Mangaluru: New Deputy Commissioner of Dakshina Kannada District Sindhu Roopesh on Wednesday visited the Pachanady dumping yard and took stock of the conditions at Mandara and Pachanady residential areas where the dump has slumped in making the lives of residents miserable for more than a month now.
Sindhu first reached Pachanady and then visited Mandara village. She then also visited the interim housing society provided to the victims at Kulashekar Housing Board and met the families who have lost their homes due to the garbage slump.
Speaking about the issue Sindhu urged the officials to work in both directions, one of clearing the slumped garbage from the area and the other being rehabilitating the victim families. He also asked the officials to prepare a detailed report which should be presented before the state government.
She was accompanied by Mangalore Municipal Corporation Commissioner Mohammed Nazeer, Joint Commissioner Gayatri Nayak and other officials and activists during her visit.

Ranchi(PTI): The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) has emerged as a surprise element in the Jharkhand assembly elections with its candidates leading in five of the six seats where the party is contesting, according to trends available on the Election Commission's website on Saturday.
RJD candidates in five assembly seats were leading over sitting BJP legislators.
In 2019, RJD had secured only the Chatra seat where its nominee Satyanand Bhokta won.
In Deoghar, RJD’s Suresh Paswan was leading by 19,581 votes over his nearest rival and BJP's sitting MLA Narayan Das after the third round of counting.
RJD’s Sanjay Prasad Yadav was ahead by 19,867 votes in Godda over BJP MLA Amit Kumar Mandal after the sixth round of counting.
In Koderma, RJD nominee Subhash Prasad Yadav, who was out on bail, was leading by a margin of 3,471 votes over BJP’s sitting legislator Neera Yadav.
Subhas Prasad Yadav, considered to be one of the close aides of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad, was recently granted bail by the Supreme Court in a money laundering case.
Party’s Naresh Prasad Singh was leading by 5,159 votes after the fourth round of counting over BJP’s Bishrampur MLA Ramchandra Chandravanshi.
RJD's Sanjay Kumar Singh Yadav was also leading from Hussainabad by 8,213 votes after the fourth round of counting over BJP MLA Kamlesh Kumar Singh.
Party’s candidate Rashmi Prakash, however, was trailing from Chatra by 3,776 votes.
Bhokta did not contest the elections this time, and his daughter-in-law Prakash was given a ticket.
