The abrupt shutdown of city life was informally pened only after repeated rebuffs by Veerappan of the Tamil journalist and imposed by a set of forces that had gained increasing visibility in the city for emissary Gopal, and after several reversals in the court, resulted in anything at least two decades. This display of anger was against the kidnapping of the more than a carnival of joy (Fig. 47). leading cultural icon of the Kannadigas, Rajkumar, by the notorious forest The abduction of Rajkumar was not just a criminal act of a forest brigand, brigand Veerappan in the early hours of 30 July 2000. The helpless anger of but was staged as a dramatic encounter between two nationalisms, Kannada a wide range of Rajkumar fan clubs and Kannada associations that spread and Tamil, that had over the past two decades come into violent conflict over across the city and the state was only heightened by the fact that the film star, issues relating to land, jobs, and water in the southern regions of Karnataka who had come to represent pride in the Kannada language itself, was kidnapped and particularly Bangalore city. It was striking then that the Tamils and other by a man who shed his image as a sandalwood and ivory poacher to take up citizens of Bangalore more generally were not exposed to violence that con- the cause of Tamil nationalism. formed to.these established patterns. The restraint was all the more significant Right across the city, the violence took the form of bringing public transport given theT provocations of Rajkumar's captors, who bargained with state to a halt, forcing people to abandon their private vehicles and walk home as authorities in both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu on issues concerning the fate a mark of solidarity with the abducted hero.2 More important, it was a moment of Tamils in Karnataka and of some Tamils in Tamil Nadu itself. In his list of when, by his very absence, the entire city was made aware of Rajkumar's larger ten demands that was handed over at the time of abduction, Veerappan and his new found allies in the forest, the Tamil National Liberation Front (TNLF), 236 The Promise of the Metropolis Language and the Right to the City 237 This mixture of economic and cultural demands blurred the battle lines between the two linguistic groups, and in many ways diffused the tension, producing new loyalties and alliances. Bangalore Tamils were quick to distance themselves from the actions of a forest brigand, refusing to acknowledge that he represented their interests. There was even some bitterness at how readily the state government was prepared to acquiesce to Veerappan's demands: R.S. Maran of the Tamil Sangham said it was an insult that government was heeding Veerappan's demands rather than the petitions of Tamil organizations in Bangalore. Nearly all the issues that were raised in the demands of Karnataka state had left their scars on a city that was deeply divided on the question of language and its implications for a right to the city. Veerappan and his allies chose to address the state on issues that had long slipped out of its grasp, and had become the battleground of groups and associations in Karnataka. Maran's plea was that the state reassert its power and rein in these non-state organizations. For those long involved in the Kannada movement, the predicament of Rajkumar was in fact the predicament of Kannada itself, held hostage to what was perceived as the more robust nationalism of the Tamils. Clearly, the triumphant march of computer languages such as Java and C++ through every neighbourhood of Bangalore, and some other parts of Karnataka, had done nothing to resolve or render irrelevant the crisis within which the Kannada language and the state found itself, and may only have accentuated . it. Indeed, 'When the capitalists give Kannada a sidelong glance [kadegann'tnda noduthiruvaga], Kannada itself becomes capital to some', said the Kannada Development Authority chairman Bargur Ramachandrappa, in his plea for recasting Kannada pride.9 A similar anguish marks the speech of nearly ail these who have been involved in the Kannada movement over the past few FiG. 47 The reigning culiuruihen> of the Kamtadigas; Rafkitmat J ...i.-m dominates the front of the Kapali Theatre at the screening of the film Shabdavedi. decades.

