Mangaluru, Nov 17: B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan, Minister for Food and Civil Supplies, Minority and Wakf has directed officials to issue remaining LPG connections under the Anila Bhagya scheme in Dakshina Kannada by November-end.

During a review meeting at Circuit House, officials from Food and Civil Supplies Department said of the 1,586 beneficiaries identified in the district it had been planned to give LPG connections to 1,349 beneficiaries from the below poverty line category in the first phase. So far, connections were issued to 581 beneficiaries.

Mr. Khan directed officials to complete the process by the end of November.

When officials pointed to the demand for green gram as against tur dal at ration shops in the district, the Minister asked officials to make necessary changes and provide food grains that the region’s people needed.

The Minister said they are yet to finalise talks with private telecom service providers to set up systems for operation of point of sale machines in ration shops in areas in DK with poor internet connectivity.

There are about 25 areas having this problem. The Minister asked officials to act against ration shops that have deliberately not installed point of sale machines by falsely stating poor internet connection.

Mr. Khan said construction of Haj bhavan will be taken up after finalisation of land in Adyar in the outskirts of the city.

Riyadh, July 6: The government of Saudi Arabia has announced health protocols to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus in the 2020 Hajj season, banning gatherings and meetings between pilgrims.

Saudi Arabia decided in June to limit the number of domestic pilgrims attending the Hajj to around 1,000 to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, after barring pilgrims abroad from the rite for the first year in modern times.

Touching the Kaaba, the holiest site in Islam, will be banned during the Hajj this year, and a social distancing space of a meter and a half between each pilgrim during the rituals including mass prayers and while in the Kaaba circling area will be imposed, a statement by the Center for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC) elaborated.

Also, access to holy Hajj sites at Mina, Muzdalifah and Arafat will be limited to those with Hajj permits starting Sunday July 19 till Aug. 2 2020, and wearing masks all the time will be mandatory for both pilgrims and organisers.
