The police said that Joylin Monis was riding pillion on a scooter driven by her younger sister Jacqueline Monis, a second year B. Com student in a city college.

The two were going down from Nantoor Circle towards Shivabagh Circle in violation of the temporary no entry' arrangement made by the traffic police to facilitate concreting of the road.

The road is open for vehicles from Shivabagh to Nantoor Junction while vehicles on the reverse direction have to take a detour either via Pumpwell Circle or KPT Cricle.

As the two came down the slope, a city bus came from the Shivabagh Circle and brushed the scooter around 9 a.m. While Jacqueline fell on the left side of the vehicle, Joylin fell on the right side directly coming under the rear wheels of the bus. Though Joyline was wearing a helmet, she died on the spot. Jacqueline has been admitted to a private hospital with minor injury.

The police said the city bus was owned by S.M. Travels. The driver of the bus abandoned the vehicle and escaped soon after the accident, the police said.

Joylin and Jacqueline Monis are daughters of John Monis, who is the editor of Dirvem, a Konkani monthly magazine. They were staying near Kulashekar Church. Joylin was a lecturer of commerce with St. Agnes College while Jacqueline is a student of St. Aloysius College.

Nobody like rulers, bureaucrat or any citizen is bothered or cares such accident specially in Mangalore.

Human lives have no value specially for 2wheelers.

We are talking many projects in our area.
This is daily disaster. If we wish we can prevent such accidents with some good planning.

Such accidents are not UNPREVENTABLE.

If we want to allow our people to use 2wheelers, first we should plant to prevent and how to escape from these accidents.

Otherwise we all should by law or by force avoid using such vehicles.

At least our leaders in the city like DC, SP, RTO, MP, MLAs, Ministers, all those who use 2wheeler, please wake up and do the doable thing to save our people's lives.

Bengaluru, Jul 9: Alarmed over surging COVID-19 cases, the Karnataka government has decided to divide this tech city into containment zones to curb the spread of the pandemic, a state minister said on Thursday.

"The city will be divided into red, orange and yellow zones in commensurate with the number of Covid cases in them for containing the virus spread on war footing," Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister J.C. Madhuswamy told reporters here.

Cabinet ministers representing assembly segments in the city will be in-charge of the zones to ensure the cases are curbed with strict enforcement of lockdown guidelines, especially wearing mask and maintaining social distancing by the people in the confinement areas.

"Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has convened a meeting of ministers, MLAs, MPs and corporators of all the 198 civic wards across the city on Friday to discuss and draw an action plan to contain the pandemic," said Madhuswamy.

With 1,148 positive cases, the city''s Covid tally rose to 12,509 and active to 10,103, while 2,228 were discharged, including 418 on Wednesday, while 177 succumbed to the infection since March 9, with 23 in the last 24 hours.

"The Chief Minister ordered deploying more ambulances in the containment areas where cases have been spiking daily to rush Covid patients to the nearest hospital for immediate treatment," said Madhuswamy.

The city civic corporation -- Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) --has increased the containment zones to 3,181 due to more cases spiking, with southern and western suburbs accounting for most infections.

"The containment zones are concentrated more in the city''s southern and western suburbs. Active cases doubled over the last 8 days and shot up to a whopping 12,509 from 4,555 on June 30," an official said.

Refuting graft charges by opposition Congress leader Siddaramaiah in the purchase of medical equipment for treatment of Covid patients, Madhuswamy said the state government had not spent more than Rs 600 crore so far.

"We are running a government. Not a private office. We will give account. He (Siddaramaiah) is welcome to check the accounts and verify the documents," asserted the minister.

In a related development, the cabinet also approved an ordinance to increase the state contingency fund to Rs 500 crore from Rs 80 crore for the Covid-19 induced economic relief measures announced by the chief minister in June.

Udupi, Feb 8: A rare sixth century granite idol of ‘Lajja Gauri’ has been discovered fixed on the road in Barkur village of Udupi district, according to information furnished by Dr. Shivakant Bajpai, Superintending Archaeologist of ASI Bangalore Circle. Lajja Gauri is depicted in nude form and is said to be a fertility symbol. The idol is rare, though very popular among certain cults.

Dr Shivakant Bajpai, who is on a tour of the coastal districts, said that he first came across the image when it went viral on social media. He subsequently traced it to a public road in Barkur, which is an ancient historical town of coastal Karnataka. It was the ancient capital of the Alupa kingdom and a seat of power for several centuries.

“This is a very important idol and hundreds of vehicles pass over it every day. We are rescuing it and I have issued an order to my local in-charge to keep it in safe custody. I have also sent a mail in this regard to the DC and SP of the district,” he said.

The idol is likely to be of 6th or 7th century, though further study is required to confirm a date, Dr. Bajpai said.

Lajja Gauri is a lotus-headed Hindu deity associated with abundance, fertility and sexuality, sometimes euphemistically described as Lajja ("modesty").
