January 29, 2016

Mangaluru, Jan 29: Stating that development works being carried out in large scale in Mangaluru North constituency after he became its MLA, Congress leader BA Mohiuddin Bava expressed confidence that the candidates backed by his party would sweep looming Zilla Panchayat and Taluk Panchayat polls in his constituency.

“Congress candidates will win the elections in all three ZP seats and at least eight of 10 TP seats in Mangaluru North,” Mr Bava told media persons here.

Mr Bava said that he had given a thrust to the development of roads in the last two years. The roads that had remained neglected in the Ganjimutt, Edapadavu, Ullaibettu and Neermarga areas have been developed, he added.

“A fisheries jetty will come up at Kulai at an estimated cost of Rs 197 crore. Thirty percent of the total amount will be shared by the NMPT, 40 per cent by the Department of Agriculture and the remaining 30 per cent by the Department of Shipping,” said the legislator.

The MLA said that a crematorium which remained locked for the last 17 years has been provided modern facilities and will be inaugurated shortly.

“I have asked the transport minister to extend the services of a KSRTC bus – sanctioned under Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM) – to Ulaibettu from Vamanjoor. A report on the pollution in his constituency will be submitted by the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board within a month,” said Bava.

Sir,
Holy Cross Road near Kelarai Circle remains a dirt track for the last 40 years +. There are more than 25 families residing over there. They pay property tax. Panchayat has provided with rain water drain, water, electric and telephone connections. But no proper road.
Please help.
