Loans of sugar factories to be rescheduled
The Hindu
HUBLI: NABARD has agreed to reschedule loans of 14 cooperative sugar factories in the State, said R.V. Deshpande, Minister for Cooperation, here on Sunday.
Mr. Deshpande said in a brief chat with presspersons that a credit of Rs. 185 crores was to be made available to these sugar cooperatives by NABARD.
The Government had also proposed that a working capital of Rs. 100 crores be given to sugar cooperatives and it (proposal) was being sent to NCDC.
The Government, he said, had decided to sell or lease out four loss-making cooperative sugar factories at Aland, Brahmavar, Pandavapur and Haveri.
This had been decided as per the recommendations of a Cabinet Subcommittee, Mr. Deshpande said.
Some of the nominees had come from Gulbarga to plead against the proposal as far as the Aland Cooperative Sugar Factory was concerned.
The acceptance of the suggestion would mean the Government would have to invest Rs. 25 crores in the Aland sugar factory. A decision is yet to be taken, Mr. Deshpande said.
As far as the revival of KCC Bank, Dharwad, was concerned, Mr. Deshpande admitted that there had been some delay in making available the promised assistance. The bank was to be revived by March 2006, he added.

Ganeshotsava ends amid fanfare in Hubli
The Hindu
HUBLI: The 11-day Ganeshotsava ended amid fanfare here on Saturday. A speciality of the immersion celebrations was that it was gone through before midnight.
Usually, the immersion used to go on till the early hours of the next day.
Decorated Ganapati idols from different localities were taken out in a procession from Durgadbail via Broadway, Myadar Oni, Dajibanpet, Kittur Channma Circle to the well of Murusavira Mutt as well as the one specially created by the Hubli-Dharwad Municipal Corporation at the Indira Gandhi Glass House.
The occasional drizzle did not dim the enthusiasm of the revellers who accompanied the idols even as gulal powder was thrown, crackers were burst and music was played. S.R. Morey, Minister for Municipal Administration, flagged off the immersion procession at a function arranged under the auspices of the Sarvajanik Ganeshotsava Samiti Mahamandal.
Mr. Morey lauded the communal harmony which was reflected in the celebration and said the spirit deserved to be emulated by others.
Pralhad Joshi, BJP MP, who was the chief guest, expressed happiness over the peaceful celebrations. The Swamiji of Murusavira Mutt, who presided over the function, said there was need for giving a constructive orientation to the celebrations, for which the assistance of the Government was necessary. S.S. Kamadollishettru, President of the Mahamandal, welcomed the gathering.
