Bio-Diesel in Nutshell
Bio-Diesel means a clean burning fuel procured from natural vegetable oils and fats. It can be blended with petrol or diesel in any proportion or can be used independently to run the engines. Research in Bio Fuels is going on in full pledge at University of Agriculture Sciences Bangalore and Hassan in Karnataka. These Universities are encouraging farmers to grow trees and plants that produce oil seeds that can be utilized effectively to produce Bio-Fuels. Interestingly Thai Airlines is the first airlines to run flights on Bio-Fuels in Asia.Research in Bio Fuel@ Karnataka has taken lot of impetus, with many farmers joining hands with Govt. Universities in procuring raw materials for the fuel generation. The main advantage for farmers is after extracting the Bio-Fuel from seeds the by products can be utilized as organic manure to crops. Also any diesel engine can run on bio-diesel and petrol engines can run on bio-ethanol. Trees that produce Bio-Fuel seeds are: Honge, Hippe, neem and laxmitaru, simarouba. various training programmes and workshops are organized by University of Agriculture sciences to disseminate knowledge and share information about profit sharing to farmers across state.
Language Controversy Around NEET-Exams
NEET & CET controversy is haunting state Govt. as the Govt, failed to communicate to the central Govt. that its intention to have NEET-National Eligibility & Entrance Test for Medicine in both Kannada and English. Ironically C.E.T- Common entrance Test held by state Govt. itself is unable to give exams in both English and Kannada and State Govt. Urging centre to provide NEET in Kannada is ridiculous. State Govt. which had earlier not shown any interest in conducting NEET in Kannada is now shedding crocodile tears and blaming central for the situation, while Central is passing the ball to state court telling "implementation can't be done in neck moment", and state Govt, is responsible for miscommunication. In this tussle between State and Central 'Kannada language' lost its chances to make a sound in NEET-Exam question papers!
