Big crater on Kaup Road causes worry to the people

A big crater on the road at the entrance gate to Kaup with full of muddy water has been causing problems to the pedestrians as well as drivers of small vehicles. The depth of the crater cannot be gauged as it is filled with water. There is fear that if school-going children slip while walking by the side of the crater, they might get drowned. There is also apprehension that if the crater is not filled, gradually it may become home for the mosquitoes causing health danger to the neighbouring people. In spite of the panchayat office and primary health centre being in the vicinity, it is surprising that none has taken seriously the consequences of this crater which looks like a small pond on the road.

 
People’s appreciation is valuable for social service

 

The outgoing president of the Rotary Club of Kaup, Raghu Poojary said that the associations and organisations which work in the field of social service should not aim at getting awards and honours, but should be satisfied with the appreciation of the people about their good work. Raghu Poojary was speaking at the function of the installation of new office bearers of the Rotary Club of Kaup in the Shri Narayana Guru Hall.

Prof. Balakrishna Shetty of Kateel Shri Durgaparameshwari Junior College who presided over the function of installing new office bearers said that the Rotary Club of Kaup has been doing good work in rural areas and has been appreciated for its social service. Deputy Governor of Rotary, Ramesh Bhandary released ‘Kirana’ newsletter. Anantha Padiyar was installed as the new president of the Rotary Club of Kaup. During this occasion, the Deputy Governor of Rotary, Satish Rao was felicitated.
