Mangaluru, Nov 15: Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit Shah today released a booklet highlighting the achievements of Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel after being elected to the parliament for the second time in 2014. 

The book titled Modiya Hadiyalli Naalkane Varsha (Fourth Year on Modi’s Path) was released in the presence of district BJP leaders at Ocean Pearl Hotel in the city. 

There was speculation that his visit was to plan strategies for next year’s Lok Sabha elections in Karnataka and neighbouring Kerala.

Mr Shah, who landed at Mangaluru International Airport at around 8:30 p.m. last night arrived at the Akhil Bharatiya Karya Vibhag Pracharak Varg of the RSS at Sanghaniketan, its local headquarters at Mannagudda, late in the evening. 

Cow slaughter, Sabarimala shrine row and Ram temple are some of the issues which were reportedly discussed at a meeting in the presence of Amit Shah on last night. With the BJP sweeping the 2018 Assembly elections in six coastal and Malnad districts in Karnataka, and the party now eyeing the Sabarimala issue in the neighbouring Kerala, Mr. Shah’s visit assumed significance. 

The BJP in Kerala had launched its six-day Sabarimala Rath Yatra from neighbouring Kasaragod to Pathanamthitta on November 8. The yatra flagged off by State BJP chief B.S. Yeddyurappa and led by Kerala BJP State president P.S. Sreedharan Pillai ended on Tuesday. 

About 250 full-time RSS volunteers from Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Maharashtra are participating in a ‘refresher course’, from November 11, being held under the leadership of Suresh ‘Bhaiyajji’ Joshi, sarkaryavah (national general secretary) of the RSS.

Bengaluru, Apr 18: The Karnataka government has managed to get the contact details of nine out of 10 foreign nationals who had visited Jubilant Life Sciences, a pharmaceutical company in Mysuru district's Nanjangud which has been declared a coronavirus hotspot, State minister S Suresh Kumar said on Saturday.

As many as 66 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in Nanjangud.

While investigating the source of virus in what is now known as 'Nanjangud cluster', the Mysuru administration could get information that 10 foreign nationals had visited this town, Kumar told reporters.

Soon the External Affairs Ministry's help was sought which managed to track nine of them, Kumar said, adding that the MEA contacted its embassies in China, Germany, Japan and the USA to track these persons.

"Out of 10, they could contact nine and got details. All of them have said that they were all healthy and they did not have any symptoms.

Hence, they did not feel the need to undergo COVID-19 tests," the minister said.

He opined that many people do not show the symptoms but they could be carriers of the virus.
