Udupi, Nov 21: Vishwesha Tirtha Swami, the chief pontiff of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt stated that he did not invite Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah to Krishna temple during latter’s recent Udupi visit because he had ignored the previous invitations.

Replying to media persons questions on the sidelines of Haji Abdullah child and mother’s hospital inauguration in Udupi on Sunday, the CM had clarified that he never deliberately avoided visiting Krishna temple/mutt. He had also said that this time he did not get any invitation from the temple.

The seer on Monday said: “I have invited the CM many times but he ignored us and that's why this time I didn't call him.”

“When we know that CM is not interested in visiting the Krishna mutt, why should we call him again and again? During every visit to Udupi, we have sent him an invitation to visit the mutt but he never turned up. Now, it’s up to him. I don't think he'll come in the future too," the seer claimed.

"Whenever I meet him outside, we speak but I have no idea what's his problem. Maybe it's because he listens to intellectuals who don't like the Krishna Mutt or the Pejawar seer and has decided not to visit the mutt," added the seer, who is also a well-wisher of BJP ‘margdarshak’ of many saffron outfits.

Thanks CD for letting us know the true version of the story. Some media portrayed as if chief minister told lies. Her it is very clear. Let Pejawar seer stop Made-Snana, Pankti Bheda etc uncultured practices then send invitation to a leader like Siddaramaiah.

Bengaluru Jul 29: There will be a centralised system in place in Karnataka to classify asymptomatic, symptomatic and mild symptomatic persons and recommend treatment based on the severity of the cases, said Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar on Tuesday here.

"Various existing apps related to COVID-19 will be brought under one platform to get real-time information which will assist in strategising allocation of hospitals/beds to the needy. This will probably remove the delay in bed allocation and treatment which is being faced now. The patients will get all information in one phone call," Dr Sudhakar said.

Sudhakar spoke with a team of experts from the government and Infosys.

Referring to a company by name Step 1, which is providing such services in Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, the Minister said that a similar system will be implemented in the state as well.

"This company is having a team of doctors and nurses which is guiding the people whether they need hospital treatment or home isolation after they are tested positive for COVID-19. More than 70 per cent of the positive cases are being asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and are advised to go for home isolation," the minister said.

"The load on the hospitals is reduced and severe cases can be administered proper treatment. Infosys co-ordinates with the government to provide technical support for this system," Dr Sudhakar added.

Earlier during the day, the minister held a video conference with the heads of private medical colleges to review COVID preparedness.
The government has already passed guidelines to allocate 50 per cent of hospital beds for COVID patients.
