Pejavara Shree lacks knowledge: Shobha Karanadlaje
‘Government’s performance is not as expected’ Swamiji’s statement
Mangaluru: Pajavara Shree is a seer. How much he has learned about the central government’s achievements through media and how much information he has obtained from activists? Therefore, we will try to provide the information regarding central government’s developmental works to Swamiji through seniors, said MP Shobha Karandlaje.
She told this to media persons while addressing a press conference following the Pejavara Shree’s statement in which he had said that the central government’s performance is not as expected.
“I do not know on what basis the Pejawara Shree has given this statement. Ganga cleaning is a massive project. It is not easy to clean the garbage from Agra to various parts of the country. However, those who have seen the Ganges four years ago can come to know how is it now,” she said.
“The central government has passed a bill to bring back black money from foreign countries. Black money needs to be brought back by adjusting with the rules of foreign countries. Measures are being taken up in that regard,” the BJP MP added.

Bill to set up single higher education regulator likely to be tabled in Parliament next week
New Delhi (PTI): A Bill which seeks to set up a single regulator for institutions of higher education is required to facilitate universities and other higher educational institutes become independent and self-governing, officials said.
The Bill is likely to be introduced in Parliament next week after it got the Union Cabinet's nod on Friday.
The proposed legislation, which was earlier christened the Higher Education Commission of India (HECI) Bill, has now been named Viksit Bharat Shiksha Adhikshan Bill.
A single higher education regulator, which was proposed in the new National Education Policy (NEP), looks to replace the University Grants Commission (UGC), the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), and the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE).
"The Bill proposes to set up a Higher Education Commission of India to facilitate universities and other higher educational institutes become independent and self-governing institutions and to promote excellence through a robust and transparent system of accreditation and autonomy. It is likely to be introduced (in Parliament) in the coming week," an official said.
While the UGC presently oversees non-technical higher education in the country, the AICTE oversees technical education, while the NCTE is the regulatory body for teachers' education.
The Commission is proposed to be set up as a single higher education regulator, but medical and law colleges will not be brought under its ambit.
It is proposed to have three major roles -- regulation, accreditation and setting professional standards, officials said.
Funding, which is seen as the fourth vertical, is not proposed to be under the regulator so far. The autonomy for funding is proposed to be with the administrative ministry, they said.
