Indore, Jun 14: A major accident was averted when a bus driver suffered a massive heart attack when he was driving at a high speed, but he managed to bring the vehicle to halt without causing any injury to the passengers in Khandwa district of Madhya Pradesh on Monday.

arThough the driver lost his life to the cardiac arrest, 29 passengers of the bus had a narrow brush with death.

The incident took place in the afternoon when Rasheed was driving the bus belonging to Arya Travels from Khandwa to Kohdar. As he neared village Chhoti Borgaon, he suffered a heart attack, police said.

Despite the pain, he gained control of the vehicle and brought it to a halt. The bus had left the road and came to a standstill near a tree, they added.

Passengers called emergency services and the police, but Rasheed passed away before help could reach him. His death led to emotional outbursts from passengers, who blamed the police for delay in getting Rasheed to a hospital.

Police have seized the bus and were in the process of recording the death.

Hats off this hero who saved lives of many people on sacrificing his own life. Govt should award compensation to his family and provide a job to his son / daughter. Govt should show humanity on such deserved people.

Mangaluru, Apr 12: A 10-month-old baby who tested COVID-19 positive on March 27 completed treatment and discharged from hospital on Saturday.

He was the youngest positive case in Karnataka, from Sajipanadu village in Bantwal taluk.

The child had been with his mother to a relative's house at Monetepadau village, situated on the Karnataka-Kerala border in the first week of March.

A few days later the child developed an acute respiratory illness and tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.

Treating the breastfeeding child was challenging for doctors as he had to be isolated. A team of doctors from Wenlock Hospital took up this challenge and successfully cured the baby.

Test reports on his mother and grandmother too have returned negative. They too had been under quarantine and were discharged with the baby.

Another positive development was that no COVID-19 case has been reported from the child's village.  

The entire Sajipanadu village was completely sealed after the child tested positive and the district had provided all the necessary supplies to the villagers.

Bengaluru, Mar 2: Karnataka Minister BC Patil on Monday repeated his earlier statements that he will approach the Centre to bring a law to "shoot at sight" anyone who raises anti-India slogans.

"I am not going back on my statement as I have not said anything wrong. I had said that I will ask the central government to bring a law to shoot at sight those who shout slogans against India. Nowadays it has become a fashion for some youths to get popularity this way which spoils the country and patriotism," Patil told reporters here.

"There is nothing wrong in asking for a law. I have not said that I will myself shoot someone who shouts slogans against India. If the same thing happens in Pakistan, they will be beheaded. But we are not so brutal, we book a case and send them to judicial custody," he added.

Patil also said that there was no need for holding discussions over the amended Citizenship Act, but added that the ruling BJP will defend it if the opposition raises a stir in the state Assembly.

The budget session of the Karnataka Assembly began on Monday.
