Mangalore, September 1: Dakshina Kannada Zilla Panchayat Chief Executive Officer Dr K N Vijayaprakash said that all the donations given by the donors to the government schools would be henceforth 'stored' in a special software meant for the purpose to keep a track of all the donations received by the schools.

Delivering presidential address at the felicitation of best SDMCs in the district at a programme jointly organised by DK Zilla Panchayat and Department of Public Instructions at DIET on Friday, he said that the schools will be utilising the software meant for donation details from this academic year.

“Attempts have been made to provide more exposure to the government school children in the form of Krishi Darshana, where the children are taken to farm land to understand the basics of farming. We have received highest funds under Sarva Shiksha Abhiyana this year and a specific amount will be utilised for building the compound walls. The government schools in the district have received Rs 5.50 crore as donation from donors and from MLA and MPs fund,” informed the CEO.

Education Department Assistant Director of Mysore division, Anand appreciated the efforts of School Development Monitoring Committees (SDMCs) in the over all growth of schools in the district.

Receiving the felicitation, Devasya Padur SDMC President Adinath Jain shared that though their school had only 38 children, the one quality that made their school stand apart is the strong bond between the teachers, students, parents and SDMC members.

Perlampady school SDMC President Vishnu Bhat said that the felicitation had given them a moral boost to continue the good work. “Our SDMC has been working for the welfare of the school facing all odds,” he said.

Bengaluru, Feb 14: BJP leader and Karnataka Revenue Minister R Ashok refused to comment on the Bellary car accident case, allegedly involving his son, saying that the matter was still under investigation and that they did not have anything to do with the said car.

The car crash took place on February 10, when a speeding red Mercedes Benz allegedly driven by Ashok's son rammed into a tea stall by the roadside killing two people. While a 16-year-old boy Ravi died on the spot, one of the car's passengers was also killed in the accident.

"I came to know about the incident and also heard that two people have died and a few others have sustained injuries. Everybody is equal under the law. It is not fair to comment as a minister when the case is being investigated," Ashok told reporters here on Thursday.

However, the minister avoided answering questions about his son's presence in the car and said that they had "no connection" with the car.

"The case is in the investigation stage, I don't want to comment on anything. My son's name is not present in the FIR. We have no connection with the car," he said.

Superintendent of Police CK Baba told reporters that Ashok's son was not present in the car.

"There was no senior BJP leader and Revenue Ministers's son in the car. We will not hide anything and the case will be investigated," Baba said.

Bengaluru, Jan 30: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who reached the national capital on Thursday, said he will discuss the much-awaited Ministry expansion with the BJP high command.

"It's been long that I visited Delhi. I will meet the party national president J P Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah and take their suggestions on the cabinet expansion," Yediyurappa told reporters.

The chief minister said he will also call on Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and discuss about development issues related to Karnataka.

Yediyurappa has been anxiously waiting for the high command's nod to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants.

Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in cabinet expansion, alleging that he was weak and that the administration had collapsed.

As the chief minister has already made it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on in the party for the remaining ministerial berths.

Currently, there are 18 Ministers, including the chief minister in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant.
