The post ಮಂಗ್ಳುರಿ ಯುವಕ್ ಡೆನ್ಮಾರ್ಕಾಚೊ ಹ್ಯೂಗೊ ಅಲ್ಮೇಡಾ ಜಿಕ್ಲೊ ‘ಎಕ್ಸ್ ಫ್ಯಾಕ್ಟರ್ ಡೆನ್ಮಾರ್ಕ್ 2026’ appeared first on Budkulo.

The program commenced with an invocation by Fr. Sudeep Paul, Director of Sandesha, followed by a welcome address from Rachana President Roy Castelino. Underscoring the urgency of technological adoption, Castelino stated that the training reflects the chamber’s commitment to ensuring its members are prepared for both today’s challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities. He described the workshop as the beginning of a new chapter in the community’s journey toward innovation and progress in a rapidly changing world.

Lead trainer Leo Victor Zalki, Director of Oxidane Enviro LLP, provided a deep dive into the practicalities of AI during the technical sessions. Addressing the common anxiety regarding job security, Zalki offered a sobering perspective, noting that while AI will not replace humans, individuals with AI knowledge will inevitably replace those without it. He introduced a structured six-step prompt framework – encompassing Persona, Task, Context, Examples, Format, and Tone – to help business owners extract high-quality, accurate outputs from tools like ChatGPT & others.

The workshop also addressed the ethical complexities of the digital boom, with Zalki highlighting critical concerns regarding data privacy. Because AI systems rely heavily on user data, he warned that the risk of misuse remains a growing threat and urged users to keep ethics at the core of their digital operations. Furthermore, he advised parents to monitor their children’s engagement with platforms like Snapchat to mitigate privacy risks and growing digital dependency.

During the hands-on segment, participants actively used various AI applications to generate marketing posters, videos, and music, demonstrating the immediate practical potential of AI in business promotion.
Srujana Mathais emerged as the interactive quiz winner. ‘Fortune Wheel’ giveaway winners included Ramola Agnes Monteiro, Jeevan Sunil Veigas, Viraj Sequeira, Joel Crasta, and Asha DSouza. All participants were awarded certificates upon the successful completion of the workshop.

Nearly 100 participants attended the session, signalling strong interest in adopting emerging technologies for business growth and sustainability.

Main resource person, AI strategist and cybersecurity expert Leo Victor Zalki underscored the transformative impact of Artificial Intelligence across industries.

He also highlighted potential cybersecurity risks associated with AI adoption and emphasised the need for responsible and ethical use.

Rev. Dr. Fr. Sudeep Paul, Director of Sandesha Foundation for Culture and Education, addressed the ethical and social implications of technological advancement. He urged participants to view Artificial Intelligence not only as a driver of economic growth but also as a means to promote inclusive development and community welfare. Stressing the importance of value-based leadership, he called for a balanced and responsible approach to integrating technology in business practices.

The programme featured interactive sessions that offered practical guidance on how small and medium enterprises can leverage AI tools for marketing, customer engagement, and operational efficiency. Participants actively engaged with the speakers, raising questions on implementation challenges and opportunities within local business contexts.

Organisers said the initiative was designed to bridge the gap between traditional business models and modern technological advancements. “Our objective is to empower our community with the knowledge and skills needed to remain relevant in a rapidly evolving landscape” said president of Rachana.

The training programme was conducted free of cost and was exclusively open to members of the Catholic business community, reflecting the organisation’s commitment to capacity building and community development.

Adding a practical dimension to the programme, Arun Lobo delivered a focused presentation demonstrating real-world applications of AI tools for business operations. He outlined how entrepreneurs, especially in the small and medium sector, can effectively integrate AI into areas such as digital marketing, customer engagement, and workflow automation. His session provided hands-on insights, making complex concepts more accessible to participants.

President Roy Castelino welcomed the gathering and introduced the resource persons. He reiterated the Chamber’s vision of fostering innovation, ethical entrepreneurship, and collaborative growth. Secretary Alron Rodrigues expressed gratitude to the resource persons and participants for their enthusiastic involvement.

The event concluded with participants gaining a deeper understanding of both the opportunities and responsibilities associated with Artificial Intelligence, marking a significant step towards grassroots-level digital empowerment.

Even though the Vatican gave green signal to conduct Liturgy in vernacular languages, long back in 1965 itself, during the Second Vatican Council, Christians in these regions remained unfortunate. They were denied their fundamental right to have Mass and other prayers in their mother tongue. The outcome of this denial has been very disastrous for Konkani. Current generation kids have become strangers to Konkani, their community’s language, tradition and culture.

