To address North Karnataka’s underdevelopment, the govt must focus on infrastructure to attract private investment. A second Bengaluru airport near Tumkur-Shira could spark industrial growth toward North Karnataka. The ITPL story is proof of this. I remember visiting ITPL soon after it was inaugurated—there was nothing there back then.... show more

Sir which North Karnataka are you talking about? Why will Hubballi benefit if Tumkur gets an international airport?

Range ETFs1 year ago

$COAL provides an opportunity to invest in essential companies powering global infrastructure. From thermal coal to metallurgical applications, stay ahead in the evolving energy sector with strategic exposure to coal producers worldwide.

SouthEast Bengaluru Post1 year ago

Sir, 2nd airport at Tumkur will not develop North KA. We need industries and international airports at Hubli, and northern KA tier 2 cities.

Rakshith Reddy1 year ago

Yes, u r right sir...Hubli is just 2 Kms from Pavithra thatte idly hotel in Tumkur. Airport in Tumkur will automatically develop Hubli as it is a walkable distance.

Next time this guy should not be elected to from HD, let me get elected from Tumkur-Shira, this is height of shamelessness, something which may take 10yrs to realise and still pushing for it No wonder with this kind of vision how can we expect HD to prosper

Say no to the second international airport near Bengaluru . Develop an international airport in North Karnataka

Old_Saffron1 year ago

What?? Sira is 100kms from Bengaluru. Which world you are living in 😂😂😂 Instead, build an airport near Belavadi Dharwad road…. Easily Belagavi, Dharwad, Saundatti Yellamma, Gadag & Bagalkote districts will see development. And i thought Arvind Bellad IS an intelligent MLA

In the Karnataka Assembly, I spoke on the persistent neglect of North Karnataka, a region that has been ignored despite 75 years of Karnataka’s formation. Our state was born from the struggles of our people, fighting against the British and the then Congress government in the Centre, with Dharwad as the hub of the unification movement. We united with the hope of development, yet today, North Karnataka is treated like it isn’t part of Karnataka. The Nanjundappa Committee report remains a testament to this inequality. In agriculture, education, healthcare, tourism, and more, the focus has been on South Karnataka, leaving North Karnataka far behind. District-wise income data shows that the best-performing districts are all in the south, while the worst-performing ones are in the north. This disparity is driven by the concentration of private investment and industries like IT, BT, and automobile sectors in Bengaluru and its surroundings, as well as the presence of PSUs like HAL and BHEL in the south. Even in government representation, the inequality is stark—only 12% of gazetted officers and 8% of non-gazetted officers hail from North Karnataka. To address this, the government must take proactive steps: 1️⃣ Develop infrastructure to attract private investment in North Karnataka. 2️⃣ Provide higher incentives for industries to move northward compared to South Karnataka. 3️⃣ Plan the second Bengaluru airport near Tumkur-Shira to facilitate industrial growth in the region Bengaluru is already saturated, forcing people from North Karnataka to migrate for work. Instead, we must create opportunities in their own region for holistic growth. It’s time for the government to correct this imbalance and ensure equitable development for all regions of Karnataka. #KalyanaKarnataka #KarnatakaAssembly #NorthKarnatakaNeglect #BalancedDevelopment

North Karnataka can fire Karnataka’s next phase of growth. If Karnataka has to become a $1 trillion economy, North and Central Karnataka cannot be left behind. Today, at the flag-off of the new direct Mumbai-Bengaluru train, I requested Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw ji for a High-Speed Rail / Bullet Train corridor between Mumbai and Bengaluru via Belagavi, Hubballi-Dharwad and Davangere. Rapid connectivity to North Karnataka will be a game-changer for jobs, industry, investment and opportunity. We will pursue this at every level with full commitment. North Karnataka deserves its rightful share in Karnataka’s growth story.

