It is not right to blame the state government for some officials on exams who do not allow students with Janivara to take CET, said Minister Satish Jarkiholi in Belagavi on Monday.
“The incidents of investigative officials remove or force candidates to remove the sacred thread from two cities. The state government has launched disciplinary steps against officers who were responsible for it. Also such incidents also occurred in private schools or universities.
As a question, the Minister stated that it is not acceptable that BJP MLA Abhay Patil join the Brahmin Association against the incidents of Janivar. Mr. Patil took part in the protest for political reasons. It’s very clear. In his political life, Mr. Patil had several reasons for protest. But no. He did not assume for reasons such as other schools or school rooms in his election district. But today he joined the protest for political reasons, Jarkiholi said.
New office
He said that the work on the construction of a new office of the Commissioner will start by November this year. “Since the day I took the lead, I have been preparing several plans for the comprehensive development of the district and Belagavi city. The new district government office complex is one of them. The work will begin until November and will be completed in three years.
Water sharing
Mr. Jarkiholi favored an agreement on water exchange between Karnataka and Maharashtra. “Every year we still ask Maharashtra to release water from Koyna and other dams and their reactions are usually delayed. However, if we build a system where Karnataka releases water from its tanks to the dry regions in the Maharashtra.
As a question, he stated that the decision on his son and the leader of the congress for youth Rahul Jarkiholi has not yet been accepted by the election cooperative banking elections of the District Central Cooperative. “Before the decision, I will consult my friends and good friends,” he said.
Mr. Jarkiholi said he planned to open a sports school in South Africa. “We bought some land and preparations are being built there a sports school,” he said.
