Uppala, Sept 15: The Kerala State Commission for Protection of Child Rights has registered a suo motu case in connection with the death of a Class VI student from Uppala in the district.

The commission on Thursday directed the District Collector, Superintendent of Police, District Education Deputy Director, District Child Welfare Officer, District Medical Officer, and the Directorate of Public Instruction to furnish reports within a week.

The panel’s action follows the death of Ayisha Mehnaz, 11, daughter of Abdul Khader, a student of a school under the Uppala Manimunda Education Society.

There were reports that the girl was subjected to torture by two lady teachers of the school accusing her of copying the question paper in her answer sheet in a term examination.

The girl had undergone treatment at a Mangaluru hospital and returned home. However, the death of the girl on Tuesday at her residence sparked suspicion among the local people and a post-mortem examination was conducted at Pariyaram Medical College Hospital on Wednesday.

However, the preliminary report from the hospital attributed the girl’s death to a bout of epilepsy, Kumbla Circle Inspector V.V. Manoj said adding that the student had undergone treatment for neurological disorders earlier.

The police, as per a complaint lodged by a girl’s relative, registered a case under Cr.PC 174 (unnatural death), Mr. Manoj said.

Udupi, Jan 16: The mandatory implementation of FASTag, across the country, was not enforced in the toll gates located in Udupi and Dakshina Kannada districts.

The toll gate personnel cited that they had not received any directions from the NHAI and hence vehicles were being allowed to ply as per the current practice.

As per government order, two gates each have to be reserved for locals, emergency entry and cash transactions. All other lanes are to be used for FASTag.

Bengaluru, May 26: Ministers of the central government or state governments or officers on their official duty, who are travelling across states, will be exempted from requirements of quarantine, the Karnataka government said on Monday.

The state government issued an addendum to Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for inter-state passengers.

"Any person who gets a negative COVID test certificate (from ICMR approved lab) which is not more than two days old from the date of journey will be exempted from the requirement of institutional quarantine," read the addendum.

The state government has laid down new norms for those coming from other states (including those coming by domestic air flights).

Passengers coming from 'high prevalence states' (Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh) would be required to undergo a seven-day "institutional quarantine", which will be followed by home quarantine.

The new norms also said that home quarantine of 14 days would be necessary for the passengers coming from other states.
