The State Government has moved forward in its proposal to establish an industrial township at Kolar Gold Fields (KGF), with officials on Tuesday being asked to conduct a survey of 3,212 acres of unused land belonging to Bharath Gold Mines Ltd. (BGML) at the earliest.
The Department of Survey and Land Records has been tasked with surveying of land and submitting a report at the earliest, sources in the Department of Industries and Commerce said. The decision was taken at a meeting convened by Industries Minister Murugesh Nirani where a deadline of 15 days was given for submission of the survey report, sources said.
Aasheesh Pittie says birdwatching is not very unlike hunting, except that nothing is killed. “You track… you want to follow the bird… see it,” he says about this activity that he has pursued for nearly fifty years. Pittie, the editor of the ornithological journal Indian Birds, author of many classic reference books about birds and most recently, a collection of bird essays titled The Living Air: Pleasures of Birds and Birdwatching, was speaking at an event organised by the Archives of the National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS).
