Mangalore, March 30: The Indian Youth Congress (IYC), the youth wing of Indian National Congress will hold its membership drive through organizational elections in the State from April 25.



Addressing media persons here on Wednesday, Abu Sharma, Lok Sabha Returning Officer of the Indian National Congress said that this was the first time that internal party elections are being held in the Indian National Congress.



He said after completing membership drive, a voters list will be created and elections process for the IYC organization office bearers at booth level will be commenced. This will be followed by elections for office bearers at Assembly Constituency level, the Lok Sabha and the state level.



To ensure fairness in the election process, he said, Rahul Gandhi has requested Foundation for Advanced Management of Elections (FAME), an NGO created by Lyngdoh, former Chief Election Commissioner of India, to audit the membership and election process ensuring it is impartial and open to all.



He said “It is only through these elections that the real leaders will get identified. Leaders who have not risen through a transparent and democratic process cannot be expected to represent the real aspirations and needs of the largest and youngest democracy of the world,”




To become a member of the Indian Youth Congress, one should download membership form from www.iyc.in/karnataka and filled applications should be sent to Lok Sabha Returning Officer with a copy of address proof, ID proof along with membership fee.

Bengaluru, Jul 3: Over 35 acres of land in nine villages on the outskirts of Bengaluru have been earmarked for burial and cremation of bodies of COVID-19 victims after concerns were raised over the safety of funerals being held in burial grounds located in residential areas.

Deputy Commissioner of Bengaluru Urban District GN Shivamurthy issued an order setting apart about 35.5 acres in the villages under four Taluks of Bengaluru North, Bengaluru South, Anekal and Yelahanka.

The order directed the respective Tahsildars to register these chunks of land as reserved for burial grounds and not to use for any purpose.

According to the sources in the district administration, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu and Revenue Minister R Ashoka had directed the officials to identify places on the city outskirts to dispose of the bodies of COVID-19 victims.

Mr Sriramulu had on Wednesday said COVID-19 victims will not be laid to rest in burial grounds in the city and separate places will be earmarked on the outskirts in the backdrop of safety concerns raised by public.

He had also warned against unscientific disposal of used Personal Protection Equipment kits worn by the families of the victim for the final rites, referring to reports about such instances.

In some places, people have also expressed concern over bodies of those who died of the coronavirus being buried in their neighbourhood.

Bengaluru, Aug 4: As the stage is set for the ground-breaking ceremony for Ram temple construction at Ayodhya on Wednesday, retired Supreme Court judge N Santosh Hegde has called for the promotion of religious harmony and peaceful coexistence and respect for different faiths.

"It is a good idea to make that as an object of the temple so that there can be peace in the world," the former Solicitor General of India said when asked if the temple should be promoted as a symbol of national integration, and social and communal harmony.

Hegde said one of the most dangerous things for conflict today is religion. "In that background, there should be some effort from somebody or other to bring about peaceful coexistence, respecting each religion," the former Karnataka Lokayukta told PTI on Tuesday. "It is a good idea to start Bhumi Pujan as an indicator of that or foundation for developing harmony among various religions," he added.

The Supreme Court had in November last year paved the way for the construction of a Ram temple by a Trust at the disputed site of the Babri Masjid's demolition in Ayodhya. It also directed the Centre to allot an alternative 5- acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board for building a new mosque at a "prominent" place in the holy town in Uttar Pradesh. The Uttar Pradesh government has allotted a five-acre land in Dhannipur village in Sohaval Tehsil of Ayodhya for the mosque's construction.
