As part of its campaign for upcoming Assembly elections, the Karnataka state unit of Bharatiya Janata Party will be organising a ‘Suraksha Yatra' in Coastal and Malnad regions from March 3 to 6.

The party leaders will take out padayatra from two places -- Kushalnagar in Kodagu district and Ankola in Uttara Kannada district. Both the yatras will culminate in a rally at Suratkal in Dakshina Kannada on March 6, which will be addressed by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, party MP and state general secretary Shobha Karandlaje told reporters here on Wednesday.

She said there is an atmosphere of fear in the region following the recent communal tension. The yatra is aimed at instilling a sense of peace and security among both the Hindu and the Muslim communities. The yatra would not hurt the sentiments of any particular community, neither would it provoke communalism, she added.

While Union Minister D V Sadananda Gowda is scheduled to inaugurate the yatra from Kushalnagar, his ministerial colleague Anantkumar Hegde is scheduled to flag off the other yatra from Ankola on the same day, she added.

The idea is to take out a padayatra in cities and bike rallies in other parts. Both the teams will traverse through Kodagu, Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts before converging at Suratkal on March 6.

Before the padayatra, BJP national president Amit Shah will tour the coastal districts from February 20.

Bengaluru, Jul 9: Karnataka Medical Education Minister K Sudhakar on Wednesday said the private hospitals in the state have joined hands with the state government in the fight against COVID-19 and will provide 3,500 beds for patients.

"The meeting with managements of private hospitals has been successful and they have agreed to provide 3,500 beds for COVID-19 treatment," he said while addressing a press conference.

Pointing out that the step would help in providing more beds for COVID-19 patients, he added, "The state government is thankful to the private sector for joining hands with the government in this fight against the pandemic. Apart from beds, private hospitals will also run COVID-19 care centres in collaboration with hotels to treat asymptomatic and people with mild symptoms. Together with beds and COVID-19 care centres, private hospitals will add 6,000 to 7,000 beds in coming days," he said while addressing a press conference.

The minister while clarifying on JJM Medical College stipend issue said he had a number of meetings with the college as also the CM. "Held several meetings with the college management in this regard. I also discussed the same with Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa. He already asked the college management to release the stipend of Resident Doctors and PG Medicos immediately. Now it is up to the college management to act.

Urging the residents of the state to fight the pandemic with honesty, the minister said, "We should be honest about the virus and get tested ourselves without hiding it. Wearing masks, social distancing and following government guidelines are the weapon against COVID-19, which would help us to win this war."
