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, Jun 20: Amid calls for boycott of Chinese products in the backdrop of Indo-China border face-off, former Karnataka chief minister HD Kumaraswamy sought to know from the BJP government in Karnataka the status of the "Compete with China" policy brought during the previous JDS-Congress rule.

Boycotting Chinese products was not easy like sloganeering but required a creative policy and the coalition government's initiative was a model for it, he said in a series of tweets.

"After the border skirmish, some people got the realisation to boycott the Chinese products but during my tenure (as chief minister) a serious thought was given to it," the JDS leader said.

He was apparently referring to growing clamour for boycott of China-made products after a violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in Ladakh left 20 Indian Army personnel dead early this week.

Mr Kumaraswamy said he had brought the Compete With China policy to effectively deal with the neighbouring country.

"My government's objective was to offer jobs to the local residents, snatch away market opportunities for China and discard the Chinese products."

"However, what has the present government done to our scheme? It is not known whether it is still continuing or not," Mr Kumaraswamy said.

The Kumarswamy government had identified clusters and earmarked Rs 2,000 crore for their development.

Bengaluru, May 18: Senior Congress leader and former Union Minister Mallikarjuna Kharge on Monday slammed the State Government’s decision to appoint administrative committees to Panchayats, which completes their five-year term, shortly.

Speaking to media persons, the Congress leader described the State Government’s decision on appointing committees as a ‘death knell ‘ to the basic characters of the Panchayat bodies, which were elected on a non-party basis.

Strongly recommending the BJP-led government to desist from its decision, Kharge urged Chief minister B S Yediyurappa to extend the term of the elected bodies of the Panchayats by six months.
