Vietnam, Kerala to promote ties in tourism, trade
Vietnamese Ambassador to India Nguyen Thanh Hai said here on Tuesday that a new flight service linking Kerala with Vietnam would commence soon.
The Ambassador, who held talks with Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan here, said the new service would prove beneficial for both regions in various spheres.
Mr. Vijayan said a direct flight from Kochi to Ho Chi Minh city would help Kerala cement ties with Vietnam. He said a delegation from the southern Vietnam region of Ben Tre had already visited Kerala and established ties with the State.
He hoped the relationship would boost tourism and trade between the two regions and assured the Ambassador of support in the effort.
“We are judges and therefore, cannot act like Mughals of a bygone era ... the writ courts in the guise of doing justice cannot transcend the barriers of law,” the High Court of Karnataka observed while setting aside an order of a single judge, who in 2016 had extended the lease of a public premises allotted to a physically challenged person to 20 years contrary to 12-year period stipulated in the law.
The High Court of Karnataka on Monday declined to interfere, at present, in the investigation against a Bharatiya Janata Party worker, who is among the accused persons facing charges of circulating obscene clips, related to “morphed” images and videos clips related to Prajwal Revanna, former Hassan MP, in public domain through pen drives and other modes.
