Mangaluru, Jun 3: Mangaluru MLA and former minister U T Khader has urged the state government and Dakshina Kannada district administration to take steps to facilitate the return of Indians stranded in foreign countries amid covid lockdown.
A delegation comprising Mr Khader, DCC President K Harish Kumar, and MLC Ivan D’Souza met District In-charge Minister Kota Srinivas Poojary and submitted a memorandum on Tuesday.
“Kannadigas who are working outside the state are in distress due to the lockdown. More than 50,000 people had uploaded applications on Seva Sindhu portal seeking permission to return to their villagers and are waiting for permission. With the authorities failing to take any decision, they are worried,” said the delegation.
The government should initiate measures to get them back and quarantine them, urged the delegation.
Mr Khader said, “Many workers stranded in foreign countries are eager to return home. The district administration should make arrangements to quarantine those returning from foreign countries and other states.
There are thousands of migrant labourers from Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand and Bihar stranded in DK. They are waiting to return to their families. The state government should facilitate their return journey, the delegation urged.
MLC Ivan D’Souza said, “Assistance should be provided to private bus staff, beedi workers, tailors, garage labourers and street vendors who are in distress. The price of Covid-19 tests in private laboratories should be reduced.”
The delegation informed that after Wenlock Hospital was converted into the designated COVID-19 hospital, poor patients are facing many inconveniences. A portion of the hospital should be earmarked for treating other patients, they said.

ALL MURDERERS ARE FROM SANGHPARIVAR. THERE IS NO DOUBT AT ALL...
Like Batwoman (Burkha woman) :-P
LOL.. why that mask. It remembers me some Burkha women standing in programme photos. They will do the same. They will pose for photos but nobody can see those women's face except two eyes (some people used cover nose bridge also :-D)
What is the main reason of covering the faces of guilty, which reveals police are favouring such murderers. Police not only arresting, they should disclose their identity, such as which group they belongs and the intension of their killing, on whose behest they killed etc.
Police should post murderers picture with open faces as to know if they can be recognised by people for some other cases. It will help Police also as these culprits might be doing some other unsocial activities like dealing in drugs / supplying prostitutes etc. as such people do this kind of unsocial activities for money.
this is sangaparwar policy to cover thier dirty face to public ....
