He said "I can only guide you and it would not be possible to travel all over the place. I can advise and give suggestions to you to do so. We have put up a strong fight in upcoming Karnataka local body elections which are very important to us. We need to prove that we have not fallen behind.

He said “We have to show what our strength is in the coming elections. Even a small difference could make a difference while allocating a seat. Please do not shake your head about it. We all need to work in unity. Our party should win the next election and save our regional party in this state which is needed at this hour.

Speaking on the occasion former Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy said when his party did not file any candidates who the congress was so worried and feared including the leader of the opposition.

He said "I don't have a soft voice about the BJP. There is no soft attitude towards any party. Those who claimed that the JDS was not a party in the state should make again and again statements.

JDS will contest by-elections in three constituencies - Muski, Sindagi and Basavakalyan. H D Kumaraswamy announced that we will field a candidate from JDS in three areas.

He also explained how he worked in the Congress-JDS coalition government all through the tenure and there was a lot of pressure on him from the Congress leaders for every issue.

He said no one can eliminate the JD-S in the state which has their own strength and fight for all upcoming elections in the state .

He called upon the workers to lose their hope and time will come for everyone and winning and losing are quite normal in the elections, however, do not be disheartened, he added.

Udupi: Deputy Commissioner K. Vidya Kumari has directed officials to expedite land acquisition for designated industrial zones in the district to facilitate new industries. She issued these instructions during a meeting at Rajatadri on Wednesday.

Lands have been identified across various taluks for industrial development. The DC emphasized that KIADB must acquire these lands and ensure essential infrastructure—electricity, roads, and drainage—to attract industries and generate employment.

A total of 77 acres of private land has been acquired and compensated, including 31.2 acres in Kerebettu village, Hebri taluk, and 45.7 acres in Shivapura village. However, approval for 36.5 acres of government land is still pending. She instructed the forest department to assess whether this land falls under an eco-sensitive zone.

For the Belapu Industrial Area, the DC urged officials to accelerate minor land acquisitions for road expansion and commence construction at the earliest. She also mandated rainwater harvesting systems for all units in the Miyaru Industrial Area to tackle water scarcity.

Currently, 22 export-based units operate in the district. The DC encouraged further promotion of exports and an increase in their number.

The meeting was attended by Joint Director of Industries Nagraj V. Naik, KIADB Development Officer Srinivasa Murthy, Small-Scale Industries Association District President Harish Kunder, Deputy Director of the District Industrial Center Seetharam Shetty, District Skill Development Officer Arun B., and others.
