Bengaluru, Jul 25: Entering into a pre-poll alliance with the Congress for the Lok Sabha polls will depend on how the JD(S) is treated, Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy said Tuesday.

“The agenda is there,” he told reporters when asked about the JD(S) forging a pre-poll alliance with the Congress. “But let’s see how the Congress will treat the JD(S),” he said.

This remark comes a day after a section of Congress exerted pressure on the party’s leadership to take the Hassan or Mandya Lok Sabha seats, which are JD(S) strongholds. The Hassan seat is currently held by JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda whereas Mandya was represented by C S Puttaraju of the JD(S), until he won the Assembly polls.

While AICC general secretary in-charge of Karnataka K C Venugopal has already announced that the Congress and the JD(S) will fight the Lok Sabha polls together, the state leaders have maintained that not much has progressed in terms of finalising the modalities of the pre-poll alliance. A section of Congress leaders thinks allying with the JD(S) may not be in the party’s best interests.

Kumaraswamy, however, was positive on the effort that is underway to stitch an anti-BJP alliance - the Mahagathbandhan. “That will continue,” he said.

Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president Dinesh Gundu Rao, meanwhile, said that the priority for the party is to think about how it can win maximum number of seats in the Lok Sabha election. Karnataka has 28 seats.

Rao also reiterated the warning that no leader should wash dirty linen in public. “The party will not accept personal attacks against leaders and criticism of the Congress-JD(S) coalition,” Rao said, justifying the show-cause notice issued to senior leaders K B Koliwad and K N Rajanna.

Rao clarified that former chief minister Siddaramaiah is not against the Congress wanting to fight the Lok Sabha polls with the JD(S). “The high command has already decided. Also, Siddaramaiah is not opposed to the coalition that we have,” he stated.

Mangaluru, June 27: The district health authorities are likely to conduct mass random testing for Covid-19 in Ullal town on the outskirts of the city in the wake of detection of several new coronavirus positive cases there in past couple few days.  

An elderly woman from Azad Nagar in Ullal was died of coronavirus earlier this week. Many others including a couple of policemen also tested positive for the deadly virus in vicinity.

Following this, local elected representatives including MLA U T Khader and religious leaders of Ullal held a meeting regarding taking steps to control the spread of the virus. In the meeting Mr Khader suggested the authorities to conduct random testing in Ullal town. 

Apart from Azad Nagar, covid-19 cases have surfaced in Kodi, Bangera Lane and in the surroundings of police station and Sahara Hospital triggering panic among people. Hence, the authorities are like to conduct random testing of auto rickshaw drivers, fishermen, street vendors among others. 

Meanwhile, several mosques in Ullal have reportedly decided to suspend congregational prayers temporarily.

Bengaluru, Aug 2: Bengaluru based Centre for Advanced Research and Development (CARD), the research wing of organisation De scalene has come up with a device called "SHYCOCAN" (Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon) which neutralizes the coronavirus.

Speaking to news agency Dr Rajah Vijay Kumar, Chairman, Organisation De Scalene said that the device will not kill any bacteria or fungus, however, neutralizes the coronavirus particles.

"The device was tested for its safety and efficacy and is soon going to be manufactured and marketed in the US under the Enforcement Discretion policy of USFDA and in Europe as the device is CE compliant and is CE marked," said Kumar.

He also added the device will cover a volume of 10,000 cubic feet.

The device Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon (SHYCOCAN) is intended to be used in the residential, industrial and commercial environment and is designed for active containment by attenuation of Corona family of viruses. (Laboratories de Especialidades Immunological S.A. de C.V, Virucidal Activity concludes 99.9 per cent virus elimination), Kumar asserted.

"SHYCOCAN operates on regular 110/240V - 50/60 Hz wall socket and is a plug and play device, that delivers the necessary signals to a photon mediated electrons emitters (PMEE), that produces hypercharge high-velocity electrons by photon mediation that interacts with the negative seeking S-protein of Corona family of viruses thus reducing infectivity and prevent air and surface borne transmission of corona family of viruses," said Kumar.

The device does not use any chemicals, or any other consumables and does not produce harmful ozone gas or any other substances and is completely safe for use in any environment, he added.

"The attack mechanism of the Virus starts with the initial attachment of the virion to the host cell, it is initiated by interactions between the S-protein and its receptor on the "negative" cell membrane. The sites of receptor binding domains (RBD) within the S1 region of a coronavirus S-protein vary depending on the virus. 

The S-protein/receptor interaction is the primary determinant for a coronavirus to infect a host species and governs the tissue tropism of the virus. However, the end result is the fusion and release of the viral genome into the cytoplasm," said Kumar.

He continued saying that the counter mechanism by the device SHYCOCAN is that if negative seeking is the guidance mechanism of the S- Protein, attracted by the transmembrane potential of the host cells, then breaking this mechanism would block the Coronavirus infectivity and spread.

"The device has been in use for more than a year at the S-CARD campus, the headquarters of Scalene," said Kumar.
