Bengaluru, May 6: Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday hit out the BJP and said its leaders should declare themselves “pagal ” (mad) instead of “ chowkidar ” (watchman) in the interest of the public.

Fearing electoral defeat, BJP leaders, right from Prime Minister Narendra Modi to K.S. Eshwarappa, have let their tongue loose, Mr. Siddaramaiah tweeted.

His tweet came a day after Mr. Eshwarappa made a heinous comment against Mr. Siddaramaiah. “The frustration of being on the verge of defeat is visible in everyone from Narendra Modi to Eshwarappa. For the interest of the public, it is better that BJP leaders claim themselves to be pagal instead of chowkidar ,” the Congress leader said.

Addressing a gathering in Dharwad’s Kundagol during a BJP rally on Saunday, Mr. Eshwarappa had asked, “What if Siddaramaiah’s granddaughter was raped?”

Taking to Twitter on Monday, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president Dinesh Gundu Rao said, “By asking ‘What if @siddaramaiah’s grand daughter was raped,’ @BJP4Karnataka leader K.S. Eshwarappa has revealed his inhuman side. Only a person who has lost his mental balance would make such a reference to a school-going kid. He should be locked up permanently. @PMOIndia.”

Bengaluru, Jul 2: Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Thursday launched the ICU Telecard, developed by CISCO to address the concerns of doctors treating coronavirus patients.

Wi-Fi networks and Cisco Health platform help to protect the entire medical team dealing with the infected person by ensuring that doctors do not have to be inside isolation wards and COVID ICUs.

The ICU Telecard has been installed at Victoria and KC General hospital.

"This technology is a necessity to safeguard health of our doctors and it should be implemented in all hospitals. We will discuss about this in the task force meeting and decide regarding the use of this technology in all COVID hospitals in the state. For now, we have installed one at Victoria and KC General hospital" said the minister.

Addressing the complaints of non-release of dead bodies without coronavirus testing, Sriramulu said: "Experts have discussed the same in a meeting with the Chief Minister yesterday, who has ordered for an increase in the number of testing labs. This should resolve the issue. We are also contemplating the conduct of plasma therapy in all districts."

The minister said that the government has also decided to reserve two ambulances for every ward to address the issue of non-availability and will procure more ambulances on rent if the existing ones are insufficient.

He further informed that those who were seen dumping the bodies in a pit in Ballari have been suspended and notice has also been served to officials in Yadagiri.

"We will ensure such instances do not repeat in the state," he said.
