BCC staff go on mass leave supporting statewide protest of corporation employees
1 2 Pics: The employees of the BCC Belagavi and HDMC Hubballi protested at the premises of the office on Tuesday Belagavi: More than 600 employees of the Belagavi unit of the Karnataka State City Corporation Employees' Association Council protested at the premises of Belagavi City Corporation (BCC) on Tuesday, urging that various demands be met. The corporation officers and staff, who protested by curtailing the office service at the BCC office premises, sat on the steps of the office entrance, urging that their demands be met. The employees demanded that the 7th Pay Commission benefits be extended to the corporation employees as well. They insisted that funds should be released properly from the finance department and that the cadre and recruitment rules of the Karnataka State City Corporations should be amended, with a notification issued. The KGID and GPF benefits implemented for state govt employees should be applicable to the corporation employees as well. Health services should be provided to the corporation employees under the Jyoti Arogya and Sanjeevini schemes. A sports meet should be organised for the corporation employees, just as a sports meet is organised for the state govt employees every year. Speaking on the occasion, Suresh Dyamannavar, the general secretary of the organisation's BCC unit, said that the govt is discriminating by not providing the facilities given to the state govt employees to the local body employees. All the facilities available to the govt employees should be available to the employees of the local bodies. The govt has already implemented the Sanjeevini health service for the state govt employees. However, this health service should be implemented mainly for the civic workers who clean the city. He appealed that the govt should take appropriate action in this regard. Pundalik Malagi, a BCC employee, said that the state govt facilities are not reaching the 10 corporations and more than 200 urban local bodies in the state. No order issued by the govt is being implemented properly within the corporation. The employees of local bodies, who are working hard for the development and prosperity of the city, are being deprived of the facilities they deserve. Moreover, they expressed dissatisfaction that they have reached a situation where they have to take to the streets and fight if any govt order is to be implemented in local bodies. BCC employees, including Hanumant Kaladagi, Anand P, Shaila Naikar, Suvarna H, Ujwala Hangerkar, Rajshree Jadhav, Meenakshi Togari, Shobha Mohite, and Vijayalaxmi Patil participated. In Hubballi, HDMC workers stage a walk-out Hubballi-Dharwad Municipal Corporation (HDMC) employees staged a protest by walking out from duty on Tuesday at HDMC, Hubballi, demanding the fulfilment of various demands.

Rain-hit green gram crop shows signs of nutrient stress in Belagavi
Belagavi: Due to heavy rains and increased moisture, the green gram crop is facing nutrient deficiency in Belagavi district. To date, green gram has been sown in more than 32,000 hectares out of the total 41,000 hectares of land meant for the crop in the district. Farmers are concerned as the leaves of the crop are turning yellow in many places. Agriculture department sources said early sowing of the crop this year is one of the reasons for this effect. According to agricultural officials, this time, the sown crop is suffering from increased moisture. Farmers are worried about leaves turning yellow and preserving the crop. Green gram was sown in a total of 41,066 hectares in the entire district. The highest area of green gram sowing in the district is in Ramdurg taluk, with the crop being grown in 19,610 hectares. There are 18,181 hectares of green gram crop area in Savadatti, 1,936 hectares in Yaragatti, and 260 hectares in Hukkeri taluk. The green gram crop has already sprouted in more than half the area, while heavy rainfall has hindered sowing in the rest. Solution for crop problem Agriculture department officials have suggested solutions to overcome the problem of leaf yellowing. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Cuối cùng, chơi miễn phí game chiến thuật hay nhất 2025!

If the crop is less than 20 days old, 2 grams of 19:19:19 fertiliser and 2 grams of 13:0:45 fertiliser should be mixed in 1 litre of water and sprayed on the leaves. In addition, 1 gram of Thiamethoxam insecticide and 1 gram of Carbon Dyzim or (1 gram Carbendazim + Mancozeb) compound fungicide should be sprayed separately to manage the sap-sucking grey disease.

Sidagouda Modagi, the president of Bharateeya Krishik Samaj (BKS), said that green gram is a sensitive crop. Even slight changes in the climate can affect the growth of the crop. The steps recommended by the officials can be followed, but the crop protection methods that farmers have been following through years of experience are the most effective. If there is more sunshine, the moisture-induced diseases will be reduced. HD Kolekar, joint director of the agriculture department, said the department is ready to help farmers in all situations. Officials are visiting fields and advising farmers on plant protection. Under Sanjeevini scheme, farmers can also avail the services of the agriculture department. —— Box here
