Mangalore, April 2: The lawyers in Mangalore, in association with State Lawyers Parishat will conduct a two-day 'Advocate's Conference' at Loyola Hall in St Aloysius College on April 22 and 23.

Chief Minister Sadananda Gowda , Law Minister Suresh Kumar, Chief Justice of Odisha High Court Gopal Gowda, Judges of Karnataka High Court Nagamohan Das , Abdul Nazeer , Indrakala and A S Boppanna will participate in the conference.

About 2,000 lawyers from Kodagu, Udupi, North Karnataka, Shimoga and Hassan will participate in the conference, said S. P. Changappa, President of the Mangalore Bar Association at a press meet here on Monday. Ganesh Shenoy, secretary, Shreedevi, Joint Secretary and Vice president Narasimha Hegde were present.

The construction work of the building of Mangalore District Court has still not been completed even after six years of its commencement. After demolishing the old building, more than six courts were shifted to the Mangalore City Corporation building and other places. For the last six years lawyers have been made to run from one building to the other for their cases. Even though the Chief Minister and Law minister have taken note of this there has been no progress in the construction work of the lawyer's building. Even in this year's budget there has been no allocation of funds for this work, Mr. Chengappa said.

Being a lawyer and also hailing from D K District, Sadananda Gowda must immediately release funds for the construction work and from June 1, the courts which have been shifted to Mangalore City Corporation building and other places must be transferred to the new building. “Failing which lawyers will have to take recourse to protest,” he warned.

Bengaluru, Jan 1: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah on Wednesday slammed the Centre on the issue of fare hike announcement by Indian Railways.

"Increase in Train fares is a New Year gift by Narendra Modi government to common people," Siddaramaiah tweeted.

"This will further dent the developmental prospects as Railways form a backbone of Transportation. Instead, the govt should have gifted us the values of our Constitution by upholding it," he added.
