Mangalore, Dec 31: Dakshina Kannada district-in-charge minister B Ramanath Rai directed the district authorities to find alternate methods to increase the storage capacity of the newly constructed second vented dam at Thumbay, as the process of land acquisition around the dam would be delayed.

In a review meeting of the progress of various developmental works in Mangalore City Corporation limits here on Tuesday, he said that the land acquisition process could be delayed as the Land Acquisition Act 2013 would be enforced from January 1. This might delay the construction of the dam, he said.

The Executive Engineer in charge of the Thumbay vented dam work said that the civil work of the vented dam will be completed by May 2014. The delay in sanctioning the remaining fund is delaying the work progress, the engineer said.

He said that the water could be stored only upto four metres in the dam as against the capacity of seven metres, until the land acquisition process was completed in the submerging area.

Deputy Commissioner A B Ibrahim confirmed that the MCC had not yet started the process of land acquisition for the second vented dam and after January 1, it would become nearly impossible.

MLA J R Lobo suggested looking for an alternate method to increase the water storage capacity in the dam, without acquiring the land around it.

The district-in-charge minister instructed the authorities to work on the idea of constructing temporary check dams on rivulets that join the river, so as to ensure that water does not flow in other direction.

Note that intrinsic value drives the capital allocation decision at least as much as risk
tolerance.For over a century, the S&P 500 (and its antecedents) have reverted to a mean of about 16.5 times profits.

It appears possible to somewhat forecast your 20-year financial investment return from the present index P/E ratio.

Bantwal, Jun 26: A day after expressing gratitude for the overwhelming response from students for the SSLC examinations, Karnataka Minister for Primary and Secondary Education S Suresh Kumar on Friday took to Twitter to laud a student who didn’t let his physical hurdles deter him from writing the examination.

Sharing image of the student, Kaushik, who wrote the SSLC examination at Bantwal’s SVS High School, the Minister said that he was taken aback by the boy’s spirit for writing the exam independently without relying on anyone’s help. Such individuals give new meaning to life. Others should learn from this.

In the picture, Kaushik is seen seated on the floor and using his toes to write answers.

Davanagere, Apr 8: BJP MLA from Honnali constituency, MP Renukacharya, said that the government should not ignore those who attended Tablighi Jamaat event in Delhi and are escaping detection, and it is not wrong if the person is shot.

"Anyone who attended Tablighi meet, is not coming out for medical checkups and is escaping detection. The government should not ignore them. Even if he is shot, it is not wrong. Otherwise, the virus will spread throughout the entire country. In China it started with one person," Renukacharya said on Tuesday.

"We are suffering because someone is not coming for check-up. I request them to come voluntarily to the doctors and District Magistrates. Not all minorities are terrorists and not all of them are anti-nationals," he added.

A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking direction for the government to impose a complete ban on all activities of the Tablighi Jamaat with immediate effect.

Over 1,000 coronavirus cases in India are linked to Tablighi Jamaat gathering. Hundreds of people who are related to Tablighi Jamaat have been quarantined.
