Mangalore, March 20: Hosangadi village in Dakshina Kannada on Saturday received the sanitation award in Bangalore, instituted as part of the Total Sanitation Campaign, at the gram panchayat level.




Conferring the 'Nairmalya Ratna' and 'Swarna Nairmalya' awards, Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa said that the Government was determined to end the practice of open defecation that still exists in some parts of the state in the next two years and envisaged a programme to accomplish the task.




He said that a subsidy of Rs. 2,500 that was being given to below the poverty line families, who want to build toilets in their houses, had been increased to Rs. 3,000.



Detailing the programmes envisaged by the Bharatiya Janata Party Government for rural development and empowering women, the Chief Minister called upon the elected representatives to create confidence among the people in the system of decentralisation.



Presiding over the function, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Jagadish Shettar said the award recipient gram panchayats would become a model for others.



The sanitation campaign had achieved 67 per cent success all over the State, and 39 lakh of the targeted 58 lakh toilets had been built.



People's involvement



Total involvement of the people in rural areas was the primary need to achieve the target, he noted.



“People in rural parts are more interested in having cellphones than toilets in their houses. The Government cannot do everything; the mission could be accomplished only with the active participation of elected representatives and people,” he observed.



Shettar said total sanitation could be achieved only if all the 90,000 members of gram, taluk and zilla panchayat members take initiative in the Total Sanitation Programme.



Dakshina Kannada and Shimoga districts, Tirthahalli, Karkala and Yellapur taluks, Hosangadi in Dakshina Kannada, Bashettyhalli in Bangalore Rural and Kothali in Belgaum gram panchayats received the district, taluk and gram panchayat level 'Nairmalya Rathna' awards.



Bashettyhalli, Taralu (Bangalore city), Chatnahalli (Davangere), Tambrahalli (Bellary), Bhagyanagar (Koppal), Devikere (Yadgir), Kothali (Belgaum), Anagodu (Uttara Kannada), Gondi (Haveri), Hosangadi (Dakshina Kannada), Hakattur (Kodagu) and Mala (Udupi) gram panchayats were given the 'Swarna Nairmalya' awards.

New Delhi, Jan 28: The Supreme Court of India today granted bail to 17 convicts sentenced to life imprisonment in 2002 Gujarat massacre case, pending their appeal before the Supreme Court.

The convicts also have to participate in social and spiritual services, said the court, announcing the riders for bail.

The Bench of Chief Justice of India SA Bobde and Justices BR Gavai and Surya Kant directed for the convicts to be segregated into two groups to be sent to Indore and Jabalpur.

District legal authorities in Indore and Jabalpur in Madhya Pradesh have been asked to ensure that the convicts do the spiritual and social work the court has asked for.

The Supreme Court has also asked the administration to find them work for livelihood. The state legal services authority has been asked to file a compliance report as also report on their conduct.

The case concerns the mass killing of 33 innocent Muslims - mostly women and children - who were burnt alive at Sardarpura village in March 2002.

This was part of the mass massacre that swept through Gujarat in the aftermath of the death of train passengers on Sabarmati Express in Godhra on Feb 27, 2002. Thousands of innocent Muslims were killed and raped in the three-day violence. The victims include hundreds of children including newborns.

In 2016, the Gujarat High Court had upheld the conviction of 17 accused in the Sardarpura massacre case.

Earlier, a Special SIT court had convicted a total of 31 persons in the case, after three years of trial against 73 persons from Sardarpura and nearby villages.

For the sake of God please do not call them JUSTICE. If they str aware of meaning of word justice then they would have given death penalty to all the culprits. So sad that supreme court of india is running as per the instructions of MODI govt. RIP Justice
