City police blog disappoints visitors

July 24, 2013

Mangalore, Jul 24: Though it was created with the intention of disseminating news about crime in Mangalore city limits regularly to interested patrons, the blog of Mangalore City Police has been irregular in its updates from some time.

To provide information on different crimes that have occurred in the district such as murder, robbery, burglary, extortion or rape, the then-Superintendent of Police B Dayananda had launched the blog of Dakshina Kannada district police on December 8, 2005.

Then, the blog also played a role in the district becoming a pioneer in the use of modern technology in disseminating information to people.

When the Mangalore Commissionerate came into existence with the installation of Seemanth Kumar as Mangalore City Police Commissioner in 2011, a separate blog was created specifically for updating crime news occurring in city limits.

However, the Mangalore City Police blog has become inactive and lagged behind in its updates compared to its district police counterpart. Although regular so far, the city blog saw only 16 posts in the month of June compared to 31 posts in the blog of district police.

More astonishing, the city blog contains a lone post, while the district blog has regular posts numbering 24 in July, i.e. one for each day.

The city blog holds a single post for the month of July, featuring the portrait of a suspect in the recent Moodbidri Jain temple theft case, which is disappointing to say the least.

After a post was updated on June 29, the next one was dated July 7, and no posts were updated since. No information has been provided on the theft case that took place at the Jain temple in Moodbidri in which precious idols and diamonds worth crores of rupees were stolen and the subsequent arrests.

The status of the blog in question has exposed the working of the city police department. Even the past updates in the blog have been posted after a couple of days.

Even if the department claims shortage of personnel to keep the blog active, there are some who question if it was right to stop updating information on the blog.

Expectations proved wrong

People of Mangalore were of the opinion that the working of city police would improve once the Commissionerate was formed. However, these expectations were not to be met. Even if the number of police officers in the city police department has increased, the graph of crime rate has not gone down. Crime still continues unabated in the city, with the general feeling among the public that criminals do not fear the police system in the district.

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has rationalised the syllabus for classes IX to XII for the academic year 2020-21 by up to 30 per cent to make up for academic loss caused due to COVID-19, Union HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank' announced on Tuesday.

"Looking at the extraordinary situation prevailing in the country and the world, CBSE was advised to revise the curriculum and reduce course load for the students of classes IX to XII.

"To aid the decision, a few weeks back I also invited suggestions from all educationists on the reduction of syllabus for students and I am glad to share that we received more than 1.5K suggestions. Thank you, everyone, for the overwhelming response," Nishank tweeted.

"Considering the importance of learning achievement, it has been decided to rationalize syllabus up to 30 per cent by retaining the core concepts," he added.

What benefit govt is giving us so that we can transfer the same goodness to our workers? Or are the funds only to buy and sell MLA?
