Mangaluru, Sep 10: A small group of activists of Campus Front of India (CFI), who visited the Mangaluru Rural Police Station on Saturday morning to submit a memorandum urging the cops to drop “false cases” slapped against a few college student, were greeted with lathis.

The development comes almost two weeks after a CFI-led protest forced the Srinivas College of Pharmacy, located at Valacchil on the outskirts of the city to withdraw its decision to ban hijab for new batch of students.

At least five persons were hospitalized after the unexpected laticharge on the premises of the police station. College students Hifaz and Muzammil, who suffered injuries during lathicharge were taken to Government Wenlcok Hospital. On the other hand, Sub Inspector Sudhakar and two constables-Chandra Shekhar and Vincent-also got admitted to the hospital, claiming that they were attacked by the CFI activists.

Led by CFI Dakshina Kannada district president Mohammed Athaullah, around 15 activists had been to the police station along with a copy of memorandum.

“We neither staged a protest nor raised slogans. Our intention was just to handover a memorandum to the police requesting them to drop the false ragging case' registered against a few students,” said one of the CFI activists, adding that the complainants have also admitted that their principal had forced them to do so.

He claimed that the authorities of Srinivas College of Pharmacy took revenge against the CFI activists for protesting hajab ban two weeks ago. “In fact all students of the college are united. However, recently the principal forced a few first year Bachelor of Pharmacy students to lodge ragging complaint against their seniors who had taken part in the last protest,” he said.

“Those who are facing ragging charge are innocent students. Being a student organisation, CFI raised its voice for them and will continue to do so,” he said, and added that the attempt to curb the students' movement will not succeed.

Mohan ABVP rightly said .... ABVP will not tolerate if anyone attacks Police. Because Police men are wearing also Khaki chaddi inside. Police also belongs to them (RSS).

Yes you are right. Commissioner told the normal people to raise the voice whenever there is injustice. CFI students raised their voice against injustice but police are not even ready to take the memorandum So commissioner has to f

Why the police version is not mentioned in the report? I request CD reporter to be impartial and add the version of police too. one sided story we dont want. We know very well who these guys are.

Three policemen were attacked by CFI terrorists. What the hell other policemen were doing? Why cant they use their guns to finish those who attack policemen?

Dont blame our college for no reason. This case has no link with hijab ban issue. Actually there was no need for a protest two weeks ago. College was ready to withdraw hijab ban if the parents of the students collectively wanted it. CFI just tried to get political milage by staging a protest. And now they are supporting ragging accused. what a shame!

I dont think anyone will lodge false ragging complaint. Something they might have done in the past. the college used the opportunity. CFI wanted to become hero and turned zero.

Very sad. What was the need for the police to cane the CFI activists? They could have accepted the memorandum and throw it into dust bin if the demand was not genuine. Unfortunately this happened within a day after leaders of different community came together for a better mangaluru.

The United States of America has bought almost the entire world's supply of remdesivir, one of just two drugs proven to treat COVID-19. 

“President Trump has struck an amazing deal to ensure Americans have access to the first authorised therapeutic for Covid-19,” said the US health and human services secretary, Alex Azar. 

“To the extent possible, we want to ensure that any American patient who needs remdesivir can get it. The Trump administration is doing everything in our power to learn more about life-saving therapeutics for Covid-19 and secure access to these options for the American people.”

The announcement implies that no other country in the world will be able to buy remdesivir for next three months at least.

The anti-viral drug patented by the US-based Gilead biotech firm is the only one approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to treat patients with the novel coronavirus.

The Trump administration has already shown that it is prepared to outbid and outmanoeuvre all other countries to secure the medical supplies it needs for the US.

“They’ve got access to most of the drug supply [of remdesivir], so there’s nothing for Europe,” said Dr Andrew Hill, senior visiting research fellow at Liverpool University.

Remdesivir, the first drug approved by licensing authorities in the US to treat Covid-19, is made by Gilead and has been shown to help people recover faster from the disease. 

The first 140,000 doses, supplied to drug trials around the world, have been used up. The Trump administration has now bought more than 500,000 doses, which is all of Gilead’s production for July and 90% of August and September.

Feb 26: The Tamil Nadu government on Tuesday claimed that it prevented Karnataka from discussing the contentious Mekedatu reservoir issue at the Cauvery Water Management Authority (CWMA) meeting held in New Delhi.

Besides the representatives of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka at the fifth meeting of CWMA, presided over by Central Water Commission Chairman R K Jain, officials of Kerala and Puducherry also participated.

CWMA member and TN PWD Secretary K Manivasan told reporters after the meeting that the state government prevented Karnataka from discussing the dam issue by pointing out the pending petitions in the Supreme Court against the project filed by the E Palaniswami government.

"We have told participants of the meeting that Mekedatu reservoir will be against the interests of Tamil Nadu and its farmers. Our consistent stand is that it should not be built at any cost. Finally the issue was not discussed in the meeting," Manivasan said.

The Mekedatu reservoir is proposed to be constructed by Karnataka across Cauvery river near Mekedatu, about 110 km from Bengaluru, in Kanakapura taluk.

It was first proposed along with Shivanasamudra hydro power project at Shimsa in 2003 with an intention to use the water for a hydro power station and supply drinking water to Bengaluru city. It was designed to store 67 tmc feet of water.

While Tamil Nadu is claiming that the construction of a balancing reservoir will disturb Cauvery water flow to the state affecting irrigation, Karnataka says the project is basically designed to take care of the drinking water needs of Bengaluru after releasing water to Tamil Nadu as per the quantum specified by the Cauvery water disputes tribunal.
