Mangalore, February 14: District in-charge minister, Krishna J Palemar unveiled a plaque to mark the construction of a new Suratkal police station, in the presence of senior police officers and local politicians at a functioin here on Sunday.


City police commissioner, Seemant Kumar Singh, laid the foundation stone at a plot next to Govinda Dasa College and spoke about the ambitious plan to modernize the police force and transforming policemen into harbingers of peace.


The function was attended among others by Mangalore MP, Nalin Kumar Kateel, MLA, Abhayachandra Jain, former MLA, K Vijayakumar Shetty, Dakshina Kannada district commissioner, Subodh Yadav, city mayor, Rajani Dugganna, deputy commissioner of police (DCP) of the city crime intelligence bureau, Mutturaya, Pabambur sub-division DCP, Puttamadaiah, Panambur circle inspector of police, Valentine D'Souza, Mulky circle police inspector, Shivaprakash naik Mangalore traffic inspector and Manjunath Shetty.


Meanwhile, a design change suggested by Palemar to the new building of Surathkal police station could delay its construction by a few months. The present building design approved by police chief office in Bangalore has provision for two floors ground and first, each covering 1,410 sq.ft. The project cost is Rs 47 lakh. Palemar wants the building to have a cellar for vehicle parking.


The minister's concern was driven by the fact that police stations need space for parking of vehicles both of personnel and visitors and also to keep seized vehicles. While instructing Mangalore tahsildar Manjunath to provide additional 10 cents abutting NH 17 to the police station in addition to the 10 cents already allotted, Palemar promised that he would meet the additional construction cost needed for the cellar.


Palemar assured city police chief Seemanth Kumar Singh that he would use his good offices to ensure that additional funds needed for construction of the cellar and the necessary approvals for the building design change materialized at the earliest. The Karnataka State Police Housing Corporation engineers said they would start the work on the building the moment the police chief office approved the building design change.


Palemar also lauded DC Subodh Yadav for expediting transfer of government land to police department for construction of police station building. One acre of land has been allotted to police department for construction of quarters for police personnel at Katipalla and steps will be taken to sanction Rs 2 crore needed for construction of integrated police complex at Panambur as well as new police station building at Kavoor, he said.


City police is geared to meet all law and order challenges, Palemar said, adding steps will be taken to set up police outposts in sensitive areas. The Mangalore City Corporation will take steps to provide basic facilities to the new police station building coming up in Surathkal, Panambur and Kavoor, minister added.

Udupi, Apr 24: While several state governments and NGOs are actively working to provide essentials to the needy amid the COVID-19 lockdown, a fisherwoman in Karnataka's Udupi has proved that even a small gesture of help for others can make a huge difference in the society.
A fisherwoman, Sharadakka, distributed rice to 140 needy families in her neighbourhood during the ongoing lockdown. The contribution was made by spending all her life savings amounting to Rs 30,000. The amount was saved by her over a period of time in an effort to build a house for herself.
On Thursday Udupi Deputy Commissioner G. Jagadeesh visited her and ensured help to build her house.
"Spending her meagre earnings, Sharadakka generously filled many empty stomachs amid the nation-wide lockdown, which is a matter of pride," said the Deputy Commissioner.
