Ban circumcision among Muslims before stopping Hindu superstitions: KSE to CM

Shaastra Bhat Urimajalu
November 11, 2017

Bantwal, Nov 11: K S Eshwarappa, Leader of Opposition in the Karnataka Legislative Council, on Saturday dared the Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to ban circumcision, a common practice among Muslims, before trying to end superstitious practices of Hindu society.

This is one of the dozens of bizarre statements made by the hardcore Hindutva leader during his public address at BC Road town in Bantwal Assembly constituency of Dakshina Kannada district as part of Bharatiya Janata Party’s 75-day long Karnataka Parivartan Yatra.

In spite of severe opposition by Hindtuva elements, the Karnataka Cabinet had recently cleared the Karnataka Prevention and Eradication of Inhuman Evil Practices and Black Magic Bill-2017, aimed at curbing the superstitious practices in the society.

Coming down heavily on the CM over Tipu Jayanti celebrations, Eshwarappa said that Tipu’s blood was flowing through the veins of Siddaramaiah. Though the intention behind this statement was to hurt Siddaramaiah, the latter reportedly felt proud when the BJP leader linked his blood to the legendary Mysuru ruler, who had laid down his life in the battlefield fighting British forces.

Eshwarappa also criticized the Karnataka government for delaying the release of the much-awaited caste census report. It could be recalled here that BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa had earlier warned Siddaramaiah of state-wide protests if the census data was formally made public.

Eshwarappa also reportedly hurt the sentiments of some devote Hindus in the audience by saying that even the almighty God cannot stop B S Yeddyurappa from becoming the chief minister of Karnataka once again.

Oh God bestow wisdom to these people who became as leaders.

If a leader can be of this  lowest level of stupidity, what can be the mind level of  his common followers.

 

Circumcession is widely practiced in the western world than Muslims because of its scientific and health reasons.

The deadly coronavirus that entered India while there was still nip in the air has beaten rising mercury, humid conditions, unique Indian genome and has entered monsoon season with more potency as fresh cases are only breaking all records in the country.

India recorded a single-day spike of record 24,850 new coronavirus cases on Sunday, taking its total tally to 6.73 lakh corona-positive cases.

Top Indian microbiologists were hopeful in March that after the 21-day lockdown, as summer approaches, the rise in temperature would play an important role in preventing the drastic spread of COVID-19 virus in India.

Several virologists hinted that by June this year, the impact of COVID-19 would be less than what it appeared in March-April.

The claims have fallen flat as the virus is mutating fast, becoming more potent than ever.

According to experts, the novel coronavirus is a new virus whose seasonality and response to hot humid weather was never fully understood.

"The theory was based on the fact that high temperatures can kill the virus as in sterilisation techniques used in healthcare. But these are controlled environment conditions. There are many other factors besides temperature, humidity which influence the transmission rate among humans," Dr Anu Gupta, Head, Microbiologist and Infection Control, Fortis Escorts Heart Institute, told IANS.

There is no built-up immunity to COVID-19 in humans.

"Also, asymptomatic people might be passing it to many others unknowingly. New viruses tend not to follow the seasonal trend in their first year," Gupta emphasized.

Globally, as several countries are now experiencing hot weather, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported a record hike in the number of coronavirus cases, with the total rising by 2,12,326 in 24 hours in the highest single-day increase since COVID-19 broke out.

So far over 11 million people worldwide have tested positive for the disease which has led to over 5,25,000 deaths, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. The US remained the worst-hit country with over 28 lakh cases, followed by Brazil with 15.8 lakh.

According to Sandeep Nayar, Senior Consultant and HOD, Respiratory Medicine, Allergy & Sleep Disorders, BLK Super Speciality Hospital in New Delhi, whether temperature plays a role in COVID-19 infection is highly debated.

One school of thought said in the tropical regions of South Asia, the virus might not thrive longer.

"On the other hand, another school of thought has found that novel Coronavirus can survive in a hot and humid environment and tropical climate does not make a difference to the virus. According to them, this is what distinguishes the novel coronavirus from other common viruses, which usually wane in hot weather," stressed Nayar.

Not much has been studied in the past and no definite treatment or vaccine is available to date.

"Every day, new properties and manifestation of the disease come up. As of now, the only way to prevent this monster is by taking appropriate precautions. Hand hygiene, social distancing, cough etiquette and face masks definitely reduce spread of COVID-19 infection," Nayar told IANS.

Not just top Indian health experts, even Indian-American scientists had this theory in mind that sunshine and summer may ebb the spread of the coronavirus.

Ravi Godse, Director of Discharge Planning, UPMC Shadyside Pennsylvania in the US told IANS in April: "In the summer, the humidity can go up as well, meaning more water drops in the air. If the air is saturated with water and somebody sneezes virus droplets into such air, it is likely that the droplets will fall to the ground quicker, making them less infectious. So the short answer is yes, summer/sunshine could be bettera.

According to Dr Puneet Khanna, Head of Respiratory Medicine and Pulmonology, Manipal Hospital, Delhi, COVID-19 death rates are not too different in tropical countries but since the disease affected them late it was yet to show its peak in these areas.

"The virus can survive well in hot and humid countries and this is proven now," he stressed.
