CM lauds Mangalore media

February 12, 2012

Mangalore, February 12: Print and electronic media should bring out the news without twisting or exaggerating the facts, said Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda

Speaking after formally inaugurating the new hall of Patrika Bhavan here on Sunday, he said though the press club belonged to media, it was dedicated to people of entire Dakshina Kannada district, as it disseminates information to the people.

He said that the State government has sanctioned Rs 25 lakh each for the construction of Patrika Bhavan in those districts where there was no such facility for journalists. Apart from this grant, Rs 12.5 lakh each has been sanctioned for the facelift of the existing Patrika Bhavans.

He said that State Government has always encouraged journalists in many ways. Increasing the pension from Rs 1000 to Rs 2000 and conferring awards, etc were the favours of BJP government, he said.

Praising the Mangalore media for what he called 'their excellent work', he said the journalists here still have to play a responsible role in the future as the city is undergoing a speedy growth.


Dakshina Kannada District Working Journalists' Union president P B Harish Rai presided over the function.

Deputy Speaker of Karnataka Legislative Assembly N Yogish Bhat, MCC Mayor Praveen Anchan, Mulky-Moodbidri MLA Abhaya Chandra Jain, Mangalore MLA UT Khader, and Bantwal MLA B Ramanath Rai were among the chief guests.

DK district Deputy Commissioner N S Channappa Gowda and Commissioner of Police Seemanth Kumar Sigh were also present.

Bengaluru, Jan 22: JD(S) president HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday termed the surrender of the accused in the alleged planting of an explosive at Mangalore Airport as another act of a drama and said that the incident should serve as an Eye-opener for the Prime minister Narendra Modi over the prevailing unemployment problem in the country.

Addressing a press conference, the Janta Dal (Secular) leader said that the surrendered man, who had allegedly planted explosive at the airport, was an employed youth and PM needs to address the prevailing unemployment problem in the country.

The former chief minister said that the accused have higher education qualifications and belonged to the Hindu community, disapproving that only people belonging to the Muslim community resort to violence.

Udupi, Apr 18: The Adamaru Mutt and Mutt-owned educational institutions donated fifty five lakhs, fifty five thousand, five hundred and fifty five rupees to the PM-CARES Fund on Friday.

Sri Vishwakapriyattirtha Sripada, while donating the amount, delivered the message that in these difficult times in our country, the government has no sources of tax revenue but the cost of various departments especially public health expenses are increasing.

We leave three meals a week and distribute the money saved to those in need. We pray that India becomes the first COVID-19-free country in the world with all our efforts.

Bengaluru,  Mar 26: The nationwide lockdown in the view of coronavirus outbreak has driven some people to the edge. In Karnataka, within less than 24 hours, two cases of people creating trouble for police personnel have come to light.

On Wednesday, a middle-aged man was shot in his leg by the police after he tried to assault two police constables of Sanjaynagar police station. The police constables were identified as Manjunatha and Basavararaju.
The accused reportedly breached the check post at Bhoopasandra. He and his friends were over-speeding and performing stunts on bikes. When the policemen tried to secure them after giving them a chase, they attacked the cops.

When they were taken into custody, one of them again tried to escape and hurled stones and bricks on the cops. In order to prevent further assault, the police then fired two rounds – one in the air and the second one on his left leg.
