Mangalore, July 5: Within two years, the state government would provide all necessary furniture and sports equipment to all the government schools, which currently lacks facilities, said District-in-charge Minister Krishna J Palemar.

Speaking after inaugurating 'Shaalegagi Navu Neevu', a new programme of Karnataka State Government, at Government Higher Primary School in Munchuru village near here on Wednesday, he said that facilities and good atmosphere in schools are very important for budding talents.

The minister said that the State Government's progrommes have so far succeeded in reducing the number of school drop-outs in the district considerably. “Around 3.60 lakh school-going children are there in Dakshina Kannada currently. In the past two years, 33 government schools have been opened and as many as 533 class-rooms have been built at the cost of Rs 19 crore in the district. 28 high schools have been newly opened in the district in last three years spending nearly Rs 12 crore,” he said.

Calling upon the parents to send their children to Government schools instead of pouring hard earned money on private education institutions, Mr Palemar said that the government schools are now competing with their private counterpart.

The minister said that the Government has decided to establish as many as 2080 and 1800 eco-clubs in higher primary and high schools respectively across the state to create awareness about environment among students.

On the occasion, outgoing Deputy Director of Public Instructions of Dakshina Kannada C Chamegowda was given a warm felicitation.

Zilla Panchayat Socail Justice Stating Committee President Janardana Gowda and new DDPI Moses Jayashekhar were present among others.

Mandya, July 30: BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel on Wednesday said Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa has done a commendable job in tackling the Covid-19 situation and floods and that the question of changing the leadership does not arise.

Karnataka on Wednesday reported 5,503 new cases of Covid-19 and 92 related fatalities, taking the total number of infections to 1,12,504 and the death toll to 2,147.

Speaking to reporters here, Kateel said, "Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi has gone to Delhi to discuss the projects sanctioned to state with the central minister. There is no need to read too much into it."

Replying to a query on graft charges against the BSY government by the Congress, Kateel said, "Congress national president, state unit president are out on bail in graft cases . Why did a Congress leader who calls himself a bande (rock) has approached court seeking stay on CBI probe? Before making any allegations against the government, they should think about 'irregularities' in Indira Canteen and housing schemes," he charged.

Instead of instilling confidence and hope among the people in these testing times, the Congress is unnecessarily creating fear with petty politics, he told reporters in Shravanabelagola, Hassan district.

"The Yediyurappa-led BJP government is working day and night to tackle the Covid-19. Similarly, several non-governmental organisations have joined hands with the government in the fight against the virus. But, the Congress is only creating confusion by issuing baseless statements," Kateel said.
