Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bharatiya Janata Party supremo Amit shah are likely to address a really each in all three coastal districts of Karnataka as part of saffron party’s campaign for 2018 assembly polls in the state.

The state BJP core committee is learnt to have decided to send a proposal requesting Mr Modi address two to three rallies in each of the seven regions of the state during February-March next year.

Political parties usually divide the state into seven zones: Coastal Karnataka, Hyderabad-Karnataka, Mumbai-Karnataka, Malnad, Central Karnataka, Old Mysuru and Bengaluru.

BJP believes that Mr Modi and Mr Shah can still attract voters in Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada districts that witnessed several communal incidents in recent months.

Mr Shah will pay a day-long visit to Bengaluru on December 31 to review the preparedness of the state unit of the party for the Assembly polls.

Briefing reporters after the core committee meeting of the party on Tuesday, BJP general secretary Aravind Limbavali said Shah, among others, will review a recent initiative of the BJP wherein legislators and MPs are given responsibility not only to look after his or her constituency but one more allotted by the party.

He will also review the progress of the Nava Karnataka Nirmana Parivarthan Yatra which has travelled 170 Assembly constituencies.

Mangaluru, Aug 8: As visuals of the Air India Express flight crash at Kozhikode international airport emerge, one cannot help but be reminded of an eerily similar and unfortunate accident that occurred a decade ago. The August 7, 2020 tragedy brought back memories of the 2010 crash.

It was on May 22, 2010 that an Air India Express Boeing 737-800 flight from Dubai to Mangaluru over shot the runway while landing at Bajpe airport and fell into a cliff. Of the 160 passengers and 6 crew members on board, 158 were killed (all crew members and 152 passengers) and only 8 survived.

Even back then, the plane had split into two. The crash has been termed as one of India's worst aviation disasters.

The final conversations between Air traffic control (ATC) and the pilot prior to the landing showed no indication of any distress.

Like the Mangaluru accident, Karipur crash too happened when the flight was attempting to land.

The captain of the aircraft which crashed at Mangaluru, Z Glucia, was an experienced pilot with 10,000 hours of flying experience and had 19 landings at the Mangalore airport. Co-pilot S S Ahluwalia, with 3,000 hours of flying experience had as many as 66 landings at this airport. Both the pilot and co-pilot were among the victims.

An investigation into the accident later found that the cause of the accident was the captain’s failure to discontinue an ‘unstabilised approach’ and his persistence to continue with the landing, despite three calls from the First Officer to ‘go-around’.

Ballari, Apr 18: Hosapete town in Ballari district of Karnataka gasped in disbelief as it turned out that 11 members of one single family are positive for the coronavirus.

The whole town has been declared a containment zone and is being surveilled 24X7.

The family includes seven members whose tests returned positive today, three who tested Covid-19 positive on March 30 and one other member subsequently.

The seven who tested positive today had been negative when they were earlier tested along with the others.

They have all now been shifted to isolation wards at the District Hospital in Ballari.

Including this family of 11, Ballari has 13 positive cases so far, with one case each reported from Ballari and Siraguppa towns.

Startled by this sudden upsurge from Hosapete, the district administration has set up 16 fever clinics to screen people and six COVID care centres to treat positive cases. There are two dedicated COVID hospitals, one at Ballari and another at Torangallu in Sandur.

A team of psychological counsellors have been put on duty to provide support to the patients at the isolation centres.
