Mangalore, January 6: 'Gomandala- Gopooja', a three day special programme to worship cow as god, organised by the Govanithashraya Trust, Mangalore, at Nehru Maidan in the city was inaugurated on Friday evening.

Speaking on the occasion, Mangalore MP Nalin Kumar Kateel said, after the independence we have seen the way our country depends on the cow.

He said even before Independence India had to struggle to protect the sacred animal. A program of this kind is very auspicious and it must be made known to the Central government that an initiative of this kind has been taken at national level, he suggested.

Recalling the Hindu traditions, he said in the earlier days when a boy went to look for a prospective bride he would see the number of cows her house had bred.

He also demanded that the controversial anti-cow – slaughter law must be come into force, since cows give us milk without any law.

Rajashekharananda Swamiji of Vajradehi mutt, most of the times cows are being ill-treated when they are being transported by vans from one place to another.

Citing examples from the Gita he preached the public about the status of the cow in our Hindu religion. He went on to compare the cow to mother and appealed all to worship it regularly.

Delivering the presidential address, B Nagaraj Shetty, Chairman, Coastal Development Authority, called upon the Hindus to do everything possible to protect the sacred animal.

Informing about the objectives of the event, Ananth Krishna, President of the Trust, said, the relationship of Hindus with cows is very strong and ancient.

He said that it was our duty to make people aware of the need for protecting cows, which are being slaughtered everywhere.

He said that the school children must be educated about the way the cows are bred and the way it is taken care off.

The evening got off to a Vedic start by chanting of mantras. Cow worshippers began to bringing their pet animal-cum-god to the venue, where religious discourses about cows and chanting of shlokas will go one for next three days. Go-pooja, Bhajans, Vishnusahasranama, Little Krishna show and cultural programmes by blind children also will be part of the event.

DKMUL President Raviraj Hegde and VHP leader Prof MB Puranik were also present among others.

Bengaluru, May 22: Karnataka Congress delegation met Chief Election Commissioner, Dr B Basavaraju in Bengaluru, urging him to guide Karnataka Government to conduct local body elections and not to allow State government to nominate their party men to the local bodies.

The delegation was led by Congress leader Siddaramaiah and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president D K Shivakumar.

"They (State government) wants to postpone the election, they have a lot of other provisions. We are demanding to protect the law, the government doesn't have the power to interfere in the system. We will not allow the state government to nominate their party men.

The CM and his entire team is responsible for this, they are killing the democracy and Panchayati Raj system of the State," said Shivakumar while speaking to the reporters.

The local body elections were scheduled to take place in the month of March or April, which were postponed in view of the COVID-19 crisis.

However, the date for conducting the local body elections has not been decided yet.

Mangaluru, Jul 24: Parents in Dakshina Kannada are urging the educational institutions to reduce fees at least by 75% as most of the infrastructure and resources are not being utilized due to online classes. 

“School campuses are now closed. Why we have to pay such a heavy fee when our children are not availing the facilities offered on campus?” asks a Sapna (name changed), a parent, whose two daughters study at a prestigious private school in Mangaluru.  

Even though some schools considered as small players have reduced fees, most of the “prestigious” institutions in the Mangaluru have so far refused to give any discount.

“Apart from paying school fees, now we have to invest in gadgets, internet connections and accessories required for online classes. School administration can use their infrastructure and facilities for other purposes as students are not utilizing them. Hence, they must give us maximum discount during this pandemic,” said another parent.  
 
On the other hand, many parents are facing a dire financial situation due to covid-19 lockdown – while some have suffered losses in their business some have lost their jobs.

Many parents have even approached the education department to ensure that they get a discount in fees from educational institutions, said Dakshina Kannada DDPI Malleswamy.

“We cannot do anything since a government circular has asked educational institutions not to hike fees, which they have not done, and reduce fees if possible, which will never happen. The department is acting against only those schools that forcefully collect fees,” the DDPI said.
