Forest dept launches afforestation drive in Mysuru, plans to plant 3.6L saplings
Mysuru: The forest department has launched a major afforestation drive aiming to plant 3.8 lakh saplings across Mysuru for the year 2025-26. Of these, 2.5 lakh have already been distributed to farmers and organisations, while 1.3 lakh are being planted along roads. The early monsoon has accelerated the initiative. The forest department grew more than 3.8 lakh saplings at its nurseries to distribute to farmers and various organisations, and to plant roadside, to improve forest cover. It grew varieties of fruit-bearing and other saplings under the Rising of Seedlings for Public Distribution (RSPD) scheme in 2025-26 to distribute to the public and farmers at its nurseries. Last year, the department grew 3.6 lakh saplings at its nurseries. It grew native species like neem, peepal, and banyan, which are well-suited for the local environment and wildlife, along with fruit-bearing plants such as mango, jamun, jackfruit, teak, sandalwood, red sanders, mahogany, and silver, among several others. The department has already started distributing saplings to the public and farmers at its nurseries like Nagawala, Kukkarahalli, Neelasoge in T Narasipura taluk, Basaveshwara nursery at Hullahalli in Nanjangud taluk, and Beechanahalli in Kabini in HD Kote taluk. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 今すぐ、2025年最高のRPGゲームを制覇しよう!

Under the Aranya Krishi Protsaha scheme, the department distributed 1.1 lakh saplings to 720 farmers from all the taluks last year. Registration to avail benefit open This year, the department opened the registration for farmers, allowing them to buy the saplings at no cost after producing photocopies of their Aadhar card, RTC, other land records, and bank account details to the department. The department also provides an incentive of Rs 35 for each sapling of all surviving plants after the first year of plantation, Rs 40 for the second year, and Rs 50 for each plant by conducting on-the-spot inspection and verification under the scheme. A total of Rs 125 will be provided by the department for all surviving plants under the scheme for farmers. This year, the registration to avail the benefit under the scheme is open until the end of Oct. Farmers can plant the saplings on their agricultural fields, bunds, and other places of their interest in their fields. Aranya Krishi Protsaha scheme "Aranya Krishi Protsaha scheme has helped farmers like me with free access to saplings from the forest department. However, I request the department to deposit the incentive amount to my bank account on time for all surviving plants," said K Marigowda from Kaimaballi village in T Narasipura taluk. Deputy conservator of forest (Mysuru), KN Basavaraju said that the department has already started distributing saplings available at its six nurseries, and receiving good response for saplings both from the public and farmers.

I'm plagued by ‘no-burp syndrome' – I get so bloated I look five months pregnant and live in agony
A WOMAN who's never been able to burp revealed how extreme bloating leaves her looking "five months pregnant". Kaliesha Rae believes she suffers from a rare condition that prevents her from belching. 4 Kaliesha Rae has never been able to burp due to a rare condition Credit: Caters 4 It leaves her bloated and experiencing extreme discomfort Credit: Caters Simply sipping on a fizzy drink will leave her stomach bubbling and bloated. This might sound like no biggie, but Kaleisha revealed her inability to burp often leaves her in agony and suffering from extreme bloating. The mum thought she was the only person with this strange quirk, but she stumbled across a condition online which she believes explains her symptoms - Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction (RCPD), also known as 'no-burp syndrome.' Kaliesha, from St. George, Utah, said: "I get so bloated to the point where I look like I'm five months pregnant. "I don't know how to burp. I've never been able to burp or belch and you may think that that's not a huge problem, but it actually really has been an issue for me." Kaliesha explained that the condition even affected her pregnancies, as the constant build-up of gas caused severe discomfort that she was unable to relieve. After years of unexplained symptoms, including intense bloating, nausea, and even what she describes as "air vomiting", Kaliesha believes she has found the answer to explain them all. RCPD is a rare condition in which people are unable to burp or belch. Most read in Health It occurs when the cricopharyngeus muscle, a sphincter muscle that sits at the top of the oesophagus, is unable to relax and, as a result, does not open to allow air out of the oesophagus. As burping helps the body eject air in the stomach and throat, people who simply can't do so can suffering from uncomfortable symptoms due to a buildup of gas. How much burping is normal and what belching reveals about your health This includes loud gurgling noises from the neck and chest, bloating and discomfort in the neck, chest, and stomach, as well as farting. After researching RCPD, Kaliesha discovered there's a treatment available and wasted no time signing up. The procedure, often referred to as "burp surgery" involves a small injection of Botox into the throat to relax the muscles that are too tight to allow gas to pass. Kaliesha said she'd found comfort in connecting with others online who share the same condition. 4 At times the bloating leaves her looking 'five months pregnant' Credit: Caters 4 The mum is considering getting surgery to allow her to burp Credit: Caters She said: "If you've ever had really bad gas pains, they can be really, really bad, and that is me on a pretty regular basis.

What is retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction? Retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction - also known as no burp syndrome - is a rare condition in which people are unable to burp or belch. It occurs when the cricopharyngeus muscle, a sphincter muscle that sits at the top of the oesophagus, can't relax. As a result, it doesn't open to allow air to exit the oesophagus. Belching is a normal biological process that allows the body to ejects air from the oesophagus and stomach into the throat, pushing it out from the mouth or nose. Because people with RCPD can't burp, they get a buildup of air in their stomach and oesophagus. This causes loud gurgling noises from the neck and chest, bloating and discomfort in the neck, chest, and abdomen, and excessive flatulence. People suffering these symptoms may experience social anxiety as a result. For many, this is a lifelong condition. The main treatment for RCPD is a Botox injection into the cricopharyngeus muscle. Most patients are able to burp and experience significant symptom relief within a week after a single injection. In some cases, however, doctors may recommend an additional Botox injection given several months later to patients whose symptoms continue. After getting a Botox injection into the cricopharyngeus muscle, people may experience one or more of the following side effects: A feeling that food 'hangs' or gets stuck in the throat A feeling of a lump in the throat Acid reflux These side effects typically resolve on their own after a few days or weeks.
