Mangaluru, Mar 4: Congress supremo Rahul Gandhi, who recently toured Hyderabad-Karnataka and Mumbai-Karnataka, is expected to visit coastal districts of Karnataka in third week of March.

MLC Ivan D'Souza on Saturday told media persons here that Rahul will tour undivided Dakshina Kannada district on March 20 and 21. The exact schedule is expected to be out within a week.

Mr D'Souza accused the BJP of instigating disturbances in the state. The BJP should introspect on the law and order situation in Karnataka when the BJP had been in power. The BJP leaders should also clarify on the purpose of Jana Suraksha Yathre-Mangaluru Chalo rally, he demanded.

"The BJP leaders are frustrated and well aware that the BJP will not come to power in Karnataka in the upcoming Assembly elections. Hence, they are engaged in hate politics by raising irrelevant issues and making false allegations against the Congress-led state government," he said.

The MLC said that the Congress has tweeted 10 questions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the issues of reduction in export, loan waiver, failure to announce support price to groundnut growers of Karnataka, step motherly attitude towards distributing grants to take up drought relief works and reduction in farm produce in the country.

The Modi-government that speaks so much against corruption has failed to pass the Jan Lokpal Bill in the Parliament, he said.

What's the point? Congress should really think about change of leadership if they want to survive in the future. Even christians and muslims in Mangalore are talking of supporting BJP, because "development". Don't know what's going on in their head.

Bengaluru, May 30: The Karnataka government will soon launch a project to maintain the health database of all its citizens, said Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar on Friday.

A first of its kind initiative, the "State Health Register" will be a robust and standardised health repository of all the citizens, as per an official release.

Sudhakar said that the project will be implemented first in Chikkaballapur district on an experimental basis. "Enhanced focus on healthcare has become imperative and our government is committed to providing world-class healthcare to all citizens," he added.

While speaking to media, the minister said that COVID-19 experience has demonstrated the necessity of having robust, real-time public health data and, therefore, there is a need to maintain a repository of health data of each and every citizen.

He said that the government will be undertaking a survey of all 6.5 crore people in the state, by using a team of Primary Health Centre officials, revenue officials, education department staff and ASHA karyakartas.

"They will visit each household and collect health data of all the members of the family. This will not only help the government to provide better healthcare but will also help efficient resource allocation, management and better implementation of various citizen-centric schemes in the state," Sudhakar stated.

"Public-Private Partnership -- It's our vision to provide world-class healthcare to all citizens in the state and we need accurate data to make our vision a reality. The health register is a futuristic project which is taken up in the interest of the people. The project will include 50 per cent partnership of private hospitals. The data collected will help us to prioritise healthcare based on geography, demography and other targetted measures," read the release.

Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has assured all support for the project and a detailed discussion will be undertaken in the upcoming cabinet meeting, said Dr Sudhakar.

The minister also assured that he is committed to ensuring that all citizens of the state have access to world-class healthcare.
