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.

The exhibition was kept open for public viewing the whole day. Art and craft prepared by the students won the appreciation of all the visitors gathered.

Of course, these preferences apply to equipment that is operated manually.
Too much room inn a pilolt hole can easily send your ood screw
careening through the board and breaking through
to the other side. Don't worry about the quality when just starting out.
Theyy have found that children caan take something ass simple as a toy car or
a set of blocks and take it where their imagination leads.

Mangaluru, June 22: A chartered flight from Dammam with more than 170 stranded Saudi Kannadiga passengers landed at Mangaluru International Airport at 8.53 pm. 

The flight was chartered by Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum (SKHF), an unregistered NGO, which was formed recently to help the Kannadigas stranded in Saudi Arabia due to covid-19 lockdown under the leadership of Zakariya Jokatte, president of Jubail unit of Bearys Chamber of Commerce and Industry and KS Sheikh Karnire, Director of Expertise Contracting Co. Ltd, Saudi Arabia.

There were 165 adults and 8 infants on board the IndiGo flight. All the passengers were screened at the airport. They will be dispatched to quarantine centres after completing formalities. 

SKHF had launched an online portal to assist those who were in need of emergency repatriation such as elderly people, those who lost their jobs, pregnant women and those who are in need of emergency medical treatment back home in India. 

SKHF coordinated with the authorities concerned to carry out all the formalities and legal procedures in Saudi Arabia. SKHF members were present at the Dammam Airport to help the passengers during the departure. 

Mr Jokatte and Mr Sheikh have thanked U T Khader, Mangaluru MLA and Dr Arathi Krishna, former deputy chairperson of NRI forum of government of Karnataka, for their help in chartering the flight.

Mangaluru, May 13: Kannadigas in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have sought additional flights to return to Karnataka during a video conference with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa here on Tuesday.

Noting that most of the ex-pats in UAE were from the coastal region, they urged the state government to ensure that most of these flights land in the Mangalore International Airport.

Many Kannadigas in the UAE were left unemployed due to the lockdown. “Many of them do not have the means to return to Karnataka and the state government should aid them,” representatives of various Kannadiga ex-pat groups urged the CM.

Yediyurappa said that the government has made all arrangements to bring back the ex-pats, and assured to fulfil all their demands.
