Mangalore, February 27: The post-graduate department of English literature in the St Aloysius College and Durga Pooja and Dussera Celebration Committee Mangalore recreated the golden age of Tagore, giving a slice of Bengali culture in Mangalore in Shantiniketan style on Saturday.

The day-long tribute was named as 'Tagore's Day' which had the theme for the annual cultural festival of the college entitled “Engquest Twenty11”.

The main objective of the event was to pay tribute to Tagore on the occasion of his 150th birth centenary.

The event was also aimed to forward thoughts of Rabindranath Tagore through a cross cultural programme.

The day-long tributes included a special discourse on Tagore's literature, recitation of his poems, a quiz on his works and ballet on his life enacted by the students in typical Shantiniketan style, with costumes brought from Shantiniketan.

Three ballets namely 'Balmiki Prativa,' 'Chandalika' and 'Chitrangada' were performed. All the three ballets were the works of Tagore, but only selected instances from the ballet were performed.

A dance drama, was enacted by the students of St Aloysius College and the local Bengali community in 'Shantiniketan style'. The language used in the ballet was Bengali to keep the essence and flavour of the Bengali culture but translations in English helped audience understand the meaning of the performance.

The members of the Bengali Association sung some of Rabindranath Tagore's songs and also staged dance performances.

Bengaluru, Aug 6: Firebrand BJP Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya on Wednesday said that control of state power by Hindus is absolutely essential for sustenance of Dharma.

His comments, in a series of tweets, came on a day Prime Minister Narendra Modi performed the groundbreaking ceremony for the Lord Ram temple at Ayodhya.

"Dear Hindus, Most important lesson is that control of State power by Hindus is absolutely essential for sustenance of Dharma. When we didn't control State, we lost our temple. When we regained, we rebuilt. The 282 (seats) in 2014 and 303 (seats) in 2019 to Sri Narendra Modi made today possible!", Surya, who is also the party's BJP youth Wing state general secretary, tweeted.

He also said that the survival of India depends on the survival of Sanatana Dharma.

"The Sanatana Dharma, that is nationalism,' Sri Aurobindo had said in his Uttarapara speech. But what does it mean? Along with Jai Sri Ram, the purohits also chanted Bharat Mata Ki Jai - That is Dharmic nationalism. If Dharma survives, India survives," he said in another tweet.

Mandya, Jun 28: Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised an 83-year-old farmer from Malavalli taluk in Mandya district of Karnataka for his efforts in water conservation.

While urging the people to focus on saving water, Modi, in his 'Man Ki Baat' on All India Radio quoted Kamegowda from Dasna Doddi village who single handedly dug small 16 ponds over the years in his farm land and in nearby hill while taking his animals for grazing.

"Kamegowda ji is an ordinary farmer, albeit possessing an extraordinary personality. He has achieved a personal feat that will leave anyone awestruck! Kamegowda ji, aged 80-85 takes out his animals for grazing but at the same time he has taken it upon himself to build new ponds in his area", the PM said in his Mann Ki Baat, a monthly radio address on Sunday.

To overcome problems of water scarcity in the area, Gowda started building small ponds. Thereby, he contributed a lot for water conservation, the PM said.

"... An octagenerarian like Kamegowda ji, till now, has dug 16 ponds through his hard work and the sweat of his brow. It is possible that the ponds he has constructed may not be very big but then his efforts are huge. Today, the entire area has got a new lease of life on account of these ponds," the PM said.

A little effort by us helps nature and environment quite significantly. Many of our countrymen are putting extraordinary efforts in this endeavour, the PM said. 

Kamegowda, used to take his sheep and goats to nearby hill for grazing. After finding no water to sheeps, he started digging ponds to address water scarcity. With collection of rain water, these lakes are brimming with water even during peak summer.
