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, Feb 14: Karnataka Legislative Assembly Speaker Vishvesha Hegde Kageri on Friday announced continuation of ban on private TV channels from live coverage of the Budget Session being held this Month and next month.

Addressing a press conference here, Mr Kageri said that the ban was imposed on the lines of practice in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha in the Parliament. Private channels will not be allowed to cover live on going session instead they will be provided with clippings by the concerned Department as was done during the previous Session.

For the first time in the history the BJP government, which had come to power for the second time in the state last year after pulling down Congress-JDS coalition government, had banned live coverage of the session by private channels and despite Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa's appeal the ban was not lifted.

Chamaranagara, Mar 29: As many as 595 Tamil Nadu-based fishermen, who were working in Mangaluru, crossed the Karnataka border and reached their state via Chamarajanagar on Saturday.

Police said following the lockdown, the fishermen had left Mangaluru in more than 20 vehicles. The fishermen crossed the Karnataka border through Punajur check-post. However, the vehicles returned after dropping them near Hasanur check-post in Tamil Nadu.

As the fishermen had no proper documents, they were stopped by Tamil Nadu Police. However, the police allowed them after screening. The Tamil Nadu government arranged vehicles to ferry them, said a police officer.
