Mangaluru, 27 Sep 2017: Karnataka forests and DK district-in-charge minister B Ramanath Rai advised Deputy Commissioner to discuss the issue of finalizing the jurisdiction of proposed new taluks of Moodbidri and Kadaba in DK district, with local peoples representatives including MLA.

 

Addressing the gathering of district revenue officers at DK district headquarters, here, on Tuesday, September 26, minister Rai said there are confusions among the people on the jurisdiction of new taluks.

He instructed PWD officials to identify state-owned land to build Mini Vidan Souda in the proposed Moodbidri and Kadaba taluks.