While the then Mangalore and Karwar Dioceses allowed Konkani to be their main language and inducted it into the Liturgy, then Chikkamagaluru Diocese (including current Shivamogga at that time), in spite of overwhelming majority of Konkani speakers, denied Konkani into Altar. Then Bishop Alphonse Mathias being a pure Konkani son, was determined to keep Konkani far away from Liturgy wholeheartedly! His successor Bishop J.B. Sequeira too followed the same reluctant policy and refused Konkani.

Similarly happened in Bangalore and other Dioceses.

Though it was very late, few leaders realised the setback and damage around some 20 years back. Since one and half decade, it has become a strong movement. When the Church did not listen, it was inevitable to take legal a path. Bishops and priests, mostly Konkani, are still reluctant for Konkani Mass. Sad irony!!

After collective efforts few parishes are given permission for Konkani Mass in these Dioceses. But still more to achieve. In many parishes, where Konkani Catholics are in large numbers, yet to get this privilege. They have been waiting, demanding and fighting for this, patiently, since years.

Legal battles are also yielding decisive success. An objection filed by the Bishop against Konkani Liturgy, was rejected by Chikkamagaluru Court, recently. Also, the High Court of Karnataka has upheld the Bengaluru Civil Court’s order in favour of Konkani Mass. Yet, adamant Bishops and priests are not in favour of Konkani people’s legitimate demand.

Many might be thinking why all this mess or quarrel in the name of language! There is nothing wrong. Konkani people from the parishes where they are in solid numbers, asking Mass in their loving language. They are just demanding what they need. They are asking for the rights given to them by the Vatican, highest body of Catholic Church and also by Indian Law. They never asked to deny others’ rights. While people from different languages get their basic rights, same is demanded by Konkani devotees.

Result of denying Konkani in liturgy has many serious outcomes. In earlier years families, while praying at home, during rosary, used Konkani only. But gradually, since catechism was taught in Kannada, kids could not cope up with Konkani prayers. Later on at many houses, even parents had to shift to Kannada prayers due to their children’s sake. This has put Konkani, their loving mother tongue & natural favorite language, at risk of diminishing. A wonderful culture was made to suffer, brutally.

Bengaluru Arch Bishop, Shivamogga and Chikkamagaluru Bishops, at least now, should let people have their genuine demands fulfilled. There is no meaning in being stubborn against a justifiable demand. Moreover, denying Liturgy in mother tongue, a majority community in respective parishes, is just disobeying Vatican’s guidelines. Also it is against the Indian Constitution. Hence these Bishops and respective Priests must allow Konkani Mass where people demand for it.

The post Advocate Dilraj Rohit Sequeira Elected President of GOPIO Bangalore Chapter appeared first on Budkulo.

He is none other than Vincent John Peter Saldanha.

Yes, he is the great V.J.P. Saldanha, who is also known as ‘Khadaap – ಖಡಾಪ್’ (The Rock). He literally was a rock (foundation) of Konkani literature.

Spectacular Historical Novels:

After his study on the history of Canara Christians, VJP chose to present it in a different way. Canara Christians captivity by Tipu Sultan was a deadly episode of our ancestors. VJP Saldanha, using the historical facts and characters, wrote ‘Devachye Kurpen’ novel first, which was then published in ‘Poinnari’ weekly from Mumbai. He had created many fictional characters. The protagonist Sardar Simon became most celebrated adventurous hero in Konkani. This novel became a super hit. Later same was published in ‘Raknno’. Devachye Kurpen is considered as the most wonderful novel in Konkani.

Later, after receiving enormous admiration by the readers, VJP continued the saga. He wrote total seven mighty novels regarding Tipu’s Captivity. But he gave separate titles for each novel. The further novels are: 2. Belthangadycho Balthazar, 3. Sardaranchi Synol, 4. Imfernachim Daram, 5. Sardarachem Sannidhan, 6. Bandadenth Balidan and 7. Mogachim Mahima. These 7 novels are spread across 2000 pages!

These stories were widely accepted, admired and praised by readers. Later he focused on Goa’s Inquisition. Inquisition was the main reason for Konkani Christians (and also others) to migrate from Goa to the south. VJP wrote novels on this topic and he presented five big novels. First in the series was ‘Saiba Bhogos’. Followed by 2. Purvaz Pardeshanth, 3. Vanjelachye Vater, 4. Jivo va Mello and 5. Ya Tari Mangalapuri.