  • Urban Water Supply: Contestations and Sustainability Issues in Greater Bangalore
    Journal of Politics & Governance, Vol. 3, No. 4, October-December 2014 Urban Water Supply: Contestations and Sustainability Issues in Greater Bangalore Srihari Hulikal Muralidhar Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai Abstract The move towards privatization of public utilities such as water sector in India, particularly in the metropolitan areas, has gone hand in hand with the growing gap between demand and supply of water. With fiscal discipline being the key mantra of successive governments, cost recovery as a policy goal is prioritized over access to water and sanitation. This paper is a critical assessment of Greater Bangalore Water and Sanitation Project (GBWASP), which aims to provide piped water to more than twenty lakh residents in Greater Bangalore. The implementation of the Karnataka Groundwater Act, 2011, and the debates around it are also examined in detail. The four main arguments are: huge gap between rhetoric and ground realities when it comes to the implementation of GBWASP and the Groundwater Act; the contestations between the elected representatives and bureaucrats have implications for urban governance; the axes of dispute between the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board and citizens have changed over time; the politics of negotiating access to water also bring questions of sustainability to the fore. Keywords: Borewell, Privatization, Water [This paper was presented at the 2nd National Conference on Politics & Governance, NCPG 2014 held at India International Centre Annexe, New Delhi on 3 August 2014] Introduction The Greater Bangalore Water and Sanitation Project (GBWASP) was launched in 2003 in Bangalore and is implemented by the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB).

However, the pooling of communites as Animist-Forest & Hill tribes in the Census had occurred due to the rather artificial classification of castes based on whether they were not the sub- caste of a main caste, their occupation, place of residence and the fictitious religion called ‘Animists’. It is not a true reflection of the so called tribal characteristics such as exclusion of these communities from the mainstrream habitation or rituals. Thus Lambáni, Hasalaru, Koracha, Maleru (Máleru ಮ಺ಲ ೇರು माले셁‘sic’ Maaleru) etc have been categorized as forest and hill tribes solely due to the fact that they neither belonged to established castes such as Brahmins, Vokkaligas, Holayas etc nor to the occupation groups such as weavers, potters etc. The scheduling of tribes of Mysore state in the year 1950 was done by en-masse inclusion of some of those communities in the ST list rather than by the study of individual communities.

  • “Runoff Modeling in Ghataprabha Sub Basin for Climate Change Scenario”
    “Runoff Modeling in Ghataprabha Sub basin for Climate Change Scenario” By Nagraj S. Patil , Mr. Nataraj, A. N. B. Gowda, Nagendra VISVESVARAYA TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND LAND MANAGEMENT Centre for P.G. Studies VTU Belagavi Motivation….. Climate change can be sum up to measurable difference in the values of atmospheric variables such as precipitation, temperature, humidity, wind, solar radiation, atmospheric pressure and other meterological variable over a long period of time. Thus, it is important to quantify the impacts of climate change to frame mitigation and adaptation measures. Hydrological modeling of water cycle in areas with extreme events and natural hazards (e.g., flooding, droughts) is imperative for sustainable management of soil and water resources. Understanding water resources availability would help stakeholders and policymakers to plan and develop an area. The distributed hydrological model can also be used for climate change impact on surface runoff and water availability in the basin catchments. The main aim of this study is to predict surface runoff in the Ghataprabha sub basin catchment using hydrological model SWAT. Objectives The main aim of the study is to simulate the runoff over a Ghatapraha sub basin. Following are the specific objectives are to be achieved. • Multi-site calibration and validation of SWAT Model for Ghataprabha sub basin for the monthly discharge. • Downscaling of climate variables (precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation and wind speed) for the Ghataptabha sub basin. • To simulate the surface runoff for the Ghataprabha sub basin using downscaled data from 2021- 2100. • Simulate of streamflow at the four discharge gauge (Bagalkot, Gokak falls, Gotur and Daddi) stations.

Introduction: From earlIest times Karnataka made its own impact in the lLil;tory of India. There wert! so many sources to focus on political. social, rel igion, cultw'al relations with other states. Kamataka's contribution to the culture of India is of prime importance. Kamata.ka and Maha rashtra are both neighbouring States. From ancient times these two, KaImada and Marathi language, have had a cultural exchange. This is one of the reasons these two states are attached with each other. "In the North Indian historian view Deccan land means North part of Tungabhadra River. According to Tamil his torian North India means South part of Kaveri River. Because of this for the development of South Indian not mention Kamataka's role by hi storian".
