CM lauds Mangalore media

February 12, 2012

Mangalore, February 12: Print and electronic media should bring out the news without twisting or exaggerating the facts, said Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda

Speaking after formally inaugurating the new hall of Patrika Bhavan here on Sunday, he said though the press club belonged to media, it was dedicated to people of entire Dakshina Kannada district, as it disseminates information to the people.

He said that the State government has sanctioned Rs 25 lakh each for the construction of Patrika Bhavan in those districts where there was no such facility for journalists. Apart from this grant, Rs 12.5 lakh each has been sanctioned for the facelift of the existing Patrika Bhavans.

He said that State Government has always encouraged journalists in many ways. Increasing the pension from Rs 1000 to Rs 2000 and conferring awards, etc were the favours of BJP government, he said.

Praising the Mangalore media for what he called 'their excellent work', he said the journalists here still have to play a responsible role in the future as the city is undergoing a speedy growth.

Dakshina Kannada District Working Journalists' Union president P B Harish Rai presided over the function.

Deputy Speaker of Karnataka Legislative Assembly N Yogish Bhat, MCC Mayor Praveen Anchan, Mulky-Moodbidri MLA Abhaya Chandra Jain, Mangalore MLA UT Khader, and Bantwal MLA B Ramanath Rai were among the chief guests.

DK district Deputy Commissioner N S Channappa Gowda and Commissioner of Police Seemanth Kumar Sigh were also present.

Police stations in Dakshina Kannada, Udupi to be sanitized in a phased manner

May 26,2020

Mangaluru, May 26: In the wake of mounting case of covid-19 in the coastal Karnataka, the police department has decided to sanitise the police stations in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts.

The superintendents of police in both the districts have been instructed to take necessary steps for sanitisation of stations in a phased manner, according to Devajyoti Ray, inspector-general of police (Western Range).

Meanwhile, the top cops of Uttara Kannada and Chikkamagaluru that forms part of the Western Range have been asked to take a call on doing so. “Hebri police station in Udupi was sanitised as part of this process and not because of any positive case emerging from staff there,” he said.

Allaying fears over stations being sealed down over positive case among station staff, Karnataka police chief Praveen Sood said this is a temporary measure and stations do not become non-functional.

“It is just that, for a mandated period police station will function from different premise when the station is being sanitised,” he said.

Noting that policemen are quarantined as precautionary measure, he said additional staff can be drafted from other stations or districts if need for it arises.
