Kambala should be conducted as per norms: Advocate Rajashekar
Kambala Committee special meeting at Moodbidri
Moodbidri, September 23: “Kambala got the legal validity as all hurdles were cleared. But the PETA has filed petition before the Supreme Court questioning the Ordinance. Now, objection should be filed against the PETA application to avoid any obstacles to Kambala”, advocate Rajashekar who is arguing in favour of Kambala at High Court said.
Speaking at a special meeting organized by the Kambala Committee here on Sunday, he said that instead of making the Kambala Committee as the respondent, the PETA has made the State and Central governments as respondents. In view of this, efforts should be made to prevail upon the state High Court General and Solicitor General of the Central government to argue in favour of the Kambala. Till the application was solved, all Kambala committees should strictly follow the norms laid down by the governments in the Ordinance, he said.
Customs retired assistant commissioner Ermalu Rohit Hegde said that respective committees should give priority to conduct the Kambala as per the proposed norms. They should not use the buffalos which are not fit for Kambala. Instead of eying only for medals, they should give priority to the quality and the Kambala should be conducted as per the tradition, he said.
Moodabidri Kambala Committee President and MLA Umanath Kotian and former MLA Abhay Chandra Jain inaugurated the programme.
Kotian said that he has no experience in Kambala. But he would get the advice from the elders and Abhayachandra Jain to conduct the Kambala this year, he added.
District Kambala Committee honorary advisor Gunapala Kadamba, Abhayachandra Jain and others also spoke on the occasion. Committee former presidents Bhaskar S Kotian, Barkur Shantharam Shetty, Dr Jeevandar Ballal and others gave some suggestions. District Kambala Committee President P.R. Shetty presided over the meeting. It was also decided to convene a meeting again during Navarathri and prepare the time table of the Kambala.

Telangana to name roads after Ratan Tata, Donald Trump
Hyderabad (PTI): The Telangana government on Sunday said it has decided to name the upcoming greenfield radial road at the proposed RRR in honour of the late industrialist Ratan Tata.
In another proposal, a high-profile road along the United States Consulate General in Hyderabad will be named ‘Donald Trump Avenue’, the government said in a release.
The state government will write to the Union Ministry of External Affairs and the US Embassy to inform them of the plans.
Earlier this year, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, while addressing the annual US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) conclave in Delhi, had proposed naming key roads in Hyderabad after leading global corporations.
Additionally, a prominent stretch will be named ‘Google Street’ to recognise the global impact and contribution of Google and Google Maps.
The road along Google’s upcoming campus, set to be the company’s largest outside the US, in Hyderabad’s Financial District, will receive this recognition, the release said.
The proposals are part of the Telangana government’s initiative to position the state as a hub for innovation-driven development.
Microsoft and Wipro are also expected to receive recognition in the city’s topography, with a Wipro Junction and a Microsoft Road, in line with the chief minister’s vision, the release added.
The state government is considering dedicating additional roads in honour of distinguished individuals and corporations.
