Efforts on to revive Tulu and Konkani in coastal schools
Mangaluru: Tulu and Konkani, widely spoken in the coastal districts, were introduced as third-language options in select schools. However, over the years, student interest in learning these regional languages has gradually declined. In response, the Konkani and Tulu sahitya academies are trying to revive this interest. The govt introduced Konkani as an optional third language between classes VI and X from the academic year 2007-2008. It was able to attract good number of students from undivided Dakshina Kannada, but currently, there is no school teaching the language through the academy. One of the reasons for the decline in interest in Konkani is the ongoing issue over which script to adopt, Kannada or Devanagari. Karnataka Konkani Sahitya Academy chairman J Stany Alvares said that efforts are on to reintroduce Konkani in schools again, which previously had good takers for the language. Currently, less than five schools teach Konkani in the Devanagari script, and it is not connected to the academy. "We are planning to reintroduce it from the next academic year. Prior to this, the academy is planning to have a 'Shikshana Samavesha' in each education block, to convince schools to take up Konkani as a third language. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Also, the academy is considering initially hand-holding these schools that start teaching Konkani," said Alvares. Tulu was introduced as a third optional subject in the academic year 2010-11. The number of schools teaching the language increased to 45 until 2019, but dropped due to issues in the payment of remuneration. "Teachers teaching Tulu in schools across undivided Dakshina Kannada were paid Rs 30,000 per year as an honorarium. There were no separate funds from the govt, but it was paid from the Karnataka Tulu Sahitya Academy fund. However, the teachers did not get paid from 2019, and it forced schools to stop. The number of schools currently teaching Tulu has reduced to 27," said Tharanath Gatti Kapikad, chairman of the academy. Kapikad said that they are trying to clear dues of teachers. They are further writing letters to school heads and also meeting them in person, urging them to include Tulu. "There is also a proposal to include Tulu teachers as guest teachers in the school. We have spoken to the state government in this regard, and if all goes well, it is likely to happen next academic year," said Kapikad. The academy also gave away cash prizes to those candidates who scored 100 marks in Tulu in the SSLC exam. Additionally, this academic year, they are distributing free notebooks to those learning Tulu.

Doon residents demand urgent tree health survey after three die by tree collapse
Dehradun: At least three people lost their lives in the state capital this pre-monsoon season due to incidents of trees collapsing, despite environmental activists urging authorities for nearly a decade to conduct a comprehensive survey and health assessment of Dehradun's trees. "Last year, we learned that the Chandigarh Municipal Corporation had engaged the Forest Research Institute (FRI) in 2013 to conduct a tree census and health survey within their municipality limits. In June, we met the then municipal commissioner in Dehradun and proposed a similar initiative here," said Sanjeev Srivastava, eco-activist and member of Dehradun-based environmental organisation Citizens for Green Doon. Following appeals from environmentalists, the Dehradun Municipal Corporation (DMC) wrote to FRI in Aug last year, seeking a survey like Chandigarh's. Documents accessed by TOI, reveal that Chandigarh municipality had allocated Rs 44 lakh for their tree health survey. "FRI asked the corporation to provide details of areas requiring the survey so they could prepare a cost estimate. However, there's been no progress in the past year, and the project was never handed over to new officers. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like These £39.90 Sandals Are Selling Out in Porthcawl Today wellnesstodayonline Buy Now Undo The callousness on the part of civic agencies is baffling. They don't act on time, and when unfortunate accidents happen, authorities often use it as an excuse to fell trees indiscriminately. Had a scientific health check been conducted, these incidents might have been prevented. We have FRI's services available right here in the city, yet it's not being utilised," said Srivastava. Environmentalists have renewed calls for a scientific tree health assessment. They also blame the concretisation around tree bases for weakening their stability. Meanwhile, DMC officials said they have written to the Chandigarh corporation to understand the details of their agreement with FRI. "We are also in talks with FRI to conduct this exercise pro bono, and we have a meeting scheduled with them in the first week of July," said municipal commissioner Namami Bansal.

Though the protesters who had initially raised objections did not attend the meeting, several representatives from the affected coastal villages participated in the discussion, it said. The villagers' demands include higher compensation for land to be acquired for the Vadhvan greenfield highway, employment opportunities for locals in the port project, and compensation and rehabilitation measures for fishermen who may lose their livelihood. Live Events Deputy Collector Mahesh Sagar said during the meeting that JNPT ( Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust ) has agreed in principle to prioritise the local residents for employment opportunities in the project, according to the release. The district administration also clarified that a comprehensive compensation policy for fishermen is under preparation, the release said. Officials also emphasised that the government remains sensitive to public sentiment and is committed to an inclusive development process, it added. The development of a Rs 76,200 crore all-weather greenfield deep draft major Port at Vadhvan was approved by the Union Cabinet in 2024. The project will be constructed by Vadhvan Port Project Limited, a special purpose vehicle (SPV) formed by Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) and Maharashtra Maritime Board (MMB), with a shareholding of 74 per cent and 26 per cent, respectively.
