Mangalore, October 23: Subodh Yadav, an IAS officer of 1999 batch formally took charge as the Deputy Commissioner of Dakshina Kannada district on Saturday, October 23.

This is Mr Yadav's second stint in the district, where he worked as the Chief Executive Officer of Zilla Panchayat a few years ago.

Head Quarters Assistant to DC Prabhakar Sharma welcomed the new DC with a bouquet at around 1:40 pm in front of the DC office.

Yadav was posted as Deputy Commissioner of DK district on October 20, when V Ponnuraj was transferred and posted as DC of Shimoga. Ponnuraj had left the city on Friday.

After assuming his new office, Mr Yadav said he would take forward all the development works initiated by his predecessor. He appreciated many land mark projects including computerisation and paperless office system, which was initiated for the first in the state by Ponnuraj.

“Many projects and works are under progress in the district including concretisation of roads in different parts of the city. And many projects are still pending. I will study the entire situation at least for a week before taking any crucial decision”, he said.

Asked how he plans to tackle the major problems of the district including land mafia amidst political pressure, he said: “Let me go through all the problems thoroughly first. Give me some time to study the situation before planning anything. There is a solution for each and every problem”.

He said the city of Mangalore has undergone a rapid change compared to a few years ago when he was in the city as the CEO of ZP. “Many roads have been concretised and a large number of huge buildings and skyscrapers have been constructed across the city”, he said.

Mr Yadav, who knows English, Hindi and Kannada, hails from Kanpur district in Uttar Pradesh. Earlier he served as the DC of South Division of Bangalore Mahanagara palike, Kodagu, Chikkaballapur and Gadag. He also worked as the Private Secretary in Union Ministry of Law and Justice in the recent past. Before passing IAS, Yadav has done his BE in Mechanical Engineering and M.

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

Young energetic Muslim brothers present in Dk ,please note we need young leaders to lead us . Wake up ... and take over .

We respect ur decision sir.

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
