Dharmasthala, June 22: A Memorandum of Understanding will be signed between the Dharmasthala Trust and the Union Rural Development Ministry, to look after Rural Self-employment Training Institutes (RSETI) managed by the Union government.

During the tri-decennial celebrations programme of Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala Rural Development Project (SKDRDP) at Dharmasthala on Friday, Union Minister for Rural Development Jairam Ramesh requested Dharmadhikari Dr D Veerendra Heggade to take over the 527 RSETIs opened by the Ministry, across the nation.


Dharma_10Expressing dissatisfaction over the functioning of the institutes set up a year ago, he asked the Dharmasthala Trust to manage them.

“The Finance Ministry will provide the necessary finance for these institutes which have been set up at a cost of Rs one crore each. While the Rural Development Ministry will provide moral support, the banks will provide the manpower and the Dharmasthala Trust should provide management assistance,” he requested.

Agreeing in principle to the proposal, Dr Heggade said that as per the MoU, the Trust will have to achieve a success rate of 40 per cent in the first year, 50 per cent in second year and 70 per cent in the third year.

He said the Trust will manage these institutes under the monitoring cell set up by the Ministry which will also be looked after by the Dharmasthala Trust. Earlier, speaking with mediapersons, Jairam Ramesh insisted upon declaring Kuduremukh National Park atTiger Reserve area.

It is of great necessity to declare the Park as a Tiger Reserve, specially in the backdrop of growing naxal menace. The project demands the eviction of the families from the forest. As many as 14,000 families reside in the forest.

Among them, 600 applications from the families willing to come out of the forest had been pending for the last ten years. The rehabilitated families will be provided with minimum a compensation of Rs 10 lakh each. However, there will not be any forceful eviction. The process will be carried out in a most democratic way, he said

Gokak, Jul 25: A JMFC magistrate here issued summons to the Chief minister B S Yediyurappa in relation to a complaint for the alleged violation of election code of conduct, during by-elections to the Gokak Assembly seat held last year.

According to official sources, a complaint had been registered against Chief minister B S Yediyurappa during the election campaign, under the People Representative Act, for allegedly wooing voters during electioneering.

The Gokak Police, who had investigated the case, however had submitted a 'B' report to the court letting off the Chief minister from the charges.

However the Magistrate, rejecting the Police report, had maintained that there exists prima facie case against the accused and issued summons to appear before the court on September one, the sources added.

Bengaluru, Jun 5: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Thursday said government employees and owners of tractors and other vehicles must return the BPL ration cards immediately, failing which stringent legal action would be initiated against them.

The CM issued directions in this regard to officials as he conducted a review meeting of the Food and Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs department today. Proper supply of ration must be ensured to eligible beneficiaries and action has to be taken to prevent misuse of the facility by those not eligible, Yediyurappa was quoted as saying by his office in a release.

Nearly 63,000 ration cards were cancelled before the COVID-19 outbreak, he noted and directed officials to initiate a campaign to cancel all illegal ration cards. "this campaign would help in curtailing the financial burden on the State's reserves," he added.

In the backdrop of coronavirus pandemic, both the Central and State governments have distributed sufficient quantities of ration, and about 95 percent ration cardholders have availed the benefit, the release said. Under the Chief Ministers Anila Bhagya Scheme, 98,079 beneficiaries have been given 3 gas cylinders free of cost, it said.

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Amid the rising number of COVID-19 cases in Karnataka, the state's health department issued fresh guidelines for the disposal of bodies of COVID patients.

"Although an increased risk of COVID infection from a dead body to health workers or family members who follow standard precautions while handling the body is unlikely, the lack of scientific data requires the utmost care to avoid the inadvertent spread of COVID-19 during these times," the statement from the health department's press release read, emphasising on the dignity of the dead and the religious and cultural tradition.

The 23-page press release elaborated on guidelines regarding testing, handling of dead bodies and other specificities in relation to the management of COVID-19 bodies.

"Testing should not be insisted in every case of death, but only when they have a recorded history of influenza-like symptoms. The body should be handed over to the family members/ relatives in a dignified manner immediately after swab collection and hospitals should provide handouts with a list of dos and don'ts in English and Kannada laying down relevant information," the statement said.

It added, "At the mortuary, health care workers, mortuary staff and the family of the deceased body shall not come in direct contact with the dead body and must wear full personal protective equipment (PPE). If the family or relative are for any reason unable to cremate or bury the body, the local health authority shall arrange for the dignified last rites as per the religious traditions of the family."

Regarding autopsies (post mortem) on COVID-19 bodies, the state department said that they should be avoided, except in necessary circumstances.

The statement also gave detailed guidelines regarding the appropriate recording of COVID-19 deaths in line with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines.

Additionally, the health department made a statement about the admission procedure for COVID positive patients referred by other district administrations saying, "It is now mandatory for all the referrals from the BBMP admission and discharge of COVID positive patients to be done through the online COVID Hospital Bed Management System (CHBMS)."

The state's count of coronavirus cases was 1,51,449 in the past 24 hours.

So far, a total of 2,804 people have died due to COVID-19 in the state, while the average recovery rate in Karnataka is 49.3 per cent.
