Mangaluru, Jan 17: In view of the recent revision in the SSLC syllabus textbooks from the state syllabus to that recommended by National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) for Class 10 students, academic staff of Vikas P U College, Mangaluru have jointly compiled a handbook to help the students prepare well for their final board examinations.

The handbook ‘Score More’ is a compilation of all chapters from the four core subjects – Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics in textbooks of Class 10.

Releasing the book at a press conference here on Saturday, Chairman of Vikas Education Trust and former minister Krishna Palemar said that the book aimed at reducing the stress caused among students due to the sudden change in syllabus in textbooks prepared for Class 10. This handbook is prepared with the important sections of chapters in a capsule format and makes studying simpler for students during their preparation for board exams, he said.

He said that the compiled book would be distributed free of cost at the campus premises for SSLC students. A total of 10,000 copies have been printed in the first phase, which will be distributed to few schools in the district as well as other districts in the state, he said, adding that the handbook would be printed for Kannada-medium students based on the demand.

He informed that the handbook could be collected from the college campus by SSLC students free of cost before February 28. Dean of Academics Jinu, Ananth Prabhu, Sharath and Yathin Shetty were present on the occasion.

Feb 26: The Tamil Nadu government on Tuesday claimed that it prevented Karnataka from discussing the contentious Mekedatu reservoir issue at the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) meeting held in New Delhi.

Besides the representatives of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka at the fifth meeting of CWMA, presided over by Central Water Commission Chairman R K Jain, officials of Kerala and Puducherry also participated.

CWMA member and TN PWD Secretary K Manivasan told reporters after the meeting that the state government prevented Karnataka from discussing the dam issue by pointing out the pending petitions in the Supreme Court against the project filed by the E Palaniswami government.

"We have told participants of the meeting that Mekedatu reservoir will be against the interests of Tamil Nadu and its farmers. Our consistent stand is that it should not be built at any cost. Finally the issue was not discussed in the meeting," Manivasan said.

The Mekedatu reservoir is proposed to be constructed by Karnataka across Cauvery river near Mekedatu, about 110 km from Bengaluru, in Kanakapura taluk.

It was first proposed along with Shivanasamudra hydro power project at Shimsa in 2003 with an intention to use the water for a hydro power station and supply drinking water to Bengaluru city. It was designed to store 67 tmc feet of water.

While Tamil Nadu is claiming that the construction of a balancing reservoir will disturb Cauvery water flow to the state affecting irrigation, Karnataka says the project is basically designed to take care of the drinking water needs of Bengaluru after releasing water to Tamil Nadu as per the quantum specified by the Cauvery water disputes tribunal.

Bengaluru, Feb 26: The police remand of student activist Amulya Leona Noronha, who was produced before a Magistrate, after a no-show at the Metropolitan Magistrate Court, was extended by 10 more days.

The Fifth Additional Metropolitan Magistrate at the Magistrate's home on Tuesday night had remanded her to police custody for 10 days, less than the 14 days asked for by the Special Investigative Team, considering that she has already spent over four days in judicial custody.

Amulya Noronha, a student of NMKRV College for Women, had raised pro-Pakistan slogans by shouting ''Pakistan Zindabad'' at an anti-CAA protest in Bangalore on 20th February following which the city police filed a case of sedition against her.
