Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner AB Ibrahim made this announcement in the presence of minister for forest, environment and ecology B Ramanath Rai during a meeting held at deputy commissioner's office here on Tuesday.

The DC said that alternative arrangements in the form of traffic diversion have been made for the movement of vehicles between Mangaluru and Bengaluru.

All ordinary buses and light vehicles between Mangaluru and Bengaluru should ply through Charmadi Ghat.

Luxury buses to the destinations should take Madikeri route. Tankers, trucks and all types of heavy vehicles will be diverted via Honnavar - Bengaluru road, he said adding that the road will be reopened after the completion of work and the time frame will be announced later.

Earlier the district administration had decided to close the road for repair from December 25. However, the date has been extended due to technical reasons.

Bengaluru, Jan 12: Janata Dal (Secular) chief and former prime minister H D Deve Gowda on Sunday refuted reports of him contesting in the Rajya Sabha elections and added that he is more concerned about strengthening his party in Karnataka.

"I am not interested in going to Rajya Sabha. My concern is to build and strengthen the party in the region to the best of my ability. I had declared earlier that I will not contest elections anymore," Deve Gowda told ANI here.

"My party MP D Kupendra Reddy is there in the Rajya Sabha as of now and further decisions will be taken by the party. In March 2019, towards the end of the 16th Lok Sabha I had declared that I will not contest any more elections," Deve Gowda added.

Four Rajya Sabha seats in Karnataka are about to fall vacant in June this year as two of Congress, one of BJP and JD(S) MPs retire.
