Mangalore: “Dhikkara Dhikkara, Yettinahole Yojanege Dhikkara” echoed in front of the DC office on Monday March 3, during a demonstration organized by All College Student Union  in protest against the Netravathi Diversion Project.

Speaking to the media, along with protestors gathered at the venue, the All College Union state President Dinakar Shetty  said, “These projects are not made to uplift the welfare of the people but are made for the gains of the ministers.”
