Hubballi: Legislative council chairman, Basavaraj Horatti, stated that 99% of the reccommendations of Vaidyanath report on teacher issues was implemented, and that steps were being taken to implement the reccomendations of the report in its entirety. He was speaking after being felicitated by the Dharwad district unit of the State Physical Education Teachers' Association on Sunday. Horatti said, "I have written a letter to the govt strongly condemning the unscientific order issued by the govt to identify education and painting teachers as additional teachers, and transfer them to schools with more than 240 children. It was stopped for now, and everyone will suffer if someone makes a mistake. This was also brought to the attention of the govt." Horatti continued, "I was an elected representative from the Teachers' constituency for the last 45 years and worked for them. I solved many problems, but some more problems need to be solved. The main demand of the teachers is that the amendment to the Staff and Recruitment (C&R) Rules, 2017, and promotion should be given on the basis of seniority. Legal efforts are under way to find a solution," he added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo "The officials mislead the elected representatives. If they have no knowledge of administration and law, they do whatever they want. They were about to identify special teachers as additional and transfer them. The transfer was stopped for now because I wrote a letter to the govt questioning on what basis this decision was taken, and whether it is allowed in the law. I also warned the officials of the education department," he said. Former MLC Arun Shapur was present.

Academic education alone is not sufficient for true success, says Horatti
Chairman of the Legislative Council Basavaraj Horatti has said that academic education alone is not sufficient for true success in life. Inaugurating the ISKCON Heritage Fest 2025 on the ISKCON Temple premises at Rayapur in Hubballi on Monday, Mr. Horatti said that an individual's Samskara, values and behavioral traits are of great importance in life. Emphasising the need for holistic development of students, he said that they should be encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities. He called upon students to strive to transform any inherited negative traits into positive character through sincere efforts. 'Life is like a lamp and discipline is the oil that keeps it burning. Without discipline, the lamp of life cannot shine. It is, therefore, essential that children cultivate discipline during their school years,' he said. Managing director of Swarnaa Group V.S.V. Prasad said that like carbon which transforms into diamond, children too will shine brilliantly when their talents are identified, nurtured and refined. He said that the Heritage Fest provides a wonderful platform for children to showcase their hidden talent. And, parents and teachers should encourage them by providing opportunities to them to hone their skills, he said. Councillor Rajanna M. Koravi appreciated the selfless social service activities undertaken by ISKCON and commended the organization's dedication towards value-based education and cultural upliftment. Hubballi-Dharwad ISKCON president Rajiv Lochan Dasa and others were present. On the inaugural day of the cultural festival, hundreds of children from various classes participated in colouring, painting, essay writing and vocal music competitions.

Centre has given more funds for Sanskrit, Urdu, Hindi, says Bharat Ekta Andolan
Bharat Ekta Andolan (BEA) has complained that the Union government is deliberately neglecting Kannada. Andolan president Mahadev Horatti has alleged that the Union government has cut research and other grants for Kannada in the last decade, while allocating disproportionately high levels of funds for Sanskrit, Urdu and Hindi. The Union government has allocated ₹2,532.59 crore over the past 10 years for the development and promotion of Sanskrit and research, though the number of people learning and speaking Sanskrit is very few. Urdu, spoken by 4.9 crore people, has received ₹837.94 crore and Hindi has been granted ₹426.99 crore. Neither Urdu nor Hindi is classified as a classical language. In comparison, Kannada has received only ₹12.8 crore, he said. Mr. Horatti said that the Union government is following a policy of discrimination. Other classical languages like Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Odia have also been treated unfairly. He urged the Congress and other parties to fight this injustice.

Teach children true history to instil pride: Basavaraj Horatti
Dharwad: Chairman of Karnataka legislative council Basavaraj Horatti, emphasised the need to teach children the true history of our land to enable them to be proud of it. Speaking after releasing the book 'Naragunda Babasahebara Gallu Nantarada Atankada Baduku' authored by journalist Manoj Patil at the Karnataka Vidyavardhaka Sangha auditorium on Sunday, Horatti said, "We are neglecting our history. Those who do not know history cannot make history. We must teach our glorious past to our children; otherwise, future generations will remain unaware of it." He added that merely making children engineers and doctors is not enough—they must be imparted with cultural values and historical awareness. Horatti praised journalist and writer Manoj Patil for authoring an excellent book, stating that Patil had travelled across the country, conducted extensive research, met with family members of Babasaheb, and compiled the book with great effort.
