Udupi, Mar 13: Shiroor mutt pontiff Sri Laxmivara Teertha Swami’s decision to contest upcoming Assembly election from Udupi constituency is a political conspiracy, according to BJP leader and former Udupi MLA K Raghupathy Bhat.

Speaking to reporters, here Mr Bhat accused District in-charge Minister Madhwaraj of hatching up a conspiracy against him joining hands with the seer.

“They seer said he would contest from Udupi. But, he is all praise for Congress and Minister Pramod Madhwaraj. This is nothing but a conspiracy,” he said.

The former MLA said that BJP leaders are into convincing the seer, however, after going through a survey, a decision would be taken on the probable candidate. He said he would happily accept the party high command's decision.

Also, he denied that his own party members who are against him contesting the elections have planned and made the seer agree upon contesting. He said there is no such difference within the BJP.

Bhat said the seer, before praising the Congress, should have considered the corruption involving Congress administration in Udupi. The seer is being considered as one of the probable candidates in the list of BJP and there are also possibilities of him being considered for the party's ticket for Udupi constituency.

In Tamilandu the political glitter, spoiled the Kanchi seer, and became a scape goat in the hands of corrupt politics of ruling party. It may be a warning to this seer to think twice. As rightly said, it is not his duty

Bengaluru, May 23: Karnataka reported 216 covid-19 positive cases in last 24 hours, marking the highest single day spike in the state ever since the first case was detected on 8 March. 187 of these 216 patients have recently returned from Maharashtra.

A 32-year old male resident of Bengaluru died on Saturday making it the 42nd fatality in the state.

The spike on Saturday takes the total number of covid-19 positive closer to the 2,000 mark and the number of active cases to 1,307 in the state, according to the daily health bulletin of the health department.

Yadgir in northern Karnataka recorded 72 cases on Saturday while Raichur recorded 40 cases. Cases in the sugarcane growing region of Mandya continued to rise as 28 people tested positive on Saturday that takes the total number of active cases to 211 as against Bengaluru that has 124.

Gadag registered 15 cases while Bengaluru recorded 4 cases.

Most of those who tested positive on Saturday had returned from other states, especially Maharashtra, one of the worst affected regions in the country.

The spike in cases comes even as the B.S.Yediyurappa-led state government is deliberating further easing of lockdown restrictions post 31 May. The state government has already resumed public bus and train services as well to facilitate inter-district movement of people that has added to fears of spreading the virus from cities to villages where healthcare infrastructure is poor and inadequate.

Karnataka will also see domestic flight arrivals from Monday.

In a statement on Saturday, Bengaluru International Airport said that it introduced ‘Parking-to-Boarding contactless’ journey.

“We have introduced innovative contactless procedures to minimise exposure at the Airport. These enhancements demonstrate our continued commitment to keep our passengers safe in this environment," said Hari Marar, managing director and chief executive of the airport said in a statement on Saturday.

Mangaluru, Aug 7: A woman suffered critical injuries after a speeding car knocked down her scooter and then ran over her at Kadri Kambla Junction in the city today.

The woman identified as Vanishri Bhat (22) a resident of Kedila from Puttur. 

A CCTV footage of the accident, which went viral on social media, shows the car hitting the scooter, pushing the woman on road for a couple of meters before climbing over her.

The car stopped when she was under it. A few people including a policeman lifted the car from the front and rescued the woman. 

She was immediately taken to a private hospital in Mangaluru City MLA U T Khader’s car which was passing through that way. 

She has suffered critical injuries on her head, ribs, hands and legs, sources said. She is reportedly responding to treatment. 

It may be recalled that in December last year a lorry-auto accident at the same spot claimed life of a 56-year-old teacher while the auto driver miraculously survived. Following the accident, speed breakers were installed at the junction.
