Teakwood makeover gives Kempegowda Council hall a new look ahead of maiden budgets
BENGALURU: Nadaprabhu Kempegowda Pourasabhangana, the venue of monthly Council meetings all these years, has been completely revamped with a new look. Except for the final touches, the hall is ready for use. Complete teakwood executive seats and flooring, acoustics for sound clarity and a mic system for each seat, which allows only one speaker at a time are the major highlights of the new Council hall. As there are no council halls for the five corporations, all the monthly meetings will be held at the Pourasabhangana, with each corporation allocated two days each. It is likely that the first meeting will be held on October 10, when the corporations are expected to present their maiden budgets. Sharing details about the upgradation done in a budget of over Rs 10 crore, Girisha from Dreams Interiors, Mysuru, who led the makeover, said, We were supposed to complete work in six months. But the makeover took more than two years as we had to source teakwood from the Karnataka forest department through auction, and seasoning the wood itself took more than six months. The teakwood seats are of executive type and will have premium cushions facilitating long-hour sitting, and the entire hall has teak flooring that gives a classy look. Earlier, during the council meetings, the hall would echo. Now, it is remodelled with acoustics and soundproofing for sound clarity. Also, the entire mic system is replaced with new ones, which allows only one speaker at a time, Girisha said. The halls previous seating capacity was 270, when Bengaluru had one corporation with 198 wards. The renovator said he was asked to make provision for 225 seats, when the citys wards were capped at 225. Now, there are 324 seats that can accommodate 225 corporators, 28 MLAs, six MLCs, 5 MPs, 25 nominated corporators and 35 officials, Girisha said. The waiting hall adjacent to the council hall is laid with Italian flooring, which gives a rich look, and there are also CCTVs installed, Girisha said.

Rowdy-sheeter dies by suicide in Bengaluru
BENGALURU: A 30-year-old rowdy-sheeter allegedly died by suicide out of fear after his friend filed a police complaint against him. He had reportedly stabbed his friend during a drunken brawl at their house on Friday night. When Byatarayanapura police visited his home on Saturday morning, they found him hanging. The deceased, Divya Tej (30), was a resident of Kasturba Nagar on Mysuru Road. He had five criminal cases against him, including one for attempted murder, and was listed on a rowdy sheet at the Byatarayanapura police station. He was accused of stabbing his friend Rishi (25). According to police, Tej and Rishi were consuming alcohol at Tejs house on Friday night when a trivial argument broke out. Tej allegedly attacked Rishi with a beer bottle and stabbed him in the abdomen with a knife. Rishi later rushed to the hospital and filed a complaint with the Byatarayanapura police. On Saturday morning, when police visited Tejs residence for inquiry, they found him hanging in his room. His parents were reportedly unaware of the incident. Police suspect Tej may have taken the extreme step out of fear of being taken into custody, though the exact reason is yet to be ascertained. A case of unnatural death has been registered. If you are having suicidal thoughts, or are worried about a friend or need emotional support, someone is always there to listen.

Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan lauds NCERT for modules on partition horrors, Op Sindoor
NEW DELHI: Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Monday lauded the National Council for Educational Research and Technology (NCERT) for its recent modules on the horrors of partition as well as Operation Sindoor. Taking part in a function held to mark the 65th Foundation Day of NCERT at its campus in Aurobindo Marg, Pradhan said, NCERTs efforts to highlight Operation Sindoor through a new module is appreciable. A similar effort has been made with the partition horrors. This also deserves much appreciation. Should the country forget about the horrors that happened? If we do not know what has happened in the past and connect it with our present, then we will remain misguided in the future. We will be confused in the future, he said. The module released for classes VI to VIII on August 15 resulted in a war of words between the Congress and the BJP. It generated much controversy as it held Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the Congress and Viceroy Lord Mountbatten responsible for the partition. Pradhan called for the introduction of Artificial Intelligence in the Education system and the need to integrate digitalisation into it. He repeatedly lauded NCERT for the role they have played and continues to play in nation-building through their textbooks. NCERT books are the ones that everyone goes for any reference, the Minister said. He launched several new initiatives, including: Newly constructed entrance complex of the NCERT campus Primers in Hindi, Sanskrit, Ho-Hindi, and Koya, developed by the Central Institute of Indian Languages, Mysuru, and NCERT PM eVidya mobile application for accessing all key digital and broadcast initiatives PM eVidya DTH TV Channel No. 35 for Bal Vatika Virtual Reality labs at four schools, including Ajmer, Bhopal, and Bhubaneswar DIKSHA 2.0 with structured lessons and AI tools like Read Aloud, Closed Captioning, and translation of text into 12 languages Prashast 2.0 , enhancing mobile and web platforms for early identification of children with disabilities Kitab Ek Padhe Anek , to create Universal Design of Learning-based accessible digital and printed textbooks for inclusive classrooms, especially for divyangjan students and children from disadvantaged groups Utkal Jananinkarag Sujogya Santana , a book on 100 great personalities of Odisha who contributed to modern Odishas development and the National Freedom Movement Handbook on vocational education for key functionaries
