Carmelites have a new parish in Koteshwar

February 2, 2011

Koteshwar, February 2: The long awaited dream of establishing a Parish in Koteshwar came true on Sunday, January 30 as the Episcopal Vicar, Very Rev. Dr. Baptist Menezes read the decree from the Bishop of Mangalore and declared St. Anthony's Chapel into a Parish.

St. Anthony's Parish in Koteshwar has altogether 72 families most of who belong to Pius Nagar Parish. For the past ten years, the Carmelite Fathers used to offer daily mass at this chapel. Since the parish is entrusted to the care of the Carmelites of the Karnataka Goa Province, their Provincial, Rev. Dr. Archibald Gonsalves was also present.

Fr. Vincent D'Souza, who had earlier rendered ten year long service in Bahrain, took charge as the first parish priest. Fr. Provincial recognized the services of Fr. Maxim Noronha in establishing St. Anthony's Chapel, Fr. Walter Mendonca, the present parish priest of Pius Nagar for facilitating the process and Fr. Boniface D'Souza, OCD for taking leadership.

The Episcopal Vicar thanked everyone and wished this new parish all the best. The Carmelite Fathers, Fr. Cyril Menezes, Fr. Melwin D'Cunha and Fr. Deep Fernandes were also present.

Bengaluru, Jun 11: Within hours after claiming that it has decided to prohibit schools from schools from conducting online classes till Class 7, the Karnataka government has taken a U-turn and said that currently than ban is only till Class 5.

“Karnataka Govt has decided to stop all online classes for LKG, UKG & classes up to 5th std. To extend this up to 7th std is only a suggestion from few cabinet ministers as expressed in an informal discussion and NOT a decision,” tweeted Prime and Secondary Minister Suresh Kumar.

Law Minister J C Madhuswamy earlier today had stated that the decision to ban online classes till 7th standard was taken by the government.  "All of us were of the opinion that there were challenges faced by students studying in rural areas. Hence, we urged the government to extend the ban on online classes till 7 standard," he said