59 most backward taluks in Karnataka — all 59 are in North Karnataka. 39 in Kalyana Karnataka. 20 in Kittur Karnataka. This is not a coincidence. This is decades of structural neglect. The Kittur Karnataka Development Board, announced during the tenure of the previous BJP government led by Basavaraj Bommai, must be operationalised immediately and backed with serious, ring-fenced funding — not token allocations. But let’s be honest: money alone will not change outcomes. North Karnataka’s transformation hinges on 3 non-negotiable pillars: • Irrigation — to unlock agricultural productivity and resilience • Institutions — to build human capital and administrative depth • Industry — to create jobs and retain talent within the region Without a coordinated push on all three, we will keep repeating the same statistics year after year. The region does not need announcements. It needs execution. Now. Basavaraj S Bommai

NEW: North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un to open a beach resort this summer to boost tourism. The resort is along a 2.5 mile stretch of beach and can host 20,000 visitors. It was completed six years after the target date. The resort is on the east coast of North Korea and features hotels, restaurants, shopping malls along with a water park. Wonsan Kalma is near where Kim grew up and is where the North Korean elite have their private villas. The resort will likely be opened to North Koreans initially and eventually to Chinese and Russian tourists. It’s unclear if North Korea will ever open it to the rest of the world.

After the resounding success of BGBS 2025, I was delighted to participate in the North Bengal Business Meet 2025 today. The event brought together business leaders, industry experts, local entrepreneurs, and representatives from small and medium enterprises. As the gateway to the North East, North Bengal holds immense strategic significance in the realm of trade and commerce. Together, we explored meaningful avenues to fully harness its untapped potential. It was a privilege to inaugurate four industrial parks in Dabgram and Ambari Falakata in Jalpaiguri, and Ethelbari and Jaigaon in Alipurduar. Spanning a total of 123.28 acres and developed at a project cost of ₹80 crore, these parks are poised to generate 4,230 new employment opportunities. With the completion of the Dankuni-Cooch Behar Industrial Corridor, North Bengal will truly emerge as a dynamic hub of business and industry. We also inaugurated the Techno India Group World School, further strengthening the region’s educational infrastructure. I was pleased to dedicate the new Siliguri Data Centre to the people, a state-of-the-art facility equipped with AI/ML infrastructure and cloud-ready virtualised application and database hosting. I am also happy to share that the Siliguri International Convention Centre will soon be established on 10 acres of land in Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode, creating a world-class venue for hosting business summits, exhibitions, and global events. In addition, I had the honour of inaugurating the skywalk at the Jalpesh Shiv Mandir, along with the newly renovated temple complex, developed at a cost of ₹5 crore. I’m also happy to announce that six new Volvo buses will now operate from North Bengal to Digha’s Jagannath Temple, offering devotees a more comfortable and accessible travel experience. My commitment to the holistic development of North Bengal remains steadfast. We shall continue working towards inclusive growth, sustainable infrastructure, and economic empowerment for all.

$Lack of Crowd Control at KSRTC Bus Stand Leads to Horrific Student Injury in Tumkur An unfortunate incident occurred at the Tumkur Bus Stand, where a 17-year-old student named Harshita sustained a serious injury while attempting to board a bus. Harshita, who is pursuing her paramedical studies at Siddaramaiah Hospital in Tumkur, was caught in a chaotic situation caused by a sudden surge in the number of passengers. According to reports, the bus was scheduled to travel from Tumkur to Madhugiri. As passengers rushed to board, a stampede-like situation developed due to overcrowding and lack of proper crowd management. In the confusion, Harshita lost her balance and fell near the bus. Tragically, one of the bus tires ran over her leg, resulting in a severe fracture. Emergency services were immediately alerted, and she was promptly transported by Sadu Ambulance to the district hospital in Tumkur. She is currently undergoing treatment for her injuries. Medical staff have confirmed that her leg was broken in the accident, and she is receiving the necessary care. This incident highlights the urgent need for better safety measures, crowd control, and management at busy bus stands to prevent such accidents in the future. #bangalore #bengaluru #tumkur Ramalinga Reddy KSRTC SP Tumakuru ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

Focus on Sports in the North-Eastern Region has witnessed a remarkable transformation in the last nine years under the leadership of Hon. PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji. With the shift from 'Look East Policy' to 'Act East Policy,' our Government has given special emphasis and impetus to sports infrastructure in the region. From setting up of the 1st National Sports University in Manipur to the establishment of 2 Khelo India Centres (KICs) in each district in the region shows our commitment to strengthen the sports ecosystem across all levels and bring the athletes from the North-East to the forefront. My reply in Rajya Sabha on Development of Sports Infrastructure in NE Region.
