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, July 28: Former prime minister and JD(S) chief H D Deve Gowda today threatened to launch a state-wide agitation in against the amendments made to the Karnataka Land Reforms Act.

Gowda’s opposition to the new law comes even as Congress leader Siddaramaiah is also doggedly pursuing it.

Demanding that the state government immediately rollback the ordinance empowering these amendments, the octogenarian leader said he personally would take to streets if the government failed to budge.

The B S Yediyurappa government has liberalised the land reforms law by removing restrictions on non-agriculturists from purchasing and owning farm lands.

The government has also amended the APMC Act and has tweaked labour laws, which are all “against the interest of the state and must be rolled back,” Gowda said.

Speaking to reporters here, Gowda stated that he had already written thrice to Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa in this regard. "The ordinances have to be taken back. The amendments to Karnataka Land Reforms Act, by repealing sections 79-A, B and C, is an anti-farmer move. The APMC Act amendment, too, is against the interest of the state. The government has failed to speak about the impact of these amendments," said Gowda, who is now a Rajya Sabha member.

Elaborating on the amendment to the Land Reform Act, the JD(S) patriarch opined that by throwing open agricultural land ownership to anybody at all, the government was only helping real estate developers while pushing farmers into a “vulnerable” situation.

Amidst all this, there are now reports of funds misappropriation in Covid-19 relief measures and in procurement of medical equipment, he said, adding that it seemed like only the corrupt became stronger over time.

Further, Gowda lambasted both national parties for creating political unrest, referring to the ongoing political crisis in Rajasthan and the recent developments in Madhya Pradesh. However, he added that he would not wish to dwell on it much, while emphasising that his focus was primarily on strengthening his own party at this point in time.

Bengaluru, Feb 14: BJP leader and Karnataka Revenue Minister R Ashok refused to comment on the Bellary car accident case, allegedly involving his son, saying that the matter was still under investigation and that they did not have anything to do with the said car.

The car crash took place on February 10, when a speeding red Mercedes Benz allegedly driven by Ashok's son rammed into a tea stall by the roadside killing two people. While a 16-year-old boy Ravi died on the spot, one of the car's passengers was also killed in the accident.

"I came to know about the incident and also heard that two people have died and a few others have sustained injuries. Everybody is equal under the law. It is not fair to comment as a minister when the case is being investigated," Ashok told reporters here on Thursday.

However, the minister avoided answering questions about his son's presence in the car and said that they had "no connection" with the car.

"The case is in the investigation stage, I don't want to comment on anything. My son's name is not present in the FIR. We have no connection with the car," he said.

Superintendent of Police CK Baba told reporters that Ashok's son was not present in the car.

"There was no senior BJP leader and Revenue Ministers's son in the car. We will not hide anything and the case will be investigated," Baba said.
