Mangalore, April 3: The Bijapur based Karnataka State Women's University has planned to establish four regional centres in prominent cities of the State including the coastal city of Mangalore.

The new vice-chancellor of the University Meena Chandavarkar has stated that the regional centres will be established in Bangalore, Mangalore, Shimoga and Hubli.

She informed media that the decision to start four regional centres has already been approved at the University syndicate meeting and the proposal has been sent to the government.

As a step towards women empowerment, the University will introduce 11 new courses from the next academic year including tourism, hotel management, fashion designing, yoga, photography, fine arts and basic sciences.

In order to undertake quality research, it is proposed to set up a research centre besides a distance education department, she said in a press release.

The centre will study the economic condition of the weavers' community of North Karnataka and also take up a comprehensive study of the Devadasis and find out solutions for their problems, she added.

She said the University, which is now functioning from Bijapur, will be shifted to Toravi within two years.

BJP, Congress and JD(S) sink differences, to fight for Mahadayi

News Network

January 6,2020

Hubballi, Jan 6: Elected representatives of the BJP, Congress and JD(S) on Sunday decided to sink their differences and fight unitedly for Karnataka’s rightful share in the Mahadayi and Kalasa-Banduri water dispute with Goa.

The meeting convened by JD(S) MLC Basavaraj Horatti here saw participation of BJP ministers Prahlad Joshi and Jagadish Shettar, Congress and JD(S) lawmakers, among others.

After a 70-minute closed door meeting, MLC Horatti told reporters that they discussed the water dispute in detail and decided to take steps based on inputs from legal and technical experts on the rightful apportioning of water. “Today, we took the first big step towards the overall development of the region, unencumbered by political divisions,” he said.

Though the air was filled with a sense of jubilation as the issue had united seemingly hostile political parties on one side, a few activists expressed disappointment that the meeting failed to set a timeline to resolve the dispute.
