Mangaluru, Aug 31: Citizens in Mangaluru can soon send their complaints to Mangaluru City Corporation through WhatsApp. Mayor Kavita Sanil has promised to introduce a dedicated WhatsApp number to receive complaints from the public.

The decision was taken following a particular suggestion from one of the callers, during a monthly phone-in programme. “I will look into it, as it may help people to post complaints along with substantiating photographs,” the Mayor said. 

The WhatsApp line will be in addition to the dialling facility (Ph: 2220306 and 155313) or through Janahita-PGR app of the Directorate of Municipal Administration.

If everything goes as expected, the control room, which was handling grievances on the two landline numbers, will be given the responsibility of monitoring complaints filed through WhatsApp.

According to Sanil, the control room personnel will be given a smart phone that has WhatsApp facility. The grievances, which are posted, will be forwarded to the respective departments for action. The mobile number will be announced in the next few days, she said.

The residents of Nehru Road, few houses just before the playground are letting dirty water to the storm water drain. Please visit the area and instruct them to block them immediately. It is not appropriate during the time of covid, malaria causing growth of mosquitoes. Pl give notice to them and direct all to connect to drainage connection

Attavara is a fast developing suburb with two big malls, commercial establishments, KMC and Mangalore station nearby. There is constant movement of people and traffic. As a Corporator of a growing ward, you have a major role to play.

Babugudde is now a busy residential area. Due to lack of Street display boards visitors to Babugudda (on Attavara - Marnimikatta shortcut road) 575 001 get lost as none of the four crossroads have boards except for the “2nd Cross Lane Income Tax Enclave”.

This has been a long-standing demand of Ward 45 as guests/courier/deliverymen / ambulance / utilities struggle to find the right address. As Corporator of our community we ask that you ensure that a properly visible name board is posted in suitable places near Babugudda bus stop and a clear visible board at the entrance of the 4th crossroad. Your prompt action will be appreciated. A small step towards smart city.

It should be prioritised as it’s one of features that make a city ‘smart’

Sewerage water canal beside chakrapani temple attavara is clogged with plastic bags accumulated under the bridge. Area is stinking. Drainage water not flowing properly. During rainy season rain water flows with mud and dirt to low lying area towards Kmc hospital attavara.
During havy rain this storm water gutter overflows near the road.
No street light in the new pole recently installed.

Can we expect our corporation ecosystem and grievence addressing system will take note of this and do the needful...... ?

Shop Name : GLASS HOUSE ( Mubarak Towers , opp to Kiran stores)

There has been a Crockery and Glassware shop in BiBi Alabi road that has been operating from a small tent. All his paraphernalia and goods lies scattered on the road as well as pavement from one end to the other. This creates obstructions for people like us to walk.

Also the shop constructed in the front side of the building is Illegal.

Apart from causing traffic disruptions, it causes great discomfort to women, men and children.

Dear Madam, I have purchased 1 BHK flat in Green City, Vamadapadav on October, 2013 and paid full amount to builder T3 Urban Developers LTD. As per agreement possession was in December, 2015 but still building is not ready.

There were 5 buildings in Green City and at a time builder started 3 buildings construction work. I have purchased middle of the building and that building 1st floor slab only completed and since long time work stopped. 

Last year builder agreed to give me flat in 1st building but building’s interior work is still pending and since 1 year work totally stopped.

Presently builder is not picking call or not responding for query. It seems that he is cheating with me. Kindly help me to resolve this issue. I will be grateful to you.

Four street lights are not working on Raghavendra Matt Road, Hosabettu, Surathkal since long.

 

The roads are in Shabby condition and hence difficult in the night to Padastrians.

 

Kindly arrange to replace the treet lights on Main road, Raghavendra Matt Road, Hosabettu, near and after the Areca Field.

 the kalbavi road in kottara ashok nagar was provided with ugd pipe line during last year. as usual the centre of road was dug up in march 2018 for this purpose making the road not motorable during the monsoon of 2018.

 the asphalt work is now planned now during nov2018 by mcc. this road is very narrow and not having the foot path or road side drain at all. 

