Those who shamed party in past may miss BJP ticket now

Bengaluru, Jan 25: The BJP central leadership, virtually taking over the state unit ahead of the Assembly polls, has made several leaders, especially those who have embarrassed the party in the past, jittery.

These leaders, including several legislators, apprehend that they may not be able to secure the ticket to contest the polls, if the process is controlled by the central leadership. At the same time, a section of leaders, who feel that they can win due to their personal clout, are resisting the direction of the central leaders to strengthen the party at the grassroot.

They are of the view that they know how to emerge victorious in the elections on their own without taking up the tasks set by central leadership such as constituting booth committees. Their fear is that they might lose their hold over the constituencies if the booth-level committees are strengthened.

When in power, the BJP had to face embarrassment several times due to its own legislators. As many as 11 MLAs rebelled against the then chief minister B S Yeddyurappa.

They were disqualified and later reinstated on the direction of the Supreme Court. They include Balachandra Jarkiholi, Beluru Gopalakrishna, Anand Asnotikar, Sarvabhauma Bagali, V Nagaraju, Raju Kage, Y Sampangi, Nanjundaswamy, S K Bellubbi, H S Shankaralinge Gowda and Shivanagouda Naik.

Except Shankaralinge Gowda, who passed away, and Asnotikar, who quit the party, the remaining are still in the party and are ticket aspirants. Then there are those leaders who put the party in a spot by finding themselves in awkward situation - Hartal Halappa (rape charges), M P Renukacharya and S A Ramdas (both were accused by women of exploiting them), Lakshman Savadi, C C Patil (caught watching porn in Assembly on a phone belonging to another leader Krishna Palemar).

Again, all are aspiring for the ticket. The central leadership has made it clear that tickets will be issued after three rounds of survey, extensive consultation with local functionaries and the RSS. The apprehension is that those who embarrassed the party in the past may not make it to the final list. The feeling is that these leaders could stand a chance if the process is handed over to the state unit. However, the sources said the central leadership will have a final say.

The vice-like grip of the central leadership over the state unit has also disgruntled some leaders. Vijayanagara (Hosapete) MLA B Anand Singh, who has distanced himself from the party, is a case in point. Singh kept away from the Navakarnataka Nirmana Parivarthana Yatra. He was issued a notice for participating in Tipu Jayanti. He is now planning to join the Congress.

Bengaluru, Aug 2: Bengaluru based Centre for Advanced Research and Development (CARD), the research wing of organisation De scalene has come up with a device called "SHYCOCAN" (Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon) which neutralizes the coronavirus.

Speaking to news agency Dr Rajah Vijay Kumar, Chairman, Organisation De Scalene said that the device will not kill any bacteria or fungus, however, neutralizes the coronavirus particles.

"The device was tested for its safety and efficacy and is soon going to be manufactured and marketed in the US under the Enforcement Discretion policy of USFDA and in Europe as the device is CE compliant and is CE marked," said Kumar.

He also added the device will cover a volume of 10,000 cubic feet.

The device Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon (SHYCOCAN) is intended to be used in the residential, industrial and commercial environment and is designed for active containment by attenuation of Corona family of viruses. (Laboratories de Especialidades Immunological S.A. de C.V, Virucidal Activity concludes 99.9 per cent virus elimination), Kumar asserted.

"SHYCOCAN operates on regular 110/240V - 50/60 Hz wall socket and is a plug and play device, that delivers the necessary signals to a photon mediated electrons emitters (PMEE), that produces hypercharge high-velocity electrons by photon mediation that interacts with the negative seeking S-protein of Corona family of viruses thus reducing infectivity and prevent air and surface borne transmission of corona family of viruses," said Kumar.

The device does not use any chemicals, or any other consumables and does not produce harmful ozone gas or any other substances and is completely safe for use in any environment, he added.

"The attack mechanism of the Virus starts with the initial attachment of the virion to the host cell, it is initiated by interactions between the S-protein and its receptor on the "negative" cell membrane. The sites of receptor binding domains (RBD) within the S1 region of a coronavirus S-protein vary depending on the virus. 

The S-protein/receptor interaction is the primary determinant for a coronavirus to infect a host species and governs the tissue tropism of the virus. However, the end result is the fusion and release of the viral genome into the cytoplasm," said Kumar.

He continued saying that the counter mechanism by the device SHYCOCAN is that if negative seeking is the guidance mechanism of the S- Protein, attracted by the transmembrane potential of the host cells, then breaking this mechanism would block the Coronavirus infectivity and spread.

"The device has been in use for more than a year at the S-CARD campus, the headquarters of Scalene," said Kumar.
