Bengaluru, Aug 4: With preparations underway for conducting exams for the final semester/ year students in the state, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr CN Ashwathnarayan on Monday directed the respective universities to conduct exams for the backlog papers as well.
"In the wake of COVID-19, it has been decided to hold exams only for the students of final semester/year courses. It has come to our notice that some universities have decided against conducting exams for final year students who have a backlog to clear from previous semesters. This is unpardonable," the Deputy Chief Minister said.
"Our intention is to see that the final year students finish their course. In the present situation, conducting only final semester exams won't help. We have to help the students in clearing their backlogs," added Ashwathnarayan, directing all universities to compulsorily conduct these exams.
Meanwhile, Ashwathnarayan thanked the staff and officials of various government departments who were responsible for successfully conducting the CET exams even amidst the difficult situation in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic.
"In all, 1,94,419 students had registered for the CET exams, of which 1,75,428 wrote the exams. The percentage of students who took up the exams this year was equivalent to that of the previous years, in normal times," the DCM informed.
"After we successfully conducted the exams, Arunachal Pradesh is going to conduct the Public Service Commission exams on the lines of how we successfully conducted the exams. Likewise, even our KPSC has said it will conduct the exams. We must appreciate the good work of the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA), which has set an example for others," Ashwathnarayan said.
The deputy chief minister said that 33 colleges in various districts across the state faced shortage of land and that it is the responsibility of the District Commissioners (DCs) to get the lands sanctioned for all these colleges.
In Bagalkot district alone land has not been sanctioned for six degree colleges, he said.
Reacting to this, Bagalkot DC Captain Rajendra assured to look into the matter as soon as he receives the proposal from department officials.
"Similarly, there is shortage of land for five Diploma colleges and 28 ITI colleges in different parts of the state. The DCs must immediately pay attention to this. Once they get the land, buildings will come up within no time," the Karnataka deputy chief minister said.
Kannur, Aug 20: A young Bharatiya Janata Party worker died when a country bomb which he was allegedly making exploded at his residence at Kottayampoil village near Kuthuparamba in Kannur district Saturday.

BJP is lost in its arrogance
What you cultivate that you harvest. BJP may lose all assembly elections in future including LS. Let them be an arrogant tusker for few more days

Haha there is no shortage for babu bajrangrees in India who are ultra nationalists ....today we might have tears ...but table will turn towards Islamic millitants for sure ...
This is what happens, they do but minorities are labelled as traitors
NAREN LOST HIS TWO BROTHERS....! STILL WE FEEL PITY...
Natasha....well said... God bless you .... May Almighty show us the way of humanity....... In your list of allegations, just add one more point.....Place the meat bag in Naga Bana and blame the Minorities.....this is what happened in Bhatkal recently....
VIREN..........Yes He is victim of Terrorism because he is scape goat in RSS terror Game ....same like Praveen /Prashanth poojary
@Viren, exactly you are right.. and also the cow killed Prashanth Poojary.. simply media blaming Banjrang Daakus and VH Saddists as murderers. Dont be blind in religion that you cannot make what is right from wrong
Wa Makaru wa Makara Allah wa’Allahu Khairul Makereen’ (Quran: Surah Aali Imran 3:54) 'They planned and Allah planned and Allah is the best of planners’.
our country is marching towards VINASH because of these Hindutva Aatankies (BJP, RSS, VHP, Shiv Sena, Ram Sena, Gay Rakshak etc.) They are treating all non Hindus as their slaves (Dalits, Chiristens & Muslims) & the governing BJP & MP Mr. Mozi are giving them full support. Gujarat under Mr.Mozi in past was same against Muslim.They are playing dirty politics.
Suno na Cheddi marmar...
ki yeh dhamake
Kuch bhi nahi hai...
aage tumhaare
Aaj se chappal pe mere...
raaj tumhaara....
Cheddi tumhara
What a great news. After Udupi incident, this news will surely cause at least a mild heart attack for the party of thugs.
Thank you God for averting a terror attack and punishing terrorist
Ethics of journalism is murdered here. Deekshit is a victim. not terrorist. Kannur is a place where PFI had organised terror camp years ago. Central government must intervene and expose the reality.
You traffic cows
You make bombs
You hoist Pak flag in India
You raise anti national slogans
You kill innocents
Then why the f*** you put the blame on Muslims???
