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.

New Delhi, Jun 6: With the coronavirus pandemic showing no signs of abating, it seems unlikely that Muslims from India will be able to undertake the Hajj pilgrimage this year.

However, the government will take a final decision on the matter only after Saudi Arabia makes its position on hosting the pilgrimage clear.

A circular issued by the Hajj Committee of India on Friday said only a few weeks are left for the preparatory work in India for Hajj 2020, yet the Saudi authorities have not communicated any further development regarding the pilgrimage.

"In view of the several inquiries received and concerns expressed over uncertainty over Hajj 2020, it has been decided by the Hajj Committee of India that, those pilgrims who desire to cancel their Hajj journey this year, their 100 per cent amount paid so far will be refunded without any deductions," the circular issued by Hajj Committee of India CEO Maqsood Ahmed Khan said.

"Coronavirus cases are increasing in Saudi Arabia and two lakh people have to go from here. We had made preparations, but now there is very little time left. We are waiting for an official word from Saudi Arabia," a top source said.

In response to a question, the source said, "This time, it is unlikely that people will be able to undertake Hajj from India."

Uncertainty has been looming large over this year's Hajj in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic and though Saudi Arabia has not made a decision on whether the annual pilgrimage will be held or not, it did ask Muslims to delay their bookings till there is more clarity.

The bilateral annual Hajj 2020 agreement between India and Saudi Arabia was signed last December. In 2020, a total of 2 lakh Indian Muslims were expected to perform Hajj.

Over 95,000 COVID-19 cases and more than 600 deaths have been reported in Saudi Arabia due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to Johns Hopkins University data.

Some countries have decided not to send their people for Hajj this time. The most prominent among these is Indonesia, the country with the largest Muslim population in the world.

The Hajj 2020 is proposed in the period between late July and early August.

The Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam which every Muslim is required to complete at least once in their lifetime if they are healthy enough and have the means to do so.
