The victim, Mohammed Sadan, was one of the seven family members on board the ill-fated boat that sank due to some technical snag.

Even though the lifeguards helped the six others to reach ashore safe, they failed to rescue the little boy. His parents Shami Ilahi and Fathima, residents of Natekal near Deralakatte were among the rescued.

Shami Ilahi, an NRI, who had recently come to Indian on a vacation, took his family members to the beach on Wednesday evening. The family decided to enjoy a boat ride before returning home.

All of them were given life jackets before boarding the boat. As there was no small size life jacket, the little boy also was given adults' life jacket. When the boat sank the child slipped from his parents' hands. As soon as he fell into the sea, the life jacket also slipped from his body.

Negligence by lifeguards?

The family members and beach goers held lifeguards responsible for the tragedy. Had the lifeguards started rescue operation without delay the boy could have been saved, said Haneef, one of the family members. The boy's body washed ashore after several hours of search by coastal security police and lifeguards.

Bengaluru,  Aug 4: Karnataka has seen a substantial increase in COVID-19 recovery rate, which was 5.67 per cent in the last week, state Medical Education Minister Dr. K Sudhakar said.

"Every day there is an increase in recovery rate which is higher by 9.17 per cent in Bengaluru city. The overall recovery rate of the state by Sunday evening was 42.81 per cent and it is 35.14 per cent in Bengaluru," the Minister wrote in a tweet.

Minister Sudhakar also directed officials to resolve the issue raised by a woman who had written to him about her struggle to take possession of the body of her father in St. Johns hospital, Madivala.

The hospital she claimed was charging money to hand over the body.

"It is inhuman on part of the hospital to refuse handover of the body. I came to know about this incident in the media and responded immediately to help out the woman," Dr. Sudhakar wrote in his tweet.

Karnataka has so far reported 74,598 active COVID-19 cases, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

Mysuru, Jan 28: The Second Additional District and Sessions Court on Monday granted anticipatory bail to B Nalini, who displayed the ‘Free Kashmir’ placard during a protest, and also to Maridevaiah, the organiser of the protest.

Nalini and Maridevaiah had applied for bail as Jayalakshmipuram police had booked them under sedition charges. Nalini had displayed the placard during a protest at Manasagangotri, the University of Mysore campus, recently. The court, which took up the case on January 24, had kept the order pending.

The court directed the accused to submit their passport to the court and a bond for a sum of Rs 50,000. The court also directed them to be present before the police, whenever needed.

Meanwhile, the Mysuru Bar Association has decided to take measures against the association members who are in favour of Nalini. Seventy-five members, seeking to represent Nalini, have withdrawn their support, the association secretary B Shivanna said. The association has suspended advocates Manjula Manasa and P P Baburaj.
