Important to provide value-based edu: MLA Devegowda
Mysuru: Chamundeshwari MLA GT Devegowda on Friday emphasised the importance of value-based education while speaking at the taluk-level school reopening ceremony held in Naganahalli village, Mysuru taluk.
"Education should not just produce intelligence but also character," he said, urging schools to integrate yoga, meditation, academics, and extracurriculars into students' daily routines. He called for mutual respect among headmasters and teachers, encouraging collaboration without ego. Devegowda stressed that teachers should instil moral and human values, and parents must accompany children on the first day of school to understand their role in a child's education.
"Parents are gods, and teachers are the first gurus," he noted, urging educators to engage with parents if children are absent or not admitted.
Highlighting past struggles of teachers who cycled to remote schools without basic amenities, he said current govt support—including buses, better pay, and infrastructure—demands renewed commitment from educators.
He advocated teaching arts, drama, and literature to nurture well-rounded individuals and cited chief minister Siddaramaiah's fond memories of his schoolteacher as an example of a teacher's lasting impact.

In the line of duty: Army leads tireless search, rescue operations after landslides in North Sikkim
NEW DELHI: After the deadly landslide in North Sikkim's Chatten on June 1, the army is carrying out non-stop rescue and relief work, battling heavy rain, rough terrain, and growing uncertainty over the fate of those still missing. Lachen village, a popular tourist spot now completely cut off, has been reconnected by foot thanks to the army. Troops have reached 113 stranded tourists, and efforts to evacuate them are in progress, though bad weather remains a major hurdle. On June 3, 33 tourists, including 2 US nationals, were safely airlifted by military helicopters, from the rain battered Chaten region in the north Sikkim. Supplies and national disaster response force (NDRF) personnel were also air-dropped as part of emergency operations. However, an early morning attempt to evacuate the remaining tourists from Lachen was aborted due to poor visibility. An Mi-17 carrying nine NDRF personnel from Pakyong Airport was forced to turn back mid-air. Meanwhile, the army is advancing its search for six people who went missing after the landslide wiped out part of a military camp. A rescuer stationed in the area confirmed that nine personnel lost their lives in the disaster. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like BCP CFD: Tu oportunidad de ingresos extra principales inversores Leer más Undo 'Very, very heavy rains have been experienced in the area from May 30 onwards,' said the army personnel, deployed at the site. 'The rains were so heavy that a huge waterfall had been created due to the landslide on the other side of the mountain. This never existed before. We carried out certain precautionary evacuations," ANI quoted the official. However, nothing was anticipated on this side of the mountain, where 50-70 personnel were residing. Unfortunately, nature got the better of our nine personnel.' He added, 'In the last three days, we have mobilised all our resources and have been able to recover three of the remains. We are constantly searching for the six personnel who remain missing.' The missing include Lieutenant Colonel Pritpal Singh Sandhu, his wife Squadron Leader Aarti Sandhu (Retd), their daughter Amayra Sandhu, Subedar Dharamveer, Naik Sunilal Muchahary, and Sepoy Sainudheen PK. Specialised search teams and engineering equipment have been deployed, but worsening weather, unstable soil, and the region's high-altitude terrain continue to hamper efforts. Authorities say rescue and relief operations will continue round-the-clock until all stranded individuals are brought to safety and the missing accounted for.

Tom And Jerry Gokko: New Anime Series Trailer Releases
An English trailer of 45 seconds for Japan's Tom and Jerry Gokko short anime series is available on the official YouTube channel of the makers. The anime is "coming soon to YouTube," according to the trailer, but no release date is mentioned. On November 11, 2022, the makers debuted with Tom to Jerry Gokko in Japanese. Currently, episodes lasting one minute are released once a month. The short teaser shows that Tom and Jerry Gokko are more than just adorable. Numerous references to vintage Tom and Jerry episodes can also be found during the anime series. Among them are the scenes where Tom chases Jerry through a mouse hole and comes out looking different, and the one where Jerry eats a huge piece of cheese and his entire body changes form. The dynamic between the two also somewhat appears in the anime series. Because Tom and Jerry are frenemies rather than outright enemies in this version, many of their arguments have a lighthearted tone, and one of them usually becomes overly shaken when things get heated. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cos'è ChatGPT di cui tutti parlano?
