State govt committed to improve power scenario in state: Shobha

June 18, 2011

Mangalore, June 18: Energy Minister Shobha Karandlaje has reiterated that the BJP led state government is wholly committed for improving the power scenario in Karnataka.

She was speaking after unveiling the plaque of proposed KEB Engineers' Association's zonal office building, which is to be set up at Kavoor area, at Lions Seva Kendra, Mallikatta here on Saturday.

Admitting that power is one amongst the most essential civic amenities for citizens she said it is the responsibility of the government for supplying continuous and quality power for all residential, commercial and farming needs. Shobha said the state government has embarked on the purchase of 1,300 MW power every day from different sources in order to meet the power demand.

Although there was no shortage of power, the state lacked appropriate receiving stations and feeder lines, with the power transmission and distribution system not being upgraded for nearly 25 years by successive Governments that ruled the state, she lamented.

Shobha said the government has envisaged setting up of 167 new receiving stations across the state with a proposal for installing 19 66KV capacity stations and 35 new lines in CHESCom limits.

The minister also said that the state has envisaged total power audit for maintaining accountability in power supply and distribution.

Vatican rejects second appeal of Kerala nun against her expulsion from congregation

News Network

March 2,2020

Kochi, Mar 2: The Vatican has rejected the second appeal by Sister Lucy Kalappura -- one of the nuns who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal -- against her expulsion from Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC).

In her plea, she had demanded that her version be heard and her expulsion from FCC revoked.

She was expelled from FCC for participating in public protests demanding the arrest of Franco Mulakkal in the nun rape case.

''I got a letter from Vatican which says my appeal has been rejected. But the rest of the letter is written in the Latin language. So after I understand it, I will respond," Sister Lucy told news agency.

''The authorities are contemptuous of those who make such complaints. That is why the letter is written in Latin. Sister Lucy would continue her legal fight in the courts,'' said George Moolechalil, who has been authorised by Sister Lucy to communicate with the media on her behalf.

A petition of Sister Lucy is still pending at Mananthavady Munsif Court at Wayanad that demands that she should not be expelled from the convent where she is staying.

Religious issues should be resolved within the guidelines of devine laws.

Unfortunately the Chrisitianity is no more in its originality.

The holy bible has been systematically abused and edited to the benefits of rulers.

The book has been contaminated with lots of editions.

People should search for truth and follow it.

Example, the religion never told to remain unmarried for priests or nuns.

They go against its teaching inveting their own idea against God's teaching.

Vatican is a corporate person.
