Dharwad, Feb 16: Rich tributes were paid to the 44 CRPF jawans killed in an attack by Pakistan sponsored Jaish-E-Mohemmed terrorist at Awantipore in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir. Members of several organizations visited the Kargil War Memorial at the deputy commissioner’s office premises on Friday and offered floral tributes to the slain soldiers.

Condolence meetings and candle light marches were also held at several places. While the mourners expressed grief over the attack, there was loud demand from people to take severe action against Pakistan and terrorist camps to avenge the killings.

Cutting across party lines, leaders and citizens said they stood by the families of the soldiers, armed forces and the Central government. They said they would support action against Pakistan which has been sponsoring terrorists against India. They also welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement that the armed forces have been given a green signal to do whatever is necessary to avenge the killings of Indian jawans and teach Pakistan an unforgettable lesson. Merchants, lawyers, students, teachers, members of Dalit Sangharsha Samiti and other organizations held separate meetings to condole the death of the jawans.

Members of Facebook group Dharwad Bonds took out a candle light march from Kadapa Maidan while members of Veer Sawarkar Geleyara Balaga held a meeting at Malamaddi.

Former minister Vinay Kulkarni along with Congress workers placed a wreath at the Kargil Stoopa while BJP workers and corporators offered floral tributes. JD(S) members too visited the memorial and offered tributes. Krishna Joshi and Chandrashelhar Aminagad of Uttara Karnataka Sainik Kalyana Samiti also paid tributes.

Merchants Association member Uday Yandigeri and Dharwad Bar Association president R U Bellakki demanded a conclusive action against Pakistan by harbouring terrorists and running a proxy war against India.

Bengaluru, Apr 28: Former Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday suggested that the government can allow sale of liquor in green zones. 

“Merely because there is an economic slowdown in the state, I don’t recommend that alcohol should be allowed to be sold. But, wherever there are green districts, they can open (liquor sale) with certain restrictions, I think,” Siddaramaiah, the leader of the Opposition, told reporters. 

There are 14 districts in the state that are categorised as green because they do not have any active COVID-19 cases. The green districts are: Yadgir, Raichur, Koppal, Haveri, Davangere, Shivamogga, Chitradurga, Udupi, Chikmagalur, Hassan, Kodagu, Chamarajanagar, Ramanagara and Kolar.

There is tremendous pressure on the B S Yediyurappa administration to revive the economy as the lockdown has dried up all revenue sources. Excise, alone, accounts for 18 per cent of Karnataka’s own tax revenue. 

The Excise department recently suggested allowing regulated sale of liquor through the state-run MSIL outlets. The government, however, did not approve it fearing crowding and backlash from the Centre.

Bengaluru, Jul 22: Congress MLA Priyank Kharge has questioned the Karnataka government on the alleged breakdown of oxygen in the intensive care unit (ICU) at ESIC hospital in Kalaburagi, saying he had got complaints that eight persons who were on ventilators had died.

He asked the government if it is "deliberately" hiding something about the patients that were admitted in ESIC.

"I have got complaints that eight people who were on ventilators are dead in ESIC Kalaburagi because there was oxygen breakdown in ICU. ESIC has not been admitting patients as the issue has not been resolved. Nobody is confirming or denying it. Is the Government deliberately hiding something?" he asked.
Kharge also accused the government of not having adequate facilities to combat COVID-19 in different parts of the state.

"I hope I am wrong, but if it is a fact, this ascertains that the administration has lost control over Corona pandemic in the district. No addition testing centre. No beds are available. PPE Kits and medical waste is thrown in Gulbarga Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS)," he added.

According to the Union Health Ministry, there are 67420 COVID-19 cases in the state.
