Karnataka Tourism Vision Group 2014 Report
Karnataka Tourism Vision group 2014 report KARNATAKA TOURISM VISION GROUP (KTVG) Recommendations to the GoK: Jan 2014 Task force KTVG Karnataka Tourism Vision Group 2014 Report 1 FOREWORD Tourism matters. As highlighted in the UN WTO 2013 report, Tourism can account for 9% of GDP (direct, indirect and induced), 1 in 11 jobs and 6% of world exports. We are all aware of amazing tourist experiences globally and the impact of the sector on the economy of countries. Karnataka needs to think big, think like a Nation-State if it is to forge ahead to realise its immense tourism potential. The State is blessed with natural and historical advantage, which coupled with a strong arts and culture ethos, can be leveraged to great advantage. If Karnataka can get its Tourism strategy (and brand promise) right and focus on promotion and excellence in providing a wholesome tourist experience, we believe that it can be among the best destinations in the world. The impact on job creation (we estimate 4.3 million over the next decade) and economic gain (Rs. 85,000 crores) is reason enough for us to pay serious attention to focus on the Tourism sector. The Government of Karnataka had set up a Tourism Vision group in Oct 2013 consisting of eminent citizens and domain specialists to advise the government on the way ahead for the Tourism sector. In this exercise, we had active cooperation from the Hon. Minister of Tourism, Mr. R.V. Deshpande; Tourism Secretary, Mr. Arvind Jadhav; Tourism Director, Ms. Satyavathi and their team. The Vision group of over 50 individuals met jointly in over 7 sessions during Oct-Dec 2013.

Water Resources Department Performance Budget
GOVERNMENT OF KARNATAKA WATER RESOURCES DEPARTMENT (MAJOR, MEDIUM IRRIGATION AND CADA) PERFORMANCE BUDGET 2017-18 JUNE 2017 1 PREFACE The Administrative Reforms Commission set up by the Government of India, inter alia, recommended that Department/Organizations of both the Centre and the States, which are in charge of development programmes, should introduce performance budgeting. In accordance with this suggestion, the Water Resources Department has been publishing performance budget from the year 1977-78. The performance budget seeks to present the purpose and the objective for which funds are requested, the cost of the various programmes and activities and quantitative data, measuring the work performed or services rendered under each programme and activity. In other words, performance budget represents a work plan conceived in terms of functions, programmes, activities and projects with the financial and physical aspects closely interwoven in one document. It may be mentioned here that, in the performance budget compiled now, an attempt has been made to relate the traditional budget to the programmes and activities. Suggestions for improvements are welcome and these would be gratefully received and considered while publishing the performance budget in the coming years. Bangalore Principal Secretary to Government June 2017 Water Resources Department 2 INTRODUCTION Performance budgeting helps in focusing attention on programmes, activities and their costs as also the performance in both physical and financial terms.

Educational Services for Tibetan Students with Disabilities Living in India: a Case Study
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SPECIAL EDUCATION Vol 29, No: 2, 2014 EDUCATIONAL SERVICES FOR TIBETAN STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES LIVING IN INDIA: A CASE STUDY Britany Barnes Gordon S. Gibb Betty Y. Ashbaker Mary Anne Prater Brigham Young University This case study describes services for students with disabilities at Karuna Home in Bylakuppe, Karnataka, India, a residential facility established to address the needs of individuals whose parents are primarily Tibetan immigrants. Interview, observation, and document review data collected over three months were used to describe and explain sociocultural and educational aspects of the school. Findings indicate that service providers embrace Tibetan Buddhist beliefs about individual worth and charitable service that can benefit the children and their caregivers in this life and the next, and that karma and other factors play roles in disability. Areas of concern and needed professional development are described, including effective assessment of academic and behavioral needs, improved planning and instruction using data-based objectives, and reliable monitoring of student progress toward intended learning and behavioral outcomes. Study findings can inform others who endeavor to provide similar services to individuals with disabilities in small or unique populations. Introduction This case study describes services for students with disabilities at Karuna Home in Bylakuppe, Karnataka, India. Karuna Home is a residential rehabilitation center for students with cognitive or physical disabilities who are primarily children of Tibetan refugees. While education is generally below par in Tibet, it is of particularly low quality for students with disabilities (Postiglione, 2009; Postiglione, Jiao, & Xiaoliang, 2012; Zhiyong, 2008). Many Tibetans leave their homeland due to government restrictions, and some seek refuge in Tibetan settlements in India, where some education is successful.
