Bengaluru, Jun 1: JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy has said that Congress is his “first enemy”, as it is making concerted efforts to dent the regional party's prospects.

1kummiSpeaking to reporters in Bengaluru on Tuesday, Kumaraswamy said that the Congress was trying to harm the prospects of the BJP in the Rajya Sabha and Legislative Council polls.

As both the JD(S) and BJP have fielded a second candidate in the Council elections, he said that he would hold talks with the saffron party leaders and decide on extending support. Both parties are short of numbers to get their second candidates elected.

He clarified that the upcoming elections were not a contest with Congress leader and Energy minister D K Shivakumar. “This is not a fight against D K Shivakumar. He is strategising to ensure that his party candidate wins and I am doing the same,” he added.

Bengaluru, Apr 10: Renowned ophthalmologist and Narayana Nethralaya Chairman Dr K Bhujang Shetty today advised those wearing contact lenses to switch to eyeglasses as a preventive measure.

“Though the facial mask is mandatory as a preventive measure against the dreaded Coronavirus, not many know that the virus can also enter the body through eyes. Wearing glasses or spectacles reduces the spread of the virus,” Dr Bhujang Shetty said.

Although it is more likely that people may catch Coronavirus infections through mouth and nose, there are chances of the virus also entering through eyes. “In a day, humans tend to touch their face and eyes almost 20 times an hour knowingly or unknowingly. Users of contact lenses end up touching their eyes and face frequently, increasing the risk of infections. Therefore, it is advisable that they switch to eyeglasses until the situation improves”, according to a release here on Friday.
