Analyzing the state syllabus with the central syllabus, he said that making effort through bridge course is impossible and a waste effort, he said. It is not possible to measure the development by counting the numbers of Temples, Churches and Masjids, but it is possible to measure it with the number of quality education Institutions, he said.
The award was given away by District Lions governor Jayakar Shetty Indrali. District Education Deputy Director Nagendra Madhyasta released the annual magazine of Alevoor Group “All Round Alevoor”.

| Lest the message of Prof Nanjunda is lost amidst private animosities, let me state what I understood it to be: He rues the fact that people are not willing to spend a lot for quality education, even as they accept that money can but good education. But attitudes are changing. Discerning parents are willing and paying high tuition and other fees to enroll their children into ranked and highly rated private schools. In fact, the schools are found wanting in providing value for money, due to demand-supply gap. Yes, some call it a commercialization of education. They are in the socialist era, where state was expected to pay for education of its citizens. And the state had its priorities elsewhere, and quality suffered, not least because poor wages attracted poor talent into teaching and teachers also did not commit themselves to their profession, in order to make a decent living like everyone else, which one cannot grudge them. | |

| Dear Roal Sabi, You know jealousy has no medicine. It was also present early days of God s creation and serpant out of jealousy I think motivated Eve to eat the forbidden fruit as we are taught, and thereafter all the evils started. Professors , lecturers must be encouraged for their good work but at the same time criticised also to check them going out of Laxmana Rekha. I had a dozen of professors and lecturers including mr M.d. nanjunda , with lots of calibre, wit and enthusiasm and he has proved his inbuilt talents. So honur and appreciate them.God will love those who do it. Honouring of Prof Nanjunda at Alevoor was anews to me, else I would have made it at the function. Yet the public of Alevvoor have done it. Great is the Deed. Prof. nanjunda, Jai ho! | |

| Stanly Belle, why are you upset about professors doing MC Job and other cultural activities? They are doing it during out of office hours and on their available casual leave!! They are free to go abroad for leisure, fun or holiday like you and me!! I believe such activities will broaden their horizon and better equipped for teaching! Please note that talented, intelligent and orators are on demand always and let them meet our demands and dreams of organizing memorable gatherings and programmes. I strongly believe that a versatile and positive personality if happened to be a teacher / professor will be useful to any student. If any person is not good at job, he will not retain the job! Leave it to the employer!! Is it good to see teachers only doing teaching and getting into shell and chappe/non social? And retire being the same without troubling brain and body (kind of pusthakada badane kai) ? I think examples are galore! Being active, innovative and enthusiastic will always add values to life and liked by most!! | |

| There are so many teachers and professors who are always busy with MC, functions and visiting abroad for occasions and involved in other cultural activities. Where they have time to teach our children. Instead of involving such activites let them teach our childrenWhat we can expect from our teachers, good education ... ?? | |
