Mangalore, November, 2: Girls Islamic Organization of Karnataka, Dakshina Kannada district unit organised a seminar on “the role of young women in building a better society” on Tuesday at Don Bosco Hall in City.

Although women have made a foray into every field, they face discrimination everywhere. It is the responsibility of the society to encouraging women to help women lead an independent life, said Usha M, teacher of B. M. High School, Ullal.

Women have a huge role in improving the society considering she plays multiple roles both inside and outside the family, she said.

Violence against women is still rampant in the society. Even as the level of education has improved, there is degradation in the moral values. It is the responsibility of every mother to teach her children moral values, she stated.

Farah Banu, lecturer at Vidyodaya College, Venur, called upon women to make use of all available opportunities to be successful in life. “Awareness and rational education will help in bringing down violence against women. The young women should inculcate values of obedience rather than aping the West, she said

Presiding over the event GIO State Secretary, Ruksana Umar, said women should be taught human values along with secular education.

Kamarunnisa GIO district convenor was present. Jabina recited the verses from Holy Quran. Umer Banu delivered introductory speech while Ashur Biwi N compered the programme.

Mangaluru, Mar 10: Tension prevailed in the city after an international flyer quarantined at the District Wenlock Hospital walked out of the facility.

The passenger, with a recent travel history to high-risk countries, refused to cooperate with health officials. The day-long drama ended when the district administration intervened and the flyer agreed to get himself re-admitted.

Deputy commissioner Sindhu B Rupesh said the passenger had fever and was sent to an isolation ward. “The passenger is cooperating with the treatment and samples have been collected for testing,” she said. The samples will be sent to a testing centre in Bengaluru.

Sources told  that rude behaviour by staff at Mangalore International Airport may have angered the passenger and he walked out of the quarantine facility.

She said if passengers show reluctance to be screened, they should first be counselled and allowed to get themselves admitted to a hospital of their choice with quarantine facility. If they still refuse to cooperate, they will have to be hospitalised forcefully, she added.
