Minister for Large and Medium Industries and Dharwad district in-charge Jagadish Shettar has said that very soon an appropriate plan will be chalked out to utilise the land owned by MSIL (Mysore Sales International Limited) in Hubballi and make it a centre for MSIL activities in North Karnataka. On Tuesday, Mr. Shettar, along with MSIL Chairman H. Halappa, inspected the two-acre land owned by MSIL at Navanagar on Hubballi-Dharwad Road. Mr. Shettar said that although MSIL owned such a big land attached to the old PB Road (now Hubballi-Dharwad Road), it came to his notice recently. “I took up the issue with Mr. Halappa on the need to utilise the land available and make Hubballi a centre for expanding MSIL activities in North Karnataka,” he said.The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
