Mangaluru/Udupi, Mar 5: After BJP supremo Amit Shah’s visit to coastal Karnataka, the party leaders have intensified their Hindutva campaign in the region. The party’s Karnataka Suraksha Yatra, which entered Dakshina Kannada districton Sunday, has further energised the saffronists to up ante against the state government by portraying it as an anti-Hindu regime.

On Sunday rallies and public meetings were held in Sullia and Puttur, two sensitive areas of the coastal district as part of the state-wide Yatra entered.  The yatra started from Kushalnagar in Kodagu district on Saturday. It will reach B.C. Roadon Monday via Kalladka.

Addressing the rallies in Sullia and Puttur, Nalin Kumar Kateel, Member of Parliament, alleged that Hindus have no security under the Congress-led government in the State as it has failed to control the killings of Hindu youths.

He alleged that the State government has failed to control drug mafia, sand mafia and land mafia.

Pratap Simha, MP, Mysuru said that the yatra is being taken out for the protection of the life of Hindus.

He said that 23 Hindu activists have been murdered in the State under the Congress rule. Mr. Simha took objection to the government withdrawing criminal cases filed against the workers of the KFD.

Sanjeeva Matandoor, president, Dakshina Kannada unit of the BJP, and other leaders of the party were present.

Meanwhile, the yatra which began from Ankola on March 3 would enter Udupi district on Monday. Padayatra and public functions would be conducted in Byndoor, Kundapura and Udupi.

The yatra from both the sides would culminate in Nehru Maidan here on March 6. En route from Udupi to Mangaluru on Tuesday, the yatra would halt in Kaup and Mulki.

Bengaluru, Mar 19: To better enforce social distancing and prevent further spread of Covid-19, the Karnataka health and family welfare department on Wednesday said it will "stamp the back of the palm" of international passengers advised to be on home quarantine, along with the date they are allowed to get out of home. The stamping process began at 12am Thursday.

Pankaj Kumar Pandey, commissioner, health and family welfare, said: "It is noted that a few passengers under home quarantine are not following the instructions. Therefore, it has been decided to stamp the back of the palm of their left hand with a specially designed stamp which will indicate the last day of quarantine."

He said the special stamp will use an indelible ink and "airports in Karnataka have been instructed to follow this without fail". On average, about 3,000 people are arriving in Bengaluru on international flights every day.

The department said social distancing is the only known method of combating the spread of Covid-19 and added, "International passengers are segregated as symptomatic and asymptomatic."

High-risk flyers kept at mass quarantine unit

The symptomatic passengers (Group-A) are taken to designated hospitals; asymptomatic ones, depending on the port of origin, are taken to the quarantine centre or permitted to go on home quarantine.

At the mass quarantine centre, the asymptomatic passengers are divided into moderate-risk (Group-B) and high-risk (Group-C) categories.

“The high-risk passengers are kept at a mass quarantine centre for medical observation. The moderate-risk passengers are being sent for home quarantine where they need to spend 14 days,” the statement added.

Pandey said: “International passengers changing flights within the country cannot be stopped. Ideally, they should be stamped at the first port of entry when they arrive from a foreign country which is not happening.” He said this issue will be brought to the notice of the Directorate-General of Civil Aviation.

Bengaluru, Feb 14: BJP leader and Karnataka Revenue Minister R Ashok refused to comment on the Bellary car accident case, allegedly involving his son, saying that the matter was still under investigation and that they did not have anything to do with the said car.

The car crash took place on February 10, when a speeding red Mercedes Benz allegedly driven by Ashok's son rammed into a tea stall by the roadside killing two people. While a 16-year-old boy Ravi died on the spot, one of the car's passengers was also killed in the accident.

"I came to know about the incident and also heard that two people have died and a few others have sustained injuries. Everybody is equal under the law. It is not fair to comment as a minister when the case is being investigated," Ashok told reporters here on Thursday.

However, the minister avoided answering questions about his son's presence in the car and said that they had "no connection" with the car.

"The case is in the investigation stage, I don't want to comment on anything. My son's name is not present in the FIR. We have no connection with the car," he said.

Superintendent of Police CK Baba told reporters that Ashok's son was not present in the car.

"There was no senior BJP leader and Revenue Ministers's son in the car. We will not hide anything and the case will be investigated," Baba said.