VJP Saldanha has written two more separate, fantastic novels. His Sovo Surngarun, a mini novel explains the situation in Mangalore when Hyderali was becoming prominent in Mysore state’s administration. Bandadechem Daiz novel is written on the time of captivity imposition and after.

After huge popularity and demand, VJP converted his Sardaranchi Synol novel into a drama. This drama also became a blockbuster.

VJP was the finest writer. He has written many other novels, short stories, plays, poetry, hymns and articles. His writing talent is ultimate.

Magnificent Characters, Actions, Adventures and more…

VJP Saldanha was a very genius writer. His way of writing was exceptional. He is well known for creating excellent characters. His characters are very masculine. Along with Sardar Simon, he has created many wonderful characters. Few among them are Agnes Cecilia, Veronica Coelho, Rafael Mingel Kamath, Sardar Yusuf Ali, Anthulo Padval. VJP is best at creating powerful villain characters. Sardar Anthony, Dr Marian & others really mesmerise the readers in his thousands of pages of writings.

In Saiba Bhogos series, the protagonist is Synor John. Other prominent characters in it are Sinor Bulbanv Peregrin, Villain Papias etc.

VJP’s literature, particularly these historical novels, are full of adventures.There are plenty of action scenes including horse riding, sword fighting, wrestling, war scenes and many such tricky encounters. His description is very precise. His intelligence (of imagination) and execution ability is amazing. That’s why his readers get thrilled reading his writings.

Pioneer Editor in Konkani & Kannada

VJP was the founder Editor of ‘Poinnari’ weekly, from1950. He has worked as Sub Editor in ‘Navabharatha’ Daily, Mangalore. VJP had started a Kannada daily, ‘Kannada Vani’, but it did not last long. VJP was the founder Editor of St Aloysius College’s Konkani magazine ‘Amar Konkani’. He was the first President of Karnataka Konkani Sahitya Academy.

VJP Saldanha was born on 9th June, 1925. Today is his hundredth birth day. VJP not just laid the foundation for the rich Konkani literature era, he also enriched it by his marvelous contribution through glorious writings.

In 2024, Rachana celebrates its Silver Jubilee. While congratulating all those who have been part of Rachana, the Catholic Chamber of Commerce and Industry, it will be fantastic to retrospect its journey of those glorious 25 years. This is a perfect time to know what Rachana is all about. Let us now indulge in knowing the footsteps and milestones Rachana has witnessed.

The Beautiful Beginning, a New Saga

20th Century was known for opportunities, unlimited opportunities. Towards the end of 20th century, world was transforming into digital era. Mangalore might be a small dot on planet earth, it is a big world to everyone who have been ever connected to it. A charming town beside the Arabian sea, spread between the cojoined Netravathi & Phalguni rivers, Mangalore has been a hub of modern civilisation. A wonderful destination for love, peace, harmony, progress & hospitality. With bounty of natural beauty and scenic richness, Mangalore has played a significant role throughout recent history.

Christians have been amply living in Mangalore. In fact, Mangalore is also called as ‘Rome’ of the East. In coastal Karnataka, Christians have been a dominating community since four centuries. While most of the Christians were settled in farming activities, there were people who also involved in commercial activities & manufacturing. In every town, you find Christian landmarks. That’s Mangalore.

It was the year 1998. By that time Mangalore Konkani Catholic community was craving for big. Catholic Sabha was spreading from parish to parish. There was a senior organisation ‘Catholic Association of South Kanara’, CASK, but it was limited to elite class. Christians entered Kannada journalism with a big bang. Constant call for having own Kannada Daily, penetrated few leaders, hence a public limited company, Janamadhyama Prakashana Limited was established. With great hope & enthusiasm Janavahini Daily emerged as a prominent, influential & colourful Newspaper in Karnataka from Mangalore.

Janavahini stunned the Newspaper industry in the State by its content, presentation and colour printing. It brought great changes in Kannada Journalism. Janavahini compelled all other Newspapers to adapt new technologies. It was a revolutionary child in the mighty industry. Unfortunately, Mangalore Catholic Community proved their inefficiency to run a Newspaper, very badly. Janavahini could not survive beyond fiver years. It was another humiliating set back for Christians, from within.

Businessmen and industrialists of Mangalore from all communities had come under one umbrella long before. Kanara Chamber of Commerce & Industry (KCCI) was instrumental for Mangalore’s growth. Many Christians were part of it.

