Bengaluru, Oct 19: Nandini M, a city-based software engineer, who prefers to be identified as an “animal rights activist” hit the headlines earlier this week after she was allegedly attacked by a mob under the limits of Talaghattapura police station.

The woman had claimed that she was attacked and her car was damaged by a mob after she lodged a formal complaint with the jurisdictional police against the illegal slaughter of cattle at Avalahalli near Talaghattapura.

According to her, two police constables aslo had accompanied her to the spot but they ran away when the mob attacked her. In her second complaint, she went on to claim that the mob raised pro-Pakistan slogans.

The woman gained popularity overnight thanks to the media and saffron forces that not only glorified her but also seized the opportunity to target the state government for failing to curb illegal cattle slaughter.

However, the police later clarified that there was no connection between the alleged attack on Nandini and her fight against the cattle slaughter.

DCP (south) SD Sharanappa was quoted by the report as saying that the police had immediately acted on the complaint filed by Nandini and stopped the illegal slaughter of cattle. The police arrested three people for allegedly slaughtering cows under the cow protection law and rescued some cattle.

However, without trusting the police, Nandini went the lane to personally inspect whether they acted on her complaint. A few people pelted stones at her car for causing accident. The police have also detained seven persons for allegedly pelting stones.

Narrating the sequence of events Bengaluru police commissioner T Sunil Kumar said that Nandini and her two woman assistants had lodged a complaint about cows being illegally slaughtered at Talaghattapura on October 14.

Kumar said Nandini also visited the spot even though police had asked her not to go there when police raided the abattoir.

The police officer said that Nandini’s car had allegedly dashed against an auto-rickshaw and also a petty shop in the area, which irked the residents. The violence was because of the accident. Some of the miscreants pelted stones at Nandini’s car for her rash driving.

On the other hand the local residents, who witnessed the incident, have rubbished the allegation of raising pro-Pakistan slogans as a blatant lie.

Bengaluru, Jul 2: Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Thursday launched the ICU Telecard, developed by CISCO to address the concerns of doctors treating coronavirus patients.

Wi-Fi networks and Cisco Health platform help to protect the entire medical team dealing with the infected person by ensuring that doctors do not have to be inside isolation wards and COVID ICUs.

The ICU Telecard has been installed at Victoria and KC General hospital.

"This technology is a necessity to safeguard health of our doctors and it should be implemented in all hospitals. We will discuss about this in the task force meeting and decide regarding the use of this technology in all COVID hospitals in the state. For now, we have installed one at Victoria and KC General hospital" said the minister.

Addressing the complaints of non-release of dead bodies without coronavirus testing, Sriramulu said: "Experts have discussed the same in a meeting with the Chief Minister yesterday, who has ordered for an increase in the number of testing labs. This should resolve the issue. We are also contemplating the conduct of plasma therapy in all districts."

The minister said that the government has also decided to reserve two ambulances for every ward to address the issue of non-availability and will procure more ambulances on rent if the existing ones are insufficient.

He further informed that those who were seen dumping the bodies in a pit in Ballari have been suspended and notice has also been served to officials in Yadagiri.

"We will ensure such instances do not repeat in the state," he said.
