Industrial activity in Karnataka, which had gathered momentum, is getting affected again
Industrial activity in the State, which had picked up after the restrictions imposed during the lockdown last year were eased, seems to be getting affected again with the raging pandemic. While cluster outbreaks have been reported in industrial areas in the past fortnight, several manufacturing plants in the auto sector have already declared holiday to break the chain of infection.

In a bid to protect government land from land sharks, the Revenue Department has decided to fence the government land that has been freed from encroachers.
Announcing this in the Legislative Assembly on Tuesday, Revenue Minister R. Ashok said Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa had assured a grant of ₹100 crore for the Revenue Department to undertake fencing work. Mr. Ashok said this would help prevent freed land from being encroached again. He also announced that the government would try to auction such parcels recovered from land sharks.
