Hassan, Jun 5: Hardline Hindutva leader Anant kumar Hegde will soon receive at least 1,000 pieces of langotis for calling the Janata Dal (Secular) a ‘Putgosi Paksha’ (langoti or loincloth party).

Coming down heavily on Congress-JD(S) coalition government in Karnataka, Mr. Hegde, who is also Uttara Kannada BJP MP and Union Minister for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, had described JD(S) as a ‘putgosi pakasha’ recently.

Condemning his remarks, the JD(S) launched a ‘Putgosi Chalavali’ (langoti campaign) yesterday and posted several pieces of loincloths to his residence.

“We will send at least 1,000 pieces of loincloth to his residences, at his native place and in Bengaluru, and his offices in Delhi and in his constituency,” the JD(S) activists said.

All channel reporters should ask this hate monger to give a pose in one of the Langot he received from his well wishers.   He should also be asked if he has distributed the remaining longotes amongst his relatives and party workers includes women.

Sending langotis to his residence is not sufficient. He should wear langotis during his hat speach.

Bengaluru, Jul 3: Over 35 acres of land in nine villages on the outskirts of Bengaluru have been earmarked for burial and cremation of bodies of COVID-19 victims after concerns were raised over the safety of funerals being held in burial grounds located in residential areas.

Deputy Commissioner of Bengaluru Urban District GN Shivamurthy issued an order setting apart about 35.5 acres in the villages under four Taluks of Bengaluru North, Bengaluru South, Anekal and Yelahanka.

The order directed the respective Tahsildars to register these chunks of land as reserved for burial grounds and not to use for any purpose.

According to the sources in the district administration, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu and Revenue Minister R Ashoka had directed the officials to identify places on the city outskirts to dispose of the bodies of COVID-19 victims.

Mr Sriramulu had on Wednesday said COVID-19 victims will not be laid to rest in burial grounds in the city and separate places will be earmarked on the outskirts in the backdrop of safety concerns raised by public.

He had also warned against unscientific disposal of used Personal Protection Equipment kits worn by the families of the victim for the final rites, referring to reports about such instances.

In some places, people have also expressed concern over bodies of those who died of the coronavirus being buried in their neighbourhood.

Mangaluru, Jul 31: Muslims across coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada today observed Eid al Adha following the safety guidelines issued by the government amidst covid-19 pandemic. 

While coastal Karnataka is celebrating the festival of sacrifice today, it will be observed in other parts of Karnataka and country tomorrow. 

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.
