Bengaluru, Jul 24: A day after he was expelled by the Bahujan Samaj Party supremo Mayawati for not voting in favour of H D Kumaraswamy-led coalition government, N Mahesh, the lone MLA of the party in Karnataka today claimed that it happed due to communication gap.

"The BSP fought against the Congress and the JD(S) and bagged votes in the recently concluded elections to local bodies. We fought as per the orders of the party supremo Mayawati in Parliamentary elections," he said.

Mahesh said that he remained neutral and didn't attend the Assembly session based on instructions of BSP Rajyasabha member Dr Ashok Siddarth.

"I was expelled due to communication gap. This will be set right. I will continue in the party," he clarified.

Meanwhile rumours are doing rounds that BJP had provided him a huge amount of black money for not attending assembly session during trust vote.

Mangaluru, Mar 8: A cruise ship with a Panama flag has been turned back at the New Mangalore Port here following the Centre's advisory in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, officials said.

Bengaluru, Jul 31: Gyms in Bengaluru carried out sanitation work on Thursday following the Centre's nod to reopen gyms from August 5, after several weeks of COVID-induced lockdowns.

"We are taking all the precautionary measures prescribed by the government and will follow the guidelines very strictly. A thermal scanner, oximeter and hand sanitizers have been placed at the entrance of the gym. 

We request all other gym owners also to follow the guidelines strictly to keep their members safe and healthy," said Prasad Kumar, a gym owner in Bangalore.

He added, "The last few months have been very difficult for us gym owners and fitness instructors. We are very grateful to the government for allowing us to re-open. 

We are going to be very cautious when we open. Even before this COVID-19 pandemic, we used to sanitise all the equipment before and after every use so hopefully, this won't be too difficult for us. We are getting rid of the air conditioners to allow cross ventilation and open the space a little more."

According to Chandu Gowda, an actor and frequenter of the gym, working out at home was not the same as working out in the gym with the proper equipment.

"I'm very glad that I get to come back and work out as I used to before this lockdown. For an actor, working out is extremely important, not just for my physical health but also mental health. 

Doing exercises at home is never as good as exercising in a space dedicated to one purpose. I hope other members of the gym follow the rules and regulations religiously," Gowda said.
