Bengaluru, Nov 2: Thousands of vehicles were stranded on Tumakuru Road due to the BJP’s ‘Nava Karnataka Parivarthana Yatra” whic began from BIEC at Madavara here on Thursday.

Two ambulances were stuck for over half an hour in the jam, even as the city traffic police were struggling hard to manage the traffic on the busy Tumakuru-Nelamangala highway.

Ironically, BJP’s national president Amit Shah also experienced the affects of the traffic jam first-hand. He waited for over an hour at the HAL Airport for the convoy to ferry him to the venue. However, the convoy was stuck in the traffic jam.

Eventually, Mr. Shah had to take a helicopter to reach the venue to flag off the bike rally that was organised as part of the programme.

Over three lakh bikers are expected to take part in the rally. A huge group of bikers from Mysuru were led by MP Pratap Simha, while another rally is being led by C.P. Yogeshwar from Channapatna.

During 75-day long Yatra, BJP’s top leaders, including State president B.S. Yeddyurappa, would tour all the 224 Assembly constituencies. Party leaders are scheduled to visit three Assembly constituencies every day and hold public meetings in each of them.

Bengaluru, Apr 1: Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday said that 200 people, out of 342 from the state who had attended the religious gathering at Markaz building in Delhi's Nizamuddin area, have been quarantined.

"200 people including four from Bengaluru and five from Belgaum, who participated in Tablighi Jamaat (in Delhi's Nizamuddin), have been quarantined. Total 342 people from Karnataka had attended the event," Sriramulu told reporters here.

The gatherings organised by the Tablighi Jamaat at the Markaz building in Nizamuddin came into the spotlight after multiple coronavirus cases were confirmed amongst those who attended the event held in March.
Twenty-four cases were reported from the national capital alone, apart from Telangana, the union territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands amongst others.

The minister had earlier said that Bengaluru Urban and Mysuru have been identified among the prime 25 COVID-19 hotspots in the country.
Chikkaballapur, since the last fourteen days, has been emerging as another hotspot, according to Sriramulu.

The total number of coronavirus cases in India has risen to 1,637 after 240 new cases were reported in the country, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, on Wednesday.

The total number of active cases rose to 1466 in the country, while 132 people have been cured and discharged after receiving treatment, as of 9 am.
