Speaking at the Regional Advocates' Conference 2016 organised by the Mangalore Bar Association here on Saturday, he called upon the law professionals to uphold justice from their home level.

“Advocates are cream of society. They even participated in the freedom struggle. They played a pivotal role in maintaining peace in society. They are pace makers of society,” he said.

He said the advocates should uphold the interest of their clients. They are rendering skills by enrolling themselves with the Legal Services Authority to serve the needy in the country. Advocacy is a responsible profession, Justice Nazeer said.

High Court and District Administrative Judge Justice AN Venugopal Gowda said advocates should have knowledge of all issues to provide justice to clients.

“Though specialisation in law is becoming popular in the recent years, the advocates should have knowledge in all fields,” he said.

“Leadership qualities in advocates are on the decline in recent years. The advocates played a vital role in the freedom movement. The advocates have a social responsibility. The governments spend a huge amount of money to construct courts and provide basic facilities to the courts for the advocates to start their service to the society. Hence, the advocates have a greater social responsibility,” he remarked.

Chairman of Backward Classes Commission of Andhra Pradesh Justice K L Manjunath, Advocate General of Karnataka Madhusudan R Naik, District and Sessions Judge Uma M G and others were present. SP Chengappa, president, Mangalore Bar Association, the host of the regional conference, welcomed those present in the gathering.

Prophet Muhammed Pbuh asked with the companions : Do U know who is the one who is BANKRUPT?
They said : The BANKRUPT is the ONE who has NO MONEY and NO POSSESSIONS.
Prophet muhammad pbuh said : Among my UMMAH, the ONE who is BANKRUPT is the one who will come on the DaY of Resurrection with PRAYER, Fasting and Zakah (to his credit), But he will come having insulted this one, slandered that one, consumed the Wealth of so & so, shed the blood of so & so and beaten so & so.
So they will all be given some of his hasanaat (the good he did) and when his hasanaat run out, before judgement is passed, some of their sins will be taken and cast onto Him, then he will be cast into the Fire.

Stop oppressing other people... A day will come to face our CREATOR, who created me, YOU and all that exist in this earth.

New Delhi, Mar 30: Congress MP Rajmohan Unnithan on Monday approached the Supreme Court seeking directions to open the Karnataka-Kerala border to allow movement of ambulances and other emergency vehicles for the transport of essential items to Kerala.

Unnithan, who is an MP From Kerala's Kasaragod constituency, filed a plea seeking direction to Karnataka to open the borders with Kerala and in particular Kasargod-Mangalore border at Talappadi.

The petition sought directions to Karnataka to allow the movement of ambulances, emergency vehicles, trucks and other vehicles carrying essential and non-essential items to Kerala. It also sought to stay the blockade imposed by Karnataka with its border states.

The plea also sought directions to Karnataka to register an FIR and constitute a special investigation team (SIT) under the supervision of this court to enquire against the concerned authorities including the police officials whose action led to the death of two citizens.

It said that the imposition of such a blockade at a time when the supply of commodities is itself hit hard and when a medical emergency has plagued the entire country is a clear violation of Articles 21 and 19(d) of the Constitution.

"This blockade has also resulted in cutting off the essential lifeline of National Highways and State Highways and major District Roads leading to the State of Kerala which has resulted in the shortage of supply of essential and non-essential items to the State of Kerala leading to shortage supply of food and medical supplies," the plea said.

"This ill-planned and dangerous blockade has claimed the life of a 70-year-old woman who was denied entry into Karnataka even for the purpose of urgent medical treatment which was only available in the medical hub of Mangalore. This is a clear case of violation of the right to life with dignity by the state as citizens are made to die on the roads because of the action of the state which is in total disregard to Article 21," it added.

This comes as the country is under a 21-day lockdown to prevent the spread of coronavirus, which according to the Ministry of Health and Family Affairs has claimed the lives of 29 people and infected a total of 1071 people as on Monday morning.

Sri Vishwakapriyattirtha Sripada, while donating the amount, delivered the message that in these difficult times in our country, the government has no sources of tax revenue but the cost of various departments especially public health expenses are increasing.

We leave three meals a week and distribute the money saved to those in need. We pray that India becomes the first COVID-19-free country in the world with all our efforts.

Bengaluru, Aug 4: With preparations underway for conducting exams for the final semester/ year students in the state, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr CN Ashwathnarayan on Monday directed the respective universities to conduct exams for the backlog papers as well.

"In the wake of COVID-19, it has been decided to hold exams only for the students of final semester/year courses. It has come to our notice that some universities have decided against conducting exams for final year students who have a backlog to clear from previous semesters. This is unpardonable," the Deputy Chief Minister said.

"Our intention is to see that the final year students finish their course. In the present situation, conducting only final semester exams won't help. We have to help the students in clearing their backlogs," added Ashwathnarayan, directing all universities to compulsorily conduct these exams.

Meanwhile, Ashwathnarayan thanked the staff and officials of various government departments who were responsible for successfully conducting the CET exams even amidst the difficult situation in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic.

"In all, 1,94,419 students had registered for the CET exams, of which 1,75,428 wrote the exams. The percentage of students who took up the exams this year was equivalent to that of the previous years, in normal times," the DCM informed.

"After we successfully conducted the exams, Arunachal Pradesh is going to conduct the Public Service Commission exams on the lines of how we successfully conducted the exams. Likewise, even our KPSC has said it will conduct the exams. We must appreciate the good work of the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA), which has set an example for others," Ashwathnarayan said.

The deputy chief minister said that 33 colleges in various districts across the state faced shortage of land and that it is the responsibility of the District Commissioners (DCs) to get the lands sanctioned for all these colleges.
In Bagalkot district alone land has not been sanctioned for six degree colleges, he said.

Reacting to this, Bagalkot DC Captain Rajendra assured to look into the matter as soon as he receives the proposal from department officials.

"Similarly, there is shortage of land for five Diploma colleges and 28 ITI colleges in different parts of the state. The DCs must immediately pay attention to this. Once they get the land, buildings will come up within no time," the Karnataka deputy chief minister said.
