Instilling confidence into young minds and students Dr CN Manjunath, Director, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular sciences and Research, Bengaluru, advised them to avoid mobile phones.

“Mobile phone is one of the biggest hurdles to achieve the goals for younger generation. Even though mobile phone is a means of communication, the students are being addicted to this device,” he said suggesting a ban on mobile phone for students at least till they complete Class X.

He also warned against consumption of fast food. “Unscientific lifestyle and food habits have increased stress which in turn has resulted in the increase of cardiovascular diseases,” he lamented.

Former Indian cricketer Syed Mujtaba Hussain Kirmani, speaking on the occasion, applauded the service of TRF and said that the “real heroes are those who lift the underprivileged, deserving and needy”.

Calling upon the youth to work hard and constantly move towards their goals, he said: “There is a hero within every human being and we should recognise it.”

He also urged the youth not to ignore humanity and human values while perusing their goals. "Whatever your goals may be, it is important to be human being first,” he said adding that individuals should think broadly.

He said that people like Paralympic World Champion Malathi Holla and Tennis Player Prabhu, who are specially abled inspired not only special people but also others, with their yeoman service to humanity. They have come over their physical limitations to achieve great things in life, he added.

Babar Ali, said to be the youngest principal in the world, who started a school when he was just 16, was a centre of attraction in the event. Hailing from Murshidabad, one of the poorest districts of India located in West Bengal, he said that he love people of Karnataka too because they had helped him build a school.

He said that we should adopt good role models like Swami Vivekananda to be inspired by them. While calling upon the youth to work with commitment, dedication, he reminded them to cultivate love towards the less privileged and try to uplift them.

Syed Mohammed Beary, CMD, Bearys Group said that sacrifice is the other side of success. Leadership comes with clarity of mind, which comes with purity of heart.

IAS?Officer Mohammed Musharraf Ali Faruqui, Home of Hope, Bengaluru, Chairman T Raja and IISc, Bengaluru, Scientist, Shiva Kumar were present among others.

Bengaluru, Jul 20: The Karnataka Congress on Monday slammed the State government's decision to distribute beds used by COVID-19 patients to Government-run hostels and called it as a "ridiculous" decision.

"It's ridiculous that the Govt plans to distribute beds used by COVID patients to Govt run hostels," read a tweet from the Karnataka Congress president DK Shivkumar.

He further said that the Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa should give these beds to his ministers, MLAs and officials.

He further went on to urge parents and students to speak "against this move" by the State government.

"Let CM @BSYBJP give these beds to his Ministers, MLAs & Officials! We are launching a movement against this Govt & appeal to parents, students & youths to speak against this move," Shivkumar's tweet read further.

Along with the tweet he also shared a video as well.
