Water

Mangalore, February 11: Residents of Ganeshnagar colony in Ganjimath, who comprise Dalits and Kudubis, have alleged that they do not have drinking water supply for the last four months.


Over 50 families, mostly from the Kudubi community, complain that their drinking water supply, which was sourced from a bore well dug up in their area, has become defunct. Ganeshnagar colony is located in Badagulipady village in Ganjimath gram panchayat limits, around 20km from Mangalore. “During the gram panchayat elections, candidates sought votes. But it is nearly five months, and they have not solved the problem despite our repeated pleas. We (women) have to walk so much to find good drinking water, that too, after returning from a day's work,” said an angry 50-year-old Seethu.


She and several other women in the colony are daily wage labourers. Several of the women complained that they had to wait for several hours for water from a bore well just outside their colony. But they had to push the handle of the hand pump for several minutes before there was any sign of water, they said. For some time, one of the residents of the colony allowed the others to use water from the well of their house. But for the last few days, even that has gone dry, they said. Gopal Gowda said “The prices of vegetables have risen so much. We can not afford to wait here for drinking water all day without going for work. Some of us are old, most families have children. We wake up in the morning and there is no water for us to drink.”


Seeta, who is an agricultural labourer, said things would have been easier for her if she had daughters. Her three sons went for work in the morning and only returned in the evening, while she went for work as well as arranged for water.


Gram panchayat member G.M. Imtiyaz said in the last four months the panchayat had dug up four wells but none of them had any water. He said that the problem had risen because a bore well had been dug up in the neighbouring of Badaga Yedapadavu, and that the panchayat was working to address the issue of water supply for the colony.

Bengaluru, Jan 5: BJP leader and Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa once again blamed the Congress of creating 'confusion' among the Muslim community over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act-2019 while launching a door to door campaign to dispel such rumors.

Yediyurappa was on a door-to-door campaign to make people aware of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and to allay their fears.

"Unnecessarily, the members of Congress are creating confusion among the Muslim community. I assure you that not a single Muslim will be affected because of CAA," said B. S. Yediyurappa.

"Almost all previous Prime Ministers have supported it, now Congress is creating a problem so as to create confusion among Muslims. That's why we are out on the door-to-door campaign," he said.

The Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019, seeks to grant Indian citizenship to Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh and who entered India on or before December 31, 2014.

Mysuru, Jan 27: Chief minister BS Yediyurappa on Sunday refused to field questions on the state’s finances, merely saying his budget on March 5 will do the talking. The question came in the wake of Siddaramaiah, leader of the opposition, claiming recently that the state’s coffers were dry and its finances were in the doldrums.

However, Yediyurappa insisted the state’s finances were sound and it will be better once promises made by the business community during his trip to Davos turn into concrete investment.

“I will present the budget for 2020-21 on March 5. People will then know about the state’s financial position,” Yediyurappa said during a visit to Suttur Mutt on Sunday. “I will answer Siddaramaiah’s comments during the forthcoming budget session of the state legislature. The Davos meet I attended will benefit the state immensely. It will bring huge investments that will promote industry and agriculture growth and various job-generation activities.”

Bengaluru, May 5: The Karnataka government is planning to maintain a Health database of its citizens in the backdrop of experience gained from the COVID-19 pandemic, Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar said on Tuesday.

In a statement issued here, he said a “Health Register” will be maintained to keep track of all health issues of the people and the project will be implemented first in Chikkaballapur district on an experimental basis.

“COVID-19 has provided enough experience for all of us and therefore, there is a need to maintain health data of each person. The government will be undertaking a survey using a team of Primary Health Centre officials, Revenue officials, Education department staff and Asha Workers,” the Minister said in a release here.