 

both the ugd agency as well as the asphalting agency have put the muck/soil on the sides of the road, making it now impossible to walk when there is traffic. also during monsoons , storm water from the entire stretch for about 500 ft will flow on this road itself which is diverted to my compound/pure water sump due to the faulty work of mcc.

in spite of repeated requests/complaints to the commissioner,corporators, engineers of mcc, publishing of the photos of the same in some news papers,action is yet to be taken.

now at least it is requested to remove all the above dumped muck /soil on either sides of this road which is also preventing the entry of monsoon water th the existing drain near the starting point of sagar court.

Bengaluru, Nov 22: For the second day running, the Karnataka BJP on Friday staged a statewide protest condemning the government’s alleged move to notify land of farmers as Waqf property.

The BJP staged a protest before the offices of Deputy Commissioners at district headquarters.

The BJP leaders are vehemently demanding that the state government cancel a 1974 Gazette notification in this regard.

The agitators are also demanding scrapping of the Waqf Board and the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Minister for Waqf and Housing Zameer Ahmad Khan.

The BJP MLAs, MLCs, MPs gathered in the premises of Freedom Park and staged a protest under the leadership of Leader of Opposition R. Ashoka and slammed the state government.

MLA T.S. Srivatsa led the protest in Mysuru and hundreds of party workers and farmers staged the protest under the leadership of former MP Pratap Simha in Kodagu.

Former MP Sumalatha Ambareesh led the agitation in Mandya.

This was the first time that Sumalatha took part in the party’s programme after the Lok Sabha elections.

State President B.Y. Vijayendra claimed, “The Congress government in Karnataka is issuing notices to farmers claiming the ownership of their lands to the Waqf Board and pushing them on the streets overnight.”

In the first week of December, three teams formed by the BJP will travel across the state and record the grievances of farmers.

“The state government is attempting to snatch away the lands belonging to temples as well,” Vijayendra alleged and added that the teams would comprise all senior leaders of the BJP.

Meanwhile, the police have taken Sri Ram Sena chief Pramod Muthalik into custody while staging a protest march to the office of Zameer Ahmad Khan in Bengaluru.

Muthalik along with Hindutva activists was planning to lay siege to Zameer’s office over the Waqf row.

The police stopped Muthalik and requested him to submit the memorandum by reaching the minister’s office in a vehicle. However, Muthalik refused to go with the police and continued his footmarch. The police took him into custody following arguments.

Udupi: The Tourism Department is planning a major eco-friendly development initiative for Kamini Island, located near the Blue Flag-certified Padubidri End Point beach, aiming to attract more visitors while maintaining environmental sustainability.

Assistant Director Kumar CU emphasized that, given the island’s proximity to the Blue Flag beach, all development efforts will center around eco-friendly practices. “We are looking to enhance the Kamini River and the island’s surroundings by adding a hanging bridge, nature trails, and eco-friendly food courts offering traditional cuisine. Visitors will also be able to reach the island by pedal boats or kayaking,” he said.

The development project is estimated to cost between Rs 3 crore and Rs 4 crore. Meanwhile, the Blue Flag beach, Padubidri, continues to see a steady flow of visitors. Vijay Shetty, manager of the beach, shared that tenders for food courts and water sports have been awarded to private parties. Recently, three new coracles have been introduced, which are proving to be a hit with visitors. Additionally, three more shelters are expected to be ready by November 20.

Shetty mentioned that the beach can now accommodate between 2,500 and 3,000 visitors daily, although footfall remains lower than other district beaches due to user fees and activity restrictions. “Initially, most visitors were from Mangaluru, but now nearly 40% come from other districts, showing a shift in the visitor demographics,” Shetty noted.

To further boost tourism and promote a healthy lifestyle, a Beach Carnival is set to take place on November 23-24, featuring the National Sea Swimming Championship and a sea marathon in collaboration with the Padubidri JCI, which is celebrating its golden jubilee. Cultural events will be held at the main beach, with some sports events taking place at the Blue Flag beach. Emphasis will be placed on making all activities environmentally friendly.
