highly commendable.She looks after HIV & AIDS effected children with compassion like mother without expecting anything in returns.

She is the alumni of JF managed Green View PU womens college at Derealakette.

She deserve for more prestigious awards even like "Padma Shri" for her selfless and sincere services for the society and the nation.

All the best.
