The BJP would convert the following two-lane roads: Manipal-Ambagilu, Old Taluk Office-Korangarapady, Beedinagudde-Alevoor, Brahmagiri-Bannanje, Brahmavar-Kalathur, and Manipal-Alevoor-Korangarapady Road into four-lane roads.

Priority would be given to widening the Malpe-Manipal-Parkala stretch on the National Highway 169A here.

The BJP will give importance to creating Greater Udupi. Solid waste would be scientifically disposed at the waste management plant at Alevoor.

A special fisheries industrial area would be created for the sake of fishermen. The fisherwomen selling dry fish would be given the lands, where they sell, on lease. The upkeep of Malpe beach would be given to local bhajan mandalis instead of private agencies. A cricket stadium would be constructed in Beedinagudde. An Information Technology hub would be established in the Constituency.

Efforts would be made to get an ESI Hospital in Udupi. Housing facilities would be provided to poor people. Udyog Melas would be held annually to provide jobs for the youth.

The maintenance of street lamps in the city would be improved. Importance would be given to maintenance of cleanliness in the city.

Washington, Jun 30: Researchers in China have discovered a new type of swine flu that is capable of triggering a pandemic, according to a study published Monday in the US science journal PNAS.

Named G4, it is genetically descended from the H1N1 strain that caused a pandemic in 2009.

It possesses "all the essential hallmarks of being highly adapted to infect humans," say the authors, scientists at Chinese universities and China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

The researchers then carried out various experiments including on ferrets, which are widely used in flu studies because they experience similar symptoms to humans -- principally fever, coughing and sneezing. 

G4 was observed to be highly infectious, replicating in human cells and causing more serious symptoms in ferrets than other viruses.

Tests also showed that any immunity humans gain from exposure to seasonal flu does not provide protection from G4.

According to blood tests which showed up antibodies created by exposure to the virus, 10.4 percent of swine workers had already been infected.

The tests showed that as many as 4.4 percent of the general population also appeared to have been exposed.

The virus has therefore already passed from animals to humans but there is no evidence yet that it can be passed from human to human -- the scientists' main worry.

"It is of concern that human infection of G4 virus will further human adaptation and increase the risk of a human pandemic," the researchers wrote.

The authors called for urgent measures to monitor people working with pigs.

"The work comes as a salutary reminder that we are constantly at risk of new emergence of zoonotic pathogens and that farmed animals, with which humans have greater contact than with wildlife, may act as the source for important pandemic viruses," said James Wood, head of the department of veterinary medicine at Cambridge University.

A zoonotic infection is caused by a pathogen that has jumped from a non-human animal into a human.
