Kundapur, Feb 20: Mere knowledge to read and write is not education. Those who have not gone to school also have made great achievements in business. If one achieves success in business getting knowledge in it, it is a victory of a stage. We should develop the mentality of savings and business, said Dharmastala Dharmadhikari Dr D Veerendra Heggade.

He was speaking after inaugurating in the installation of new office bearers of new Kundapur taluk and Bydoor taluk Akhila Karnataka Janajagruthi vedike and distributing two wheelers and auto rickshaws to self employment seekers in Tallur.

Change and conversion are the intentions of the scheme. Awareness on banking is created among rural women. They have developed business mind, he said.

We see several people becoming victims of alcoholism and drugs these days. Stay away from them, he said. Kundapur taluk panchayat president Shamala Kunder chaired the programme.

Heggade honored outgoing president B Appanna Hegde. Office bearers of vedike, taluk panchayat and district panchayat were present.

Vaishnavi, who secured tenth rank in CA exams, was felicitated. District director Ganesh B welcomed the gathering. R Navinchandra rendered the vote of thanks. Kundapur taluk agriculture officer Chetan Kumar and Byndoor supervisor Prema conducted the programme.
