BJP mocks CM, ‘confers best actor’ award on him

Bengaluru, Jul 16: A day after his tearful address to his partymen, the BJP mocked Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy on Sunday, by terming him as the “best actor” giving a “brilliant performance”.

Posting a video clip showing Kumaraswamy weeping at a JD(S) party event on Saturday, BJP Karnataka tweeted, “& the best acting award goes to.. (Kumaraswamy). Our country has produced talented actors. Actors who have mesmerised the audience with their brilliant performance. Here we have another legendary actor Mr Kumaraswamy, an actor who has constantly fooled common man with his amazing acting skills.”

BJP leader and Union Minister of Statistics and Programme Implementation D V Sadananda Gowda expressed doubts over Kumaraswamy’s intentions of visiting Kodagu.

Speaking to reporters a day after Kumaraswamy said that he would spend two days in the rain-ravaged district, Gowda said, “I am not sure if the chief minister will be making a jolly trip to Kodagu by visiting resorts or if he will seriously address the problems of the district. It’s not right on his part to play favourites or restrict himself to certain regions or communities.”

Referring to a video of class 8 boy Kalera Fateh, taking a dig at him for “neglecting” Kodagu district in his budget, a visibly agitated Kumaraswamy had claimed that he was being unnecessarily targeted (by the opposition and the media).

He had also aired suspicions about the BJP being behind the video which has gone viral.

Gowda said Kumaraswamy was free to get the entire matter investigated.

He also took jibes at Kumaraswamy for repeatedly breaking down in public fora.

Noting that Kodagu was not only one of the major tourist attractions in the state, it was also the major source of water to southern Karnataka, the BJP leader said Kumaraswamy should have allocated at least Rs 100 crore to Kodagu in his budget.

Gowda said as chief minister, he and B S Yeddyurappa had set aside Rs 50 crore and Rs 100 crore, respectively, for the development of the district.

Bengaluru, Jun 16: Continuing easing of restrictions under 'unlock-1,' the Karnataka government has allowed shooting and production of films and television programmes in the state.

In a clarification, Principal Secretary Revenue N Manjunath Prasad said, shooting and production of all films and television programmes that were stopped in between due to lockdown can be allowed.

It is also allowed to continue with the post-production activities of film and television programmes after completing the shooting, it said.

The permission is conditional as it is subjected to adhering of the national directives issued in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, and standard operating procedures prescribed by the Department of Information and Public Relations.

The clarification said permission can be given as film and television shooting and production activities are not banned under guidelines issued by the centre and the state government recently.

Mangaluru, Jul 15: Amidst mounting coronavirus cases, the district administration has finalised 80 covid care centres (CCC) in Dakshina Kannada.

Sindhu B Rupesh, deputy commissioner of DK, said that as many as 80 premises that were functioning as quarantine centres have now been identified as CCCs in the district.

People in the district have been demanding that CCCs should be opened for asymptomatic cases in the district too. 

A majority of around 1,500 active cases in Dakshina Kannada are asymptomatic, and the CCCs will help those planning to go to private hospitals to reduce their treatment costs.

Additional deputy commissioner M J Roopa said that the 80 CCCs identified throughout the district will work as care centres for asymptomatic Covid-19 patients.

A medical team will attend to the centres, and supply of food and water will be taken care of by the government. In case of any health issues, the patient will be shifted to the Covid hospital, she said.

“All asymptotic Covid-19 patients, who are unable to opt for home isolation, are being kept in CCCs. A designated health team will monitor each CCC in the district. Meanwhile, the nearest public health centre (PHC) will have an ambulance on standby in case of an emergency,” she added.
