Bengaluru, Sept 19: JD(S) leader H D Kumaraswamy has said that he will be out of action for the next fortnight owing to health complications.

Kumaraswamy, who said that he will be undergoing a valve replacement surgery on September 23, appealed to his supporters and party workers not to get anxious, as it was a routine procedure.

The JD(S) leader who had undergone heart surgery in December 2007, was scheduled for a valve replacement in the next two years.

‘Toll on health’

“However, for the last seven to eight months, I have been coughing incessantly, and this has taken a toll on my heart. The problem aggravated when I was travelling to Israel recently. I couldn’t walk steadily in the Mumbai airport, nor could I climb the stairs in Israel. I consulted some doctors there and they said I needed to undergo surgery immediately, but I put it off,” Kumaraswamy said.

Once in Bengaluru, Kumaraswamy underwent a series of tests and investigations. He is scheduled to be admitted to Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research hospital in the next couple of days.

When contacted, noted cardiologist and director of Jayadeva, Dr C N Manjunath, said that a team of four to five experts including pulmonologists and cardiologists will first screen Kumaraswamy to determine whether the problem is respiratory or cardiac or interconnected.

“If the degree of the valve problem is significant, then we will go for a replacement surgery,” he added.

Bengaluru, Feb 4: The CBI has booked Karnataka cadre senior IPS officers Hemant Nimbalkar and Ajay Hilori along with eight others in connection with Rs 4,000-crore I-Monetary Advisory (IMA) scam in which gullible investors were allegedly cheated in the name of Islamic banking, officials said on Tuesday.

The move came after the CBI received an approval from the Karnataka government to proceed with investigation into alleged role of 1998-batch IPS officer Nimbalkar and 2008-batch IPS officer Hilori, they said.

Along with the two officers, the agency has also named the company IMA, its founder Mansoor Khan and others in the case.
