Thiruvanathapuram, Mar 27: The state is heading for its worst ever crisis with coronavirus cases increasing rapidly and Kasargod district the worst hit. On Friday alone 39 positive cases were reported in the state of which 34 are from Kasargod.
Chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan said the situation is grave and Kasargod has been the worst hit. More than the positive cases reported in the district, the worrying factor is that many people have come into contact with these positive cases.
The chief minister warned that the government will be forced to declare the names of the people who are defying the quarantine guidelines in the district. More people have been put under risk in the district and the district administration is much concerned since the results of 215 samples are yet to come.
There is no other way but to tighten the restrictions imposed in the district against the people coming out of their houses. The government has decided to provide more facilities to the hospitals in Kasargod and Kannur to meet an emergency.
The medical college hospital in Kannur will be converted into a coronavirus hospital with 200 bed strength. Steps have been taken to equip the medical college hospital with more facilities. The Central University at kasargood will be converted into as a temporary coronavirus treatment centre.
The state has also requested permission from ICMR to begin the testing facility here, said the chief minister.
The total number of positive cases reported in the state have now become 176 of which 12 have been discharged after testing negative. At present 164 positive people are admitted in several hospitals of the state.
On Friday of the 39 positive cases, two are from Kannur and one each from Thrissur, Kollam and Kozhikode. With this all the districts in the state have been now affected with coronavirus.
Mangaluru, Oct 24: A final year degree student, who had gone absconding after attacking his college principal last week for denying him hall ticket to appear for examination, was finally arrested by Mangaluru city police after four days of hunt.

Can't justify this act.......
For \TWO SLAP\" principal has admitted 2 days in hospital and politicize the internal issue through community/paid media.
I am not supporting this student but there is some reason behind this slap. Don't bring politics, community and ego in this issue and solve internally."
Brother Alwyn.. Dont pull this issue to political & drag muslim organisation.... Person who has done the mistake ofcourse he has to be punished.. no matter to which community he is belonged to...
Without any knowledge dont comment blindly....
IF you look at the Video there were more persons involved in the planned attack. Campus front of india, Popular Front of India, KFD, SDPI, Muslim League should join hands together to save Muslim student shahnavaz. other wise he will be in trash.
