January 22, 2016

Lucknow, Jan 22: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is accustomed to listening chants of ‘Modi Modi’ whenever he addresses a gathering be it in India or abroad. However, perhaps for the first time, he was confronted with opposition outside the Parliament when a group of students chanted ‘Modi murdabad’, ‘Modi go back’.

The incident occurred in Lucknow when Prime Minister Modi took to the dais to address students in the convocation ceremony of BR Ambedkar University.

As PM Modi started speaking, a group of students started chanting ‘Modi wapas jao’, ‘Modi go back’, ‘Modi haay haay, ‘Modi murdabad’. The security present there and some students of the university dragged the protesting students out of the hall. The protest was related to the suicide of Dalit student of Hyderabad University.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who spoke about the Dadri lynching after many days that led to Opposition slamming him for his silence, expressed his anguish at the untimely death of the student. The teary-eyed Modi said Mother India lost her son and he empathise with the mother who lost her son.

Following the national outrage over Rohith Vemula’s suicide, the executive council of the Hyderabad University revoked the expulsion of the remaining 4 Dalit scholars.

Five Dalit scholars were expelled from the hostel December. Rohith committed suicide.

Sontha Prasanth, Pepapudi Vijay Kumar, Sheshaiah Chemudugunta and Velpula Sunkanna were not allowed to use college amenities. Though they were allowed to attend the classes.

“The council after taking into account the extraordinary situation prevailing in the university, and after discussing the issue in detail, has resolved to terminate the punishment imposed on the students concerned with immediate effect,” a news paper quoted a council.

July 3,2020

New Delhi, Jul 3: Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) in Karnataka have emerged as a "crucial pillar in the state's success" in combating Covid-19, the Union Health Ministry said on Friday.

Acknowledging and praising their work, the ministry said they have been actively participating in household surveys in the state, screening inter-state passengers, migrant workers and others in the community for symptoms of the infection,

“Around 42,000 ASHAs have emerged as a crucial pillar in the state's success” in combating Covid-19, the ministry said.

"Recognizing the increased vulnerability of certain population groups to Covid-19, in a one-time survey to identify households with the elderly, persons with co-morbidities, and immune-compromised individuals, about 1.59 crore households were covered," the ministry said in a statement.

ASHAs regularly monitor such high-risk groups in their area with a periodicity of follow-up visits varying from once a day in the containment zones to once every 15 days in other areas, it said.

They also visit the houses of persons complaining influenza-like-illness (ILI) symptoms and severe acute respiratory infections (SARI), besides high-risk individuals who have called the state health department helpline numbers, the ministry said.

ASHAs are a part of the Rural Task Force, headed by Panchayat Development Officer (PDO) at the Gram Panchayat level, for addressing public grievances on both Covid-19 and non-Covid-19 related services.

ASHAs are trained female community health activists selected from the village itself and accountable to it. They are trained to work as an interface between the community and the public health system.

In the urban areas too, they have been at the forefront of dissemination of various awareness activities in fever clinics and swab collection centres in urban areas.

They have also actively screened cases of ILI and SARI in urban areas. They are also part of the screening teams at international and interstate check-posts.

Karnataka has reported 272 Covid-19 deaths and 18,016 cases, according to the health ministry data updated at 8 AM.
