After visiting dargah why didnt this darga commitee had a salah along with dewe gowda

He knows that there is no difference between Durga & Darga. Worshiping the dead is shirk (Major sin) which Allah will not forgive. It is just a Money making center & mafia center

Namma Farooq Sahibru DURGA mattu DARGA dallu prathyaksha.
Beshhhh kanri iddu rajakiya annudu ivarige Dhunya mukya Akirath secondary....Change yourself before its too late.

Durga or darga.... both are same which is shirk

Nice headline.

Switch over to eyeglasses from contact lenses until corona subsides: Dr Bhujang Shetty

News Network

April 11,2020

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.
