Media Release

July 14, 2018

Mangaluru, July 14: Hikmah International Academy, a Montessori School in Mangaluru celebrated the annual Van Mahotsav recently at their school premises in Vas Lane.

K. Bhasker Moily, Mayor of Mangaluru City Corporation, graced the occasion as chief guest. A K Niyaz, Managing Director, A K Group of Industries was guest of honor.

The chairman of the Hikmah Educational Trust Mohammed Nissar, the Trustees, Chief Admin Officer, Principal, teaching and non-teaching staff and more than 50 kids from MONT-1, MONT-2 & MONT-3 participated in planting many neem saplings at the adjacent area near to the school premises.

The event slogan was ‘Think Green and Live Green’ to motivate the kids to know how important trees and plants are for our survival and well being.

The Mayor in his inaugural address said that forests play a vital role for our nation’s development. Destruction of forests ruins the ecological balance of the globe and also weakens the efforts of pollution control. The need for plantation has become even greater these days because of the growing pollution in the environment.

Mr Mohammed Nissar said that all the disadvantages of destruction of trees and forests can be balanced only with plantation of trees which maintains bio diversity, conservation of water and climate control.

He said that as we take a lot of care in protecting the plants, it teaches us how parents and teachers have to nurture our kids in their early stages with knowledge and discipline helping them to groom as respectable citizens of our great nation.

He announced that the institution will be coming up with an Eco-Friendly Campus in 3.5 acres of land in Mangaluru fully equipped with all the facilities which are required for a Modern School. Stone laying ceremony will take place within months.

Acting Principal Asma Syed was present. Event Coordinator Lubaina concluded the program with the vote of thanks.

BSY likely to expand cabinet again to satisfy miffed MLAs

News Network

February 17,2020

Bengaluru, Feb 17: Days after 10 MLAs were inducted in the Cabinet, Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa is likely to expand his Cabinet again as some BJP MLAs are unhappy, said BJP sources.

Several leaders including Umesh Katti, CP Yogeshwar, Raju Gowda and MP Renukacharya are miffed over the recent cabinet expansion, claim sources.

On February 6, ST Somashekar, Ramesh Laxmanrao Jarkiholi, Anand Singh, K Sudhakar, BA (Byrathi) Basavaraj, Arabail Hebbar Shivaram, Hasavanagowda C Patil, K Gopalaiah, Narayana Gowda and Shrimant Balasaheb Patil took oath as ministers.

It should be noted that many MLAs had won the by-polls on a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ticket in December last year after switching loyalties from the Janata Dal (Secular) (JDS) and Congress.

In the December 5 by-polls held in 15 Assembly constituencies, the BJP had won 12, while Congress managed to bag only two. One seat was won by an Independent candidate while the JDS drew a blank.

Pro-Kannada outfits call for Karnataka bandh on Feb 13 over reservation in jobs

Agencies

February 12,2020

Bengaluru, Feb 12: Karnataka Sanghatanegala Okkoota, a congregation of various pro-Kannada organisations, has called for a state-wide bandh in Karnataka on Thursday (13 February 2020) demanding reservation in jobs for Kannadigas in both government and private sectors.

The Karnataka bandh, which will begin from 6 am to 6 pm, is likely to impact life in Bengaluru as well as in other parts of the state. Interestingly, Ola and Uber drivers have also extended support to the bandh.

In Bengaluru, some other drivers’ associations, including Jai Bharatha Vehicle Owners and Drivers Association and Adarsha Auto and Taxi Union have also supported the bandh.

It is not yet clear as to whether the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) staff and workers associations will back Thursday’s bandh.

Several other organisations like the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC), Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), and Lorry Owners Association have supported the February 13 bandh.

In view of the bandh call, schools, colleges and hospitals across Karnataka are likely to remain closed on Thursday.

The Sarojini Mahishi report, which in 1984 suggested that Kannadigas should be given some reservation in jobs in private companies, public sector undertakings and multinational companies, is yet to be implemented.

It is to be noted that Sarojini Mahishi, a four-time MP and Janatha party leader, was appointed by the Ramakrishna Hegde government to head the panel in 1983. The committee submitted an interim report in June 1984. However, a final report was tabled in December 1986 with 58 recommendations, of which the Karnataka government had accepted 45.
