Bengaluru, Mar 26: It was a miraculous escape for the family of Sadiq Pasha, a businessman, who woke up in the wee hours of Friday to find his house on fire. He woke up his family members, who rushed out of the house.

fireThis is the second such incident in two days. On Wednesday, three two-wheelers parked in front of his house at Balaji Layout in MICO Layout were set on fire. Mr. Pasha had filed a complaint in this regard.

The MICO Layout police said that some persons poured kerosene on the main door and set the house on fire. The police accompanied the fire tenders to the spot. It is said that furniture and household articles were gutted.

According to Mr. Pasha's neighbours, the fire was the handiwork of a few unruly youths in the area'. They said that the youths would sit in front of Mr. Pasha's house, consume alcohol and create a ruckus. Mr. Pasha had complained about the same.

On Friday, anxious neighbours demanded strict action against the perpetrators.

Yasmen Khanum, wife of Sadiq Pasha, said, their problems started a few months ago when her daughter, who is pursuing her II pre university, started getting prank calls and messages on her mobile.

“We also noticed a group of eve-teasers loitering around the house and passing comments about her. She informed my husband, who not only chased the boys away but also complained to the police. It appears that the boys are taking revenge. First, they set fire to three vehicles parked in front of our house on the night of March 21. Now, they have the audacity to set fire to the house. My daughter, who is appearing for her exams, is scared. They have ruined our lives. Where should we go? The police are doing little to help us out.”

The MICO Layout police are examining CCTV footage from in and around the area to identify the culprits. They have taken a few youths into custody for questioning.

Bengaluru, Apr 10: Renowned ophthalmologist and Narayana Nethralaya Chairman Dr K Bhujang Shetty today advised those wearing contact lenses to switch to eyeglasses as a preventive measure.

“Though the facial mask is mandatory as a preventive measure against the dreaded Coronavirus, not many know that the virus can also enter the body through eyes. Wearing glasses or spectacles reduces the spread of the virus,” Dr Bhujang Shetty said.

Although it is more likely that people may catch Coronavirus infections through mouth and nose, there are chances of the virus also entering through eyes. “In a day, humans tend to touch their face and eyes almost 20 times an hour knowingly or unknowingly. Users of contact lenses end up touching their eyes and face frequently, increasing the risk of infections. Therefore, it is advisable that they switch to eyeglasses until the situation improves”, according to a release here on Friday.

Mangaluru, May 4: Bunder Shramika Sangha (BSS) general secretary B K Imthiyaz on Monday urged the district administration to restart Bengre ferry and passenger boat services as it has affected the wholesale market in Old Port.

A majority of the labourers engaged in loading and unloading at the wholesale market in Old Bunder hail from Bengre area. Without the ferry service, the labourers cannot come to work, said Imthiyaz.

He said no positive cases had been reported from Bengre area. Thus, the district administration should give permission for operating ferry services between 7 am and 12 noon.

Kasaragod, Feb 17: A Kerala Muslim couple conducted the wedding of their Hindu foster daughter at a Bhagavathi temple in Kerala, scripting another tale of communal harmony at Kasaragod.

The wedding ceremony was held on Sunday.

The woman Rajeshwari tied the knot with Vishnu Prasad in the presence of family and friends belonging to both Hindu and Muslim communities.

Abdulla and Khadeeja adopted Rajeshwari after her father who worked at Abdulla's farm died. Rajeshwari's mother also passed away when she was a child.

Rajeshwari grew up alongside Abdulla and Khadeeja's three sons- Shameem, Najeeb and Shereef.

Earlier in January this year, cutting across the lines of religion, a mosque in Kerala's Kayamkulam hosted a Hindu marriage ceremony.
