JD(S) poaches Cong's Altaf Khan, likely to field him against Zameer Ahmed Khan

Janata Dal (Secular) supremo H D Deve Gowda, who has vowed to defeat the seven former JD(S) MLAs (who migrated to the Congress) in the upcoming elections, has finally found a replacement to take on Muslim leader Zameer Ahmed Khan in Chamarajpet.

The JD(S) is said to have decided to field local Congress leader B K Altaf Khan against Zameer. Altaf, who was in the Congress for over two decades, will be officially joining the JD(S) on Monday. The JD(S) hopes to woo the over one lakh Muslim voters in the constituency, and thereby give a tough fight to Zameer.

The party was left hanging after Zameer, its sole influential Muslim leader, decided to revolt against the JD(S) leadership.

He, along with six other MLAs, was suspended after they cross-voted in favour of the Congress Rajya Sabha candidate K C Ramamurthy in 2016.

Though the Congress is yet to announce its candidates, it is pretty certain that Zameer will be fielded from Chamarajpet, a constituency which he has nurtured since 2004.

This has upset Altaf, who was aspiring for a Congress ticket from Chamarajpet. Incidentally, Altaf's wife Seema happens to be a Congress corporator from Jagajeevanram Nagar.

This will only benefit communal bjp. Congress and JD(S) fight is what bjp is looking for. BJP wants to divide votes of Muslims/Dalits/christians and gain out of it. I request voters to select and vote for a single candidate either from Congress or JD(s) and dont waste your valuable vote which will benefit communal party. Congress and JD(S) should keep aside their differences and fight their common enemy. Hope leaders of these parties will realise need of the hour and unite.

Mangaluru, Feb 10: Life of a 40–year-old man, who suffered a massive cardiac arrest, was saved by an ambulance driver who covered 80-km distance between Dharmasthala and Mangaluru in just 40 minutes.

The patient, a Chikkaballapur native sustained a heart attack near Sakleshpur on Saturday while he was on his way to Dharmasthala. He was provided preliminary treatment at a private hospital in Ujire, where doctors advised his relatives to shift him to a hospital in Mangaluru immediately.

The patient’s condition was critical and the odds were completely against him. Moreover owing to the ongoing double lane project work, the road too had been dugout. Despite all this, ambulance driver Hameed drove at a fast pace and managed to take the patient to the hospital within 40 minutes.
