Manglauru, Sep 18: Former Union minister B Janardhana Poojary, who had recently advised the Karnataka government to violate the Supreme Court directive in Cauvery case and stop releasing water to Tamil Nadu, on Sunday offered Urulu Seve' at Sri Gokarnanatheshwara Temple, Kudroli here, seeking divine intervention in the century old dispute.

79-year-old Poojary, who is being sidelined by both Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee in recent days over his anti-Siddaramaiah rhetoric, rolled over the temple floor alone. Even though some of the party men and priests were present on the occasion none of them performed the Urulu Seve'.

While announcing his decision to perform the Urulu Seve' in a press meet in the city a couple of days ago, Mr Poojary had invited Karnataka chief minister to join the ritual. However, the latter has not responded to the invitation.

“I have sought divine blessings so that the court order is in favour of Karnataka. I also have prayed for the well-being of people of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Let the court order not create any untoward incidents in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu," Mr Poojary told media persons after performing Urulu Seve'. The apex court is expected to take up the issue on September 20.

"The Supreme Court bench in its interim order has asked Karnataka to release 12,000 cusecs on a daily basis till September 20. We all should pray for a favourable order this time,” he said.

Mr Poojary also called upon the chief minister to personally gather facts related to the Cauvery water row and share the same with the legal experts. "There are sufficient documents to present before the court. Let the chief minister work to collect documents," he added.

God created that river to flow through 4 states, all those live along side it's path have right to use it's water. By blocking that river, we are going against the will of God.

I heard that a doctor had advised him to roll over the floor to maintain his health. He seized the opportunity for this show off. a few days ago he did urulu seve for favourable yettinahole verdict. in a few days he may do the same to get ticket in next lok sabha polls..

Poojary is going to kill traditional 'Pili Yaasa'. I think in next maarnami nobody will do tiger dance. All para pilis will don white cloths like pojary and do urulu seve thinking it will attract more people :p

Mumbai, June 9: A 45-year-old doctor posted in the 108 ambulance service at Malad railway station in Mumbai died of COVID-19 after two hospitals refused admission, in spite of the fact that he was a frontline warrior against coronavirus.

The victim is Dr Shaukat Ali, who was working with the 108 ambulance service for the last four years. A few days ago, he got his blood tests done after his health deteriorated. The result stated typhoid fever following which he started getting treatment at home in Malwani.

Ali's family ran from pillar to post to get him hospitalised in either a private or government hospital, to no avail.

"On Friday, his condition worsened and he started feeling breathless. Despite us calling the 108 ambulance service, no one picked up the call. So after waiting for a while, I and uncle's colleague, Dr Nigam, rushed him to SK Patil hospital in Malad East in an auto. But they refused us stating they were admitting only COVID-19 patients.”

“Then we took him to Desai Hospital, where doctors were initially ready to admit him but later refused stating lack of beds. They said we could take him home as his condition was fine," Zubair Shaikh, Ali's nephew said.

"But his condition worsened. So, I called Dr Nigam and we managed to admit him in Shatabdi hospital. On Sunday, when his results came out stating that he had COVID-19, doctors had already put him on a ventilator, where he passed away in the evening," he added.

Zubair further said, "Had the doctors at Desai Memorial Hospital admitted him, my uncle would have been alive today. It is a matter of great regret that a doctor, who was risking his life during this pandemic, could not get help from his own government hospitals."

Ali's wife and his two children's are in UP, while he was staying with his elder daughter who had recently appeared for HSC exams and preparing for NEET.

My condolence to him and his family. Please don't divide Hindu and Muslims in such way, not only Muslims but Hindu also died due to such reasons and one more thing here in Maharashtra, BJP is not ruling party. Thanks..
