Puttur: Shakuntala Shetty urges govt to ban mobile phones in schools, colleges


Daijiworld Media Network - Puttur

Puttur, Jul 12: Chairperson of the legislative standing committee on the women and child welfare department Shakuntala Shetty, who is also the MLA of Puttur, has urged the government to ban mobile phones in all colleges across the state.

Also, she demanded that when women go to the police station for any reason, the police should not use abusive or discriminatory language, and if they do so, it should be reported. The police should speak and behave decently so that women feel secure. All police stations across the state should be made women-friendly, and a programme aimed at achieving this goal should be initiated immediately, she stressed in her report to the government.

Shakuntala Shetty made these recommendations in a report submitted by the women and child welfare department on various issues like women's reservation, women in cinema field, rape cases in state, life of working women, visually impaired girls' educaton, women's development etc on Friday July 11 in the legislate Assembly.

Though the standing committee has recommended a ban on mobile phones in schools and colleges, it has not explained any reason behind the recommendation. "Students should be strictly prohibited from bringing mobile phones to schools and colleges. The education department should notify the government in this regard," is all that the report stated.

The committee also expressed worry over that fact that in districts like Dakshina Kannada and some others, increasing number of women and girls have been going missing. A thorough enquiry has to be conducted in this regard, the committee urged.

The committee recommended that in order to bring transparency into the functioning of police stations, measures should be taken to install CCTV cameras in every station. Also, women personnel should form 20 percent of the police team in each station, and separate police stations for women should be established. Separate toilets should be constructed for women police personnel and for women who come to police station with complaints, the committee recommended.

    Without making any research first how can she just urge the government to impose such baseless and careless move. First take a poll, see what the students and parents have to say regarding the same. If the feedback Is positive, then next step is to make all the necessary arrangements so that parents could get in touch with the kids in case of emergency or any need. Make sure there is an alternative way to contact. Then impose.

    I strongly oppose this move, which is just put forward to show that the
    MLA is active nothing else. The old and outdated mindset has to change first. Banning the use is not at all an option.

    Colleges can afford to put up "mobile signal jammers" with all the huge donations they receive to solve the problem of mobile use during college hours.
    As for student's mobile usage, this must be restricted by the parents having a talk down with the students.You cannot ban something that in today's world has become a means of necessity for various aspects - knowledge, advancement, social awareness,etc.
    Ms. Shetty belongs to age which has a narrow minded thinking - "She says "I was in college and I did not use it" Well there are a great many who still believe in the old ways and are progress-phobia.

    My opinion is restrict/refrain cell phones to children and adolescents.

    T.V. is good as well as Bad. – Use the T.V. for Good and Shun the bad.

    Friends are good as well as Bad – Have Good friends and shun bad friends.

    A man & a Woman are good as a well as bad. – Do the Good and Shun bad.

    Mobile is good as well as Bad. – Use the mobile for Good and Shun the bad.

    We can read good as well as Bad. – Read good ones and shun the bad ones.

    We can see good as well as bad. – See the good one and shun the bad ones.

    Films are good as well as bad. – See only Good movies and Shun bad movies.

    Alcohol is good as well as bad. – Drink alcohol for good and don’t be addicted to it.

    We can hear good as well as Bad. – Hear whatever is good for you and shun the bad.

    Our eyes cause and cover 55 percent of sin.
    Our ears cause and cover 25 percent of sin.
    Our hands and legs cause and cover 20 percent of sin.

    It would be blissful that every human have self control, shun bad ones and adopt good ones.

    A Brahmin is not a super Human.
    Share, love and care every Human.

    Some times I hate media for their negative propaganda. Otherwise, in this case, there are so many valid points in the study report which need to be implemented. But all media including national media highlighting one point about recommendation to ban use of mobile phones! why? I agree that it is not a wise advice to ban mobiles for students as it may become handy in case of emergencies. But there are other good recommendations like CCTVs, women police force etc.
    Further, in recent murders of girls we can observe that these things are happening in semi urban cities, where there are still villages with forest lands through which girls have to travel alone between schools and homes. Authorities have to identify such lonely areas frequently used by the village girls to travel. Install police posts near such areas.

She carries mobile phone and does not misuse.We taught our child to be honest and never to misuse our trust.her mobile is open and does not lock,even we sometime answer her calls.These days we as parents spoil our kids, look at Bikes kids use,rash driving, drugs and smoking.these politicians only want to save their seats.Citizens for me safety matters. plz train and create trust between parents and children.Set your life as example.these days children play lot of hide and seek.I suggest colleges to use mobile signal jammers.

    Dear Ms. Shetty,
    Please talk something which is practical. Due to mobile phones only many girls / women escaped from rapists. Based on the mobile & tower information police can solve many criminal cases of missing girls. If there is no mobile, it is final death knell for girls / ladies.
    I prefer my daughter to carry mobile to college. If she sense any smell of problem, immediately she can alert me or police. Even the troublemakers stop following her the moment they find her calling someone on mobile.

    Many schools n colleges have banned. Parents don't give mobiles to your school going children. What's up, Facebook, Viber has bought down the eduction standard considerably. Children's mind is concentrated more on this than education. Watching porn sites in Smart phones have increased in students. There is nothing wrong in Karnataka MLA's positive thinking. Only fools will criticize this.

    It is better to appoint/depute Social Workers with MSW degree in every Police Stations with the minimum power of Inspector of Police. These social workers must be from Dept. of Women and Child Welfare or Human Development. They can visit homes and take complaints with compassionate manner and also able to counsel the complainants and victims.

    Going to the Police Station is challenging not only for women folks but also for some dignified and sensitive males.

    The police still have a mind-set of British Era and it takes long time for them to be civilized. You cannot teach old dog a new trick.

    Mobile phones provide a secure feeling to parents who send their children to school over long distances without any security. Schools must either ask the mobiles to be switched off inside class rooms or make arrangements for the safe custody of the same. May be they can even charge a small fee for this. Banning them is a crazy idea.

    Very Good Move ! Even though they can Ban officially it may not be possible to make sure no one bring mobile phone to class. I am sure students especially girls will hide the smart phones somewhere and hard for the teachers to implement the rule. Instead please recommend to install Mobile Phone Signal Jammers in and around college area so that no one can use phone in the campus during campus timings.

    do you know what they are watching in their mobile set? which is not atall necessary towards their education and learning. due to this entire education system is going out of control and poor students have an embarrassment situation when they watch others are using a costly set.
    using Mobiles inside the school room shud be banned all over country for school and colleges, out side the campus let them use who ask?
    we will support Shakuntala Shetty on this issue, and Govt must act upon seriously.

    I think basic mobile without any extra gadgets including camera must be allowed. The problems have started ever since smart phone came in. The police station must first all all change it's design. Ever police station looks like a dungeon. More open area with glazz facades must be installed. Well mannared and groom front office staff must be posted. Police station must be connected with emergency alarms where in people must be able to alert the police from certain vantage areas.
    Respecting girls must be thought from the child's womb itself. Our elders (especially granny's) must be given through class on it. Parents must be involved in the education process. The system must allow the parents to attend the class along with their children in lower class atleast once a month. They must be aware of what is thought in school and the same must be monitored and follwed at home. the chidrens
    's behaviour class must be parents home work. Only by this process we can atleast make sure the future boys learn to respect girls.
