    11.13 KARNATAKA 11.13.1 Introduction Karnataka, the seventh largest State of the country, with a geographical area of 1,91,791 sq km accounts for 5.83% of the geographical area of the country. The State is located in the south western region of India and lies between 11°30' N to 18°30' N latitudes and 74°00' E to 78°30' E longitudes and is bordered by Maharashtra and Goa in the North, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh in the east, Kerala & Tamil Nadu on the South and the Arabian Sea on the West.

    1 Revue de presse Semaines 41-42/201 La Tribune 11/10/2018 Rapprocher, internationaliser, susciter, développer et consolider. Tels sont les principaux objectifs définis par Bordeaux Technowest, co-organisateur de la 5ème édition de l’UAV Show qui se tient depuis hier à Mérignac. La filière drone se développe et se structure mais reste fragile. 80 % des sociétés françaises ont un chiffre d’affaires de moins de 100.000 euros. D’où un nombre croissant de rapprochements entre sociétés. Mais les enjeux à relever sont, avant tout, technologiques. "Si nous sommes présents aujourd'hui sur le salon UAV Show, c'est pour nous plonger dans l'écosystème", déclare Anthony Victor Mehl, directeur commercial et marketing d'Altametris. La filiale de SNCF Réseau dédiée aux drones fait partie des 75 exposants présents sur le salon organisé à Mérignac, en Gironde, depuis hier. "Un chiffre très correct d'autant plus que les plus gros acteurs sont présents. La filière du drone civil reste une petite filière. Elle crée de l'emploi mais elle ne va pas créer 10.000 emplois demain en Nouvelle-Aquitaine", reconnait François Baffou, directeur général de Bordeaux Technowest et trésorier de la fédération professionnelle du drone civil. "De même, le business des drones en France représente 150 M€. C'est ce que fait Orange en 4 jours ! 80 % des sociétés françaises ont un chiffre d'affaires de moins de 100.000 euros." En revanche, la filière se structure et se consolide. "La France a connu une phase de création d'entreprises exponentielle au cours de ces dernières années mais elle ne se développe plus de manière anarchique.

Tain temple and deity is Lord Shiva, who is also known as Gokarna, India 2 Mahabhaleshwara. This temple houses what is believed to be original image of Lord Shiva's lingam. There are many other temples all over this small town. Ankola and Kumta on Highway 17 are the main towns near Gokarna. Gokarna is historically known as one of the seven important Hindu pilgrimage centers and is located on what was once unspoiled beach near the estuary of river Aghanashini with its palm trees, other colorful tropical fruit and flower trees. Of late due to the numbers of tourists the character of this town has changed. This town is no longer just a center of pilgrimage though massive numbers of devotees still visit the town for the purposes of offering prayers and worship to Lord Shiva. Due to its laid back unspoiled and rustic nature, many younger western tourists started visiting Gokarna about a decade ago.

Moreover, following the recent trend of UPSC, almost all the questions are issue-based rather than news- based. Therefore, the right approach to preparation is to prepare issues, rather than just reading news. Taking this into account, our website www.iasbaba.com will cover current affairs focusing more on ‘issues’ on a daily basis. This will help you pick up relevant news items of the day from various national dailies such as The Hindu, Indian Express, Business Standard, LiveMint, Business Line and other important Online sources. Over time, some of these news items will become important issues. UPSC has the knack of picking such issues and asking general opinion based questions. Answering such questions will require general awareness and an overall understanding of the issue. Therefore, we intend to create the right understanding among aspirants – ‘How to cover these issues? This is the 68th edition of IASbaba’s Monthly Magazine. This edition covers all important issues that were in news in the month of JANUARY 2021 which can be accessed from https://iasbaba.com/current-affairs-for-ias-upsc-exams/ VALUE ADDITIONS FROM IASBABA Must Read and Connecting the dots.
