HUBLI: Activists of Karnataka Rakshana Vedike, Hubli unit, took out a procession and burnt the effigy of Maharashtra Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh at KC Circle, to protest against raking up the Karnataka-Maharashtra border issue unnecessarily by the Maharashtra government, here on Thursday.
The procession that passed through main streets of the city culminated at KC Circle where protestors burnt the effigy of Maharashtra Chief Minister.
Protestors condemned the Maharashtra Government for trying to create problem by raking up sensitive issues like Karnataka-Maharashtra border dispute by bringing pressure on the Prime Minister to settle the issue when it was sub judice.
They alleged that MLAs and elected representatives of Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti were conspiring to see that Belgaum district was merged into Maharashtra.
Though the Mahajan Commission appointed to look into this matter had already clarified its stand that Belgaum was part and parcel of Karantaka, Maharashtra was unnecessarily raking up the issue with an intention of creating law and order problems in the state, they alleged.
Bhimashankar Patil, president of KRV, Ramesh Badnur, Girish Lutimath, and others participated in the agitation.

Government yet to release Rs. 32 crore for infrastructure in the twin cities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Providing land for setting up law university should not be overlooked, say officials
# Meeting with Chief Minister may be convened to discuss water problem in twin cities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HUBLI: Several issues including the allotment of land to Information Technology companies, the setting up of a law university and the development of model roads, tanks, schools and libraries in the twin cities figured in the review meeting concerning the development of the twin cities here on Wednesday.
The meeting was chaired by Minister for Revenue and district in-charge Jagadish Shettar. Primary and Secondary Education Minister Basavaraj Horatti, MP Prahlad Joshi, MLCs Basavaraj Bommai and Viranna Mattikatti, Deputy Commissioner M.S. Srikar, Municipal Commissioner P. Manivannan, Police Commissioner Narayan Nadamani and several other senior officials participated in the meeting.
They said that while top priority should be given to the allotment of land to IT companies, the issue of giving land to the law university should not be overlooked. Earlier, Mr. Manivannan gave a presentation on the progress of various development works in the twin cities and pending issues that needed attention of the State Government. Mr. Manivannan said the corporation was facing a staff shortage. He said the State Government was yet to release Rs. 32 crore for the improvement of infrastructure in the twin cities.
The Ministers said it would be better to fix a meeting with the Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Ministers along with senior officials to sort out issues including the improvement of drinking water supply in Hubli-Dharwad.
Mr. Bommai stressed the need for introducing need-based financing for the development of Hubli-Dharwad on the lines of Bangalore.
Underscoring the need to develop a six-lane bypass road, he said the twin cities required flyovers and said long-term plans should be chalked out for the purpose.
Mr. Horatti suggested that the corporation develop some roads as model roads and beautify the approach roads to the twin cities. He advised the Commissioner to take steps to make the twin cities free of stray pigs.
