Mysuru, Jan 19: Taking a swipe at the Bharatiya Janata Party, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has said that it’s unethical to misuse religion for political gains.

Speaking at the valedictory function of the Suttur Jathra Mahotsava, CM said that a political party in India is expert in misusing religion for political gains and fooling people

He said the Congress government would not allow any party to divide society on caste and community lines, and would curb forces trying to create enmity and unrest among people.

He urged people to be weary of divisive forces and said it was inhuman to divide society for “political benefits”.

He also said he had lived up to the expectations of the public and fulfilled the promises made in the 2013 poll manifesto. Listing his government’s achievements, he said they had distributed over 1.8 lakh laptops to students who had passed PU, irrespective of caste.

Stop your political publicity stunt mr. siddu. You are using religion and faith for your votes. You used Tipu matter to get Muslim votes and support.

Actually both BJP and Congress wont do anything that completely harm rival party. They are in good relation in background. Only poor brainless workers being scapegoats for them. In front of public they will oppose each other and and blame each other

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Action will be taken against private hospitals that were violating government norms and charging exorbitant fees charges for the treatment of Covid-19 patients and suspects, said Water Resources Minister Ramesh Jarkiholi.

The government has taken action against private hospitals in Bengaluru and the same parameters would be adopted other cities, he said speaking to media persons in Belagavi on Friday.

Jarkiholi said that the government had noticed that patients were levied exorbitant charges for Covid-19 treatment. People too have complaints regarding the huge bills by these private hospitals and have demanded action.

“We are not under the obligation of any private hospital and stringent action will be taken against all erring and violating government tariffs. They will have to treat patients and follow the tariffs fixed,” he stated.

Belagavi Institute of Medical Sciences District Hospital had been directed to install CCTV cameras in Covid-19 wards and install monitors at reception to facilitate monitoring of treatment and condition of the wards. BIMS management was taken to task for not following the directive and have been given a deadline to install CCTV cameras, Jarkiholi informed.
