Udupi, Jul 26: Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt has warned that separation of Veerashaiva-Lingayat community from the Hindu dharma will be a loss for both Hindus and Lingayats.Pejawar seer

“State government has not submitted any proposal to the Union government on the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community becoming a religion. There was only discussion going on this matter. If there is division in the Hindu community, it will be a loss for both,” the seer told media persons here.

He also said that he had given his suggestion that the Lingayats should not get divided and leave the fold of Hindu community, because of his affection for the former.

“I do not want any division within the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community or in the Hindu community,” he said.

Another reason for giving the suggestion was because of the trust and cordial relations he had with the seers of the Veerashaiva-Lingayat community. “Nobody should misunderstand my suggestion,” he said.

Bengaluru, May 27: A yet incomplete state-wide survey has revealed that there are over 53.99 lakh households vulnerable to the infection in Karnataka. The survey is being conducted by the government to find COVID-19 vulnerable population particularly with comorbidities and cases like SARI and ILI.

The survey, which is 67.16% complete so far, finds 1.37 lakh households across Karnataka have people with comorbid conditions, excluding a further 13,341 households with symptoms of Influenza Like Illness (ILI), Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI) and Covid-19.

Over 48 lakh households have senior citizens, who on account of their age are at highest risk of death from the disease.

Munish Moudgil, Director of the State COVID War Room, clarified that households could have multiple types of vulnerable people. According to the survey data (which is dated May 26), Kalaburagi and Bengaluru Urban have the highest cases of SARI, ILI with 1,902 households and 1,703 households respectively, although these numbers are likely to rise, as the survey is still incomplete in these districts. 

A BBMP source said that 68% of the survey has been completed in the city, but the data has not been logged yet. The number of SARI/ILI cases is next highest in Shivamogga with 1,217 households, Mysuru with 1,200 and Davangere with 1,178.

The government regards SARI and ILI as indicators of coronavirus and on April 17, had passed an order instructing healthcare workers to test people with these conditions for the coronavirus. Consequently, 51 COVID-19 cases were discovered by testing people with these symptoms.

Belagavi, meantime, has reported the highest incidents of households with comorbid conditions with 12,427 identified so far, followed by Mandya with 9,289, Kalaburagi with 8,311, Shivamogga with 8,140 and Bengaluru Urban with 7,562.
