Mangalore, February 8: In memory of art Guru late BG Mahammad, Sapna Noronha, a city based artist will organise a painting exhibition “Tribute to BG Mahammad” in association with Karavali Chithra Kalavidara Chavadi Mangalore at Prasad Art Gallery here on Friday, February 11 at 4.30 pm.

Addressing the media persons at Press Club here on Tuesday, Ganesh Somayaji, senior artist said that BG Mahammad who died two years ago at the age of 89, was a great artist cum teacher. He never used to criticize any students but tried to bring them around to a different way of looking at things. He had described his approach like “Let the paint do the work by moving it around until something happens feel good,” and never said “That's finished” as there was always something else to be discovered. Hence, Mahammad never aimed to achieve a pre-determined end result.

Sapna Noronha, who is also the student of Mahammad said that her Guru Mahammad used to paint with an emphasis tone rather than just a line.

About 20 paintings of Sapna Noronha will be exhibited on the occasion.

Dr Narendra Kamath, Skin Specialist, Sanath Kumar Shetty, Architect, SKS Group Partner, SS Nayak, Charted Accountant and Shabbir Ali, artist and son of BG Mahammad will be the guests on the occasion.

Artistes Dinesh Holla and Koti Prasad were present at the press meet.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Congress is confused on the Ram Mandir issue and in dilemma to take a firm stand fearing loss of Muslim or Hindu votes, according to BJP leader and Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.

"Congress opposed BJP's stand on constructing Ram Mandir in Ayodya, it called Lord Ram fictional and even decided to break the Ramsetu. Now, Congressmen are speaking the other way. Congress cannot think beyond vote bank politics which is in its DNA itself. Congressmen think that they are born to be in power," he said while speaking to media persons. 

He said that BJP is all for constructing a grand Ram Mandir peacefully and legally, due to its conviction and not for politics. Same was the case with the revocation of Article 370 for Jammu & Kashmir. Anti-national activities have comparatively come down now. 

Some people do not want everything going smoothly in the country, and Congress and Asaduddin Owaisi are among them, Joshi opined, adding that the Congress is merely frustrated.

Mangaluru, Mar 29: The state government has lifted the restrictions on the movement of chicken and eggs, thus ensuring the availability of protein-based nutrition to consumers.

Due to the 21-day lockdown in the State, police and other regulatory authorities were not allowing movement of poultry products, which not only had affected the entire poultry sector but also the consumers. The Karnataka Poultry Farmers and Breeders Association (KPFBA) had made a representation to the government to lift the restrictions.

The Secretary of Animal Husbandry and Fisheries, A B Ibrahim in a circular dated March 27, 2020 night , said that the minimal husbandry sector came under essential services and is given exemption during the lockdown period. He cited the letter which provides for the exemption, issued by the Government of India Home Secretary and the Union Joint Secretary of Animal Husbandry and Dairying.
