  • A Review on Development of Minor Ports to Improvethe Economy of Developing Country Geetha Kuntojia* and Subba Raob
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Aquatic Procedia 4 ( 2015 ) 256 – 263 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON WATER RESOURCES, COASTAL AND OCEAN ENGINEERING (ICWRCOE 2015) A Review on Development of Minor Ports to Improvethe Economy of Developing Country Geetha Kuntojia* and Subba Raob a,b Department of applied mechanics and hydraulics, National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal, Dakshina Kannada District, India,Pincode-575026. Abstract India, is the second largest country in Asia, has a coast line about 7500 km and is studded with 13 major ports and close to 200 minor ports. The major ports in India are Calcutta, Haldia, Paradip, Visakhapatnam, Ennore, Chennai, Tuticorin, Cochin, New Mangalore port trust (NMPT), Mormugao, Jawharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNTP), Mumbai, and Kandla. Approximately, 95 per cent of the country’s trade by volume (70 per cent in terms of value) is moved by sea. Major ports handle about 75 per cent of the total cargo and the rest by intermediate and minor ports. Hence, shipping plays an important role in the transport sector of India’s economy. The development of port can be defined as “Technological changes in recent years in transport systems as a whole and maritime transport in particular have made it imperative to reorient the working of the ports in developing countries to meet the challenges posed by these new innovations”. In this paper,as anexample development of Karwar portis discussed. Karnataka has a coastline of 300 km with one major port at New Mangalore and minor ports. Karwar port is located at the northern extremity of the state in Latitude 12º48’ N and Longitude 74º7’ E.

    Science, Technology and Development ISSN : 0950-0707 FACTORS AFFECTING ON COST MANAGEMENT OF PASSENGER ROAD TRANSPORT UNDERTAKINGS IN KARNATAKA Dr. RAGHAVENDRA N.R. Assistant professor, Department of Studies & Research in Commerce, Vijayanagara Sri Krishnadevaraya University, Jnanasagara Campus, Ballari, Karnataka.-583105 ABSTRACT Transportation connects people from one place to another place. India is a very big country which is having a widespread distribution of population in different geographical areas. The cost of transportation is huge due to several factors. The study is conducted from the cost management perspective with special reference to Passenger Road Transport undertakings in Karnataka state. The aim of the paper is to know the major factors which are affecting on the cost of operation of the undertakings. A structured questionnaire is prepared and circulated to 6 passenger road transport undertakings operating in Karnataka state. Purposive sampling method is deployed for the selection of respondents. Questions are prepared on the basis of 3 major criteria’s namely Material cost, labour cost, other cost factors (tax cost, depreciation cost and administration and other cost). Due attention is given to the common factors which are applicable for the passenger road transportation industry. Collected data is tabulated and analysis is done with the help of Friedman’s two-way anova test. The analysis shows that the material cost factor is major cost factor for all the State Road Transport undertakings (RTUs) and private Road Transport undertakings (RTUs). Some labour cost factors are applicable for some undertakings only. Administrative and other cost factors are least cost factors for the undertakings. While making an individual undertaking wise comparison of material cost factors, labour cost factors and other cost factors, a significant difference is found within State RTUs as well as Private RTUs.

  • Initiatives of Urban Sector in Karnataka (Best Practice Catalogue 2014-15)
    BEST PRACTIC 2014-15 CATALOGUE VI Initiatives of Urban Sector in Karnataka (Best Practice Catalogue 2014-15) Published by : City Managers Association, Karnataka (CMAK) In Association with : Directorate of Municipal Administration (DMA) Government of Karnataka 1 BEST PRACTICE 2014-15 CATALOGUE VI PREFACE One of the core functions of CMAK is documentation . Best Practice is the knowledge about what works in specific situations and contexts, without using inordinate resources to achieve the desired results, and which can be used to develop and implement solutions adapted to similar problems in other situations and contexts. Increasing urbanization and the concentration of the population are associated with increasing issues in cities and towns, such as high population density, traffic congestion, pollution, slums, rise in urban poverty, environmental degradation, shortage of housing, civic services and infrastructure etc. Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) which bear the primary responsibility of providing basic civic amenities are experiencing a number of constraints such as poor revenues, inefficient organizational and human resources, lack of supportive environment etc. Hence, ULBs are constantly under the challenge to discharge their responsibilities effectively to improve service levels. This best practice program is giving a boost to their efforts and rewarding their activities. Best practice program is also a step in this direction to collect and document some of the good initiatives implemented by the ULBs in any municipal service sector. The process involves systematically documenting the activity and bringing out a printed version in the form of a Catalogue . The initiatives are subjected to a process of evaluation done by a Panel of experts from various fields to rank them and award the efforts as Best practice award .
