Mangalore, January 18: A khadi art and craft exhibition was organized by Mangalore Institute of Fashion Technology here on Wednesday.

Inaugurating the exhibition Nanda Gopal, convener CIL, and former journalist, said khadi day should be celebrated every day.

“We Indians still live in a phase of colonial hangover. We blindly follow the west whereas we have a wonderful tradition amidst us”, he said.

He said wearing khadi helps the rural people who spun khadi to earn their livelihood.

He also said that there are several opportunities for today's youth in the field of fashion, one has to grab the opportunity if not he has to create it.

Chairman of MIFT College Dr. Aroor Prasad Rao along with Academic Director Mr. M.G. Hegde and Principal Mrs. Shilpa Shetty were present.

Of course, these preferences apply to equipment that is operated manually.
Too much room inn a pilolt hole can easily send your ood screw

Mangaluru, Feb 16: An elderly woman from Tamil Nadu was on Saturday reunited with her daughter and son after 14 years at the Mangaluru's White Doves destitute home.

"Mary only knew her name when she came here 10 years ago. Recently, she told us about her home town," Corrine Rusquinha, founder of White Doves told media.
Mary had gone missing 14 years ago from her hometown Kortampet in Tamil Nadu.

"Ten years ago, she was spotted by Mangaluru police who brought her to White Doves home late one evening. Initially, she could only speak Tamil, so it was presumed she was from Tamil Nadu. She was on psychiatric treatment," Rusquinha said.

A few days back, a visiting priest at the White Doves home spoke to Mary in Tamil and asked about her hometown.

"Surprisingly, she could recall the name of her hometown, following which the visiting priest contacted the pastor at Kortampet. Mary's family, including her daughter Gnana Anthony, who is a paramedic student in Coimbatore, was informed about Mary," she said.

Soon after, Gnana and her elder brother came to Mangaluru to take their mother back to their home.

Mary's husband Jhonson, who worked as a cook, had died within a year of losing his wife.
