Mangaluru, May 20: After the chief minister B S Yeddyurappa opted for self-abortion of his government on Saturday paving way for the formation of JD(S)-Congress coalition government in the state, the workers of two parties in this coastal city raised slogans hailing each others’ leaders.

Soon after Yeddyurappa tendered his resignation without facing a floor test in the assembly, a group of JD(S) in front of the party office at Bendoorwell in the city distributed sweets and raised victory slogans. Interestingly, one among the workers shouted ‘Sonia Gandhi ki Jai’.

Speaking on the occasion JD(S) leader Vasanth Poojary said that the two parties have foiled all the unethical bid of BJP to purchase MLAs ahead of trust vote. He expressed hope that the coalition government led by H D Kumaraswamy would restore communal harmony in the coastal districts of Karnataka.

On the other hand, the workers of Congress party led by former MLA J R Lobo celebrated victory in front of the District Congress Committee office in the city.

While raising slogans hailing Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Siddaramaiah, D K Shivakumar and others, they included the name of chief minister designate H D Kumaraswamy too. Speaking on the occasion, Mr Lobo accused the BJP of misusing all powers attempting for horse trading in Karnataka.

Meanwhile, the Communist Party of India (CPI), which extended its support to the coalition government, said that the two parties should bury their minor differences for the national cause.

New Delhi, Jul 21: A 42-year-old contractual doctor, who was working with Delhi government's National Health Mission, passed away yesterday due to covid-19.

Dr Javed Ali had been on the frontline in the fight against the highly contagious illness since March. He tested positive for coronavirus on June 24 and was hospitalised for treatment over the next three weeks.

For the last 10 days, he was on a ventilator. Yesterday morning, Dr Ali breathed his last at the AIIMS trauma centre. He is survived by his wife and two children - a six-year-old son and a 12-year-old daughter.

"I am proud of my husband. He kept working till the end and he is a martyr. He did not take even one day off since March. He worked even on Eid," Dr Heena Kausar, his wife, told media persons.

The cost for the initial treatment at the private hospital was also borne by the family. "No treatment cost was covered when he was at a private hospital initially. We spent around Rs 6 lakh from our own pockets," she said.