Similar attempts, to bring Christian Entrepreneurs under a common roof, were not successful. There was an infomal gathering in the name of ‘CREAM’ but it did not get any direction. In Mangalore, many mouths often were whispering the need of a united forum for Christian business fraternity. All those wishes eventurally materialised and finally a moment was awaiting for the official launch.

The One Man Army in Catholic Sabha

A businessman, called Maritto Sequeira from Bendur, who was at the helm of organisational mission in Mangalore Diocese, was a glittering face of Catholic Sabha. Catholic Sabha, established in Udupi was spreading very slowly in different Parishes of Mangalore Diocese. It was a turning point when Maritto Sequeira happened to be its flag bearer. Under his leadership Catholic Sabha’s Bendur unit was started.

That was the beginning of another thrilling chapter of Mangalore Diocese. Maritto, Marcel Monteiro, Felix Pinto & others worked relentlessly to establish Units of Catholic Sabha in more and more Parishes. Maritto Sequeira rose to the position of Zonal President of Catholic Sabha by his own merit. At such time, Maritto who belonged to a business family, got the opportunity to garner few minds who were willing for the unification of Christian entrepreneurs.

Few like minded enthusiasts eventually came together. Since Maritto had a good banner behind him in Catholic Sabha, as he says, it was easy to attract personalities to ignite ideas. These visionaries sat together for discussion with a goal to create history.

Along with Maritto Sequeira, KAS Officer J.R. Lobo, Bank officer Marjorie Texeira, CA Rudolph Rodrigues, Advocate JJV Fernandes and few others joined together, in turn it resulted in the initiation of Rachana, which is celebrating silver jubilee today.

First Leap: Catholic Entrepreneurs’ Meet

After deliberate attempts, on 6th September 1998, under the banner of Catholic Sabha Mangalore Zone Catholic Entrepreneurs’ Meet was organised at St Sebastian Platinum Jubilee Auditorium, Bendur. Then Bishop, Rev. Aloysius Paul DSouza inaugurated the meet. IAS officer B.A. Coutinho, who was the Secretary of Karnataka Govt., gave key note address. While Maritto Sequeira presided, Businessman and Former President of Catholic Sabha Central Committee Walter DSouza presented objectives of the meet and also took the charge of moderator. KAS Officer J.R. Lobo presented the key points for the association. Hilda Alva, Mayor of Mangalore, Judith Mascarenhas, Deputy Mayor were the guests. Bendur Unit of Catholic Sabha hosted the event, while Milagres Unit supported. Few hundred people attended.

Activists had collected addresses of around 1000 persons who were indulged in business, industry, profession, agriculture, plantation etc from Dakshina Kannada and neighbouring Districts.

Main goals, vision in the meeting was focused on helping & supporting each other, Co-operation & having Corpus Fund for the members. Selfless service was the mission.

That was a sensational meeting. It forcified the energy of frontrunners to establish an association for themselves. On 27th September, 1998 a 14 member Adhoc committee was formed, Maritto being its President.

Eventually Rachana was inaugurated on 1st November, 1998. Santhosh DSouza, President of Small Scale Industries Association, Baikampady and Jacob Crasta, President, KASSIA, Bangalore were the guests on that day.

The name ‘Rachana’ itself explains everything about its existence and purpose. Really a creative and apt name. It was Advocate Eric Sequeira (brother of Maritto) who suggested this name called ‘Rachana’ and it was happily accepted.

1999: First Office Bearers Elected

Following conscious efforts, Rachana’s first AGM was held on 8th August 1999. On that day office bearers of Rachana were elected. Bank Officer John Alex Sequeira became the first President of Rachana.

JR Lobo, CA Rudolph Rodrigues, Merline Monteiro, Santhosh DSouza, Arthur Pinto and Rose Mary Albuquerque were chosen as Members. Catholic Sabha’s Zonal President Maritto Sequeira, Marcel Monteiro, Rudolph DSilva & another joined as Ex Officio Members.

Incidentally, first President of Rachana, John Alex Sequeira, who was retired from Corporation Bank, was serving as Additional General Manager (AGM) in Janavahini’s head office in Baikampady.

From 1999 onwards, along past 25 years, Rachana has got various Presidents and Office Bearers, under whom Rachana has flourished. Marjorie Texeira became second president of Rachana. Following presidents are – Roy Castelino, Rudolph DSilva, Marcel Monteiro, Ronald Isaac Gomes, John S. Noronha, Ivan DSouza, John B.
