Belonging to the Golden Era\r\nof Music which boasted of the Who\u2019s Who of India\u2019s greatest\r\nsingers like the Mangeshkar sisters, Mohammad Rafi, Mukesh,\r\nYesudas, Hemant Kumar, Kishore Kumar to name just a\r\nfew, the prolific singer sang around 50,000 songs in her\r\nillustrious career. She sang in multiple languages and she\r\nrecorded the maximum number of songs in Kannada and these\r\nincluded solos and duets with such greats like Dr Rajkumar,\r\nSP Balasubrahmanyam and PB Srinivas.\r\n\r\nHailing from Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh, her\r\nexceptional talent was noticed and nurtured at a very young\r\nage. Then on, opportunities came her way and there was no\r\nlooking back. Her rise to fame was meteoric! During the course\r\nof her musical journey, the songstress has been bestowed\r\nwith many awards \u2013 the National Award 4 times, many state\r\ngovernment awards and the Padma Bhushan in 2013 which\r\nshe declined. The melody queen loved Karnataka and chose to\r\nspend her twilight years at Mysore where she breathed her last.\r\nJanakiamma as she was also called may have left us but her\r\nsweet voice still lingers! Adieu great one!\r\n\r\nThe Special Intensive Revision better known by its\r\nacronym SIR, has created a wave of confusion across the state\r\nand the country. From lack of clarity to lingual issues, the\r\npublic is finding it difficult to comprehend what exactly needs\r\nto be done. Only a small fraction of the populace are believed\r\nto have got things right with many complaining that things are\r\njust not getting registered in their coconuts (read as brains) and\r\nas a result they are going nuts!\r\n\r\nIt is just not the hoi polloi who are struggling, even the\r\nBooth Level Officers better known as BLOs are struggling\r\nto explain to voters what needs to be done. A majority of the\r\nBLOs are overcome by fatigue as they have stiff production\r\ntargets to meet. Not surprisingly, the BLOs posted in areas\r\nwhere there a large number of unlettered citizens have to put\r\nup with a lot of challenges. More help desks and better planning\r\nare the need of the hour! Hope things get sorted out soon and\r\nall of us can heave a sigh of relief!\r\n\r\n\r\nBlurrb\u2026\r\nGanna Kogile S Janaki passes away leaving behind teary-eyed fans\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194],"tags":[195],"class_list":["post-5436","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-edit","tag-edit"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Farewell Nightingale!
