JD(S) trying to bribe my ex-staff to malign my image: Sumalatha

Mandya, Apr 10: Independentcandidate Sumalatha on Tuesday accused the JD(S) leaders of making efforts to tarnish the image of her family and thereby turn the tide in their favour.

“I just received credible information that JD(S) are making efforts to tarnish the image of my family. For that, two former domestic employees of my family have been tutored to tell bad things with regard to my family. It is the JD(S) leaders’ idea to denigrate my family in the eyes of the public and thereby defeat me in poll fray,” Sumalatha told media persons at Srirangapatna on Tuesday.

Sumalatha also made a damning accusation against JD(S) leaders, claiming that those two former employees of her family were being offered lucrative bribes like a foreign tour to Singapore or Dubai, Rs 10 to 15 lakh in cash and plots in Bengaluru.

“I got this information from reliable sources within JD(S) and from my former domestic workers. I had never imagined that the JD (S) leaders would stoop so low to stymie my chances to win the poll. JD(S) leaders have, so far, seen only one side of my face. If l lose my patience, JD(S) leaders have to run to save their faces,” Sumalatha said.

Meanwhile, minister C S Puttaraju countered Sumalatha’s allegations saying that she shouldn’t employ such bad ideas to win the poll.

“There is no reason to do such bad things to win the poll. Sumalatha is making a lot of false accusations. We are really wondering about Sumalatha’s political acumen and her mature behaviour in making political statements. It is better for Sumalatha to stop making concocted allegations against us for political gain,” minister Puttaraju said.

Bengaluru,  Aug 4: Karnataka has seen a substantial increase in COVID-19 recovery rate, which was 5.67 per cent in the last week, state Medical Education Minister Dr. K Sudhakar said.

"Every day there is an increase in recovery rate which is higher by 9.17 per cent in Bengaluru city. The overall recovery rate of the state by Sunday evening was 42.81 per cent and it is 35.14 per cent in Bengaluru," the Minister wrote in a tweet.

Minister Sudhakar also directed officials to resolve the issue raised by a woman who had written to him about her struggle to take possession of the body of her father in St. Johns hospital, Madivala.

The hospital she claimed was charging money to hand over the body.

"It is inhuman on part of the hospital to refuse handover of the body. I came to know about this incident in the media and responded immediately to help out the woman," Dr. Sudhakar wrote in his tweet.

Karnataka has so far reported 74,598 active COVID-19 cases, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

Jan 31: A bunch of fishermen in Kerala is being praised for releasing an endangered shark back into water. A video posted on Twitter shows the fishermen releasing the whale shark that was trapped in their nets back into the sea.

The video was posted on Twitter by InSeason Fish - a group working towards environmental conservation, sustainable fisheries and healthy oceans. Filmed in Kerala's Kozhikode, it shows fishermen on a fishing vessel with the huge whale shark.

Whale sharks are the largest fish in the ocean and can reach up to 40 feet in length. Distinguished by their white spots, this shark is on International Union for Conservation of Nature's list of endangered species.

In the video, at least seven fishermen are seen working together to lift the thrashing whale shark up with the help of ropes and releasing it into the water.
