Mangaluru does it again: Green Corridor created for organ transport

February 25, 2016

Mangaluru, Feb 25: For the second time in a year Mangaluru city traffic police on Thursday created a "green corridor" to facilitate unhindered transport of a brain dead donor's vital organ from a private hospital here to the Mangaluru International airport.

The harvested organs belonged to Vinith Raj, son of Krishna and Geetha Moolya, from Manjeshwar in Kasaragod district. The 19-year-old electrician was declared brain dead after he fell off a building following an electric shock recently.

When Vinith Raj's parents conveyed their wish to donate his organs to the doctors at AJ Hospital, they made necessary arrangements. A team of surgeons from Bengaluru arrived on Wednesday night to assist the local doctors.

Though the surgeons from two hospitals successfully harvested kidney, heart valves, liver and cornea, only liver was taken to Bengaluru through Mangaluru Airport, sources said.

It is learnt that the transport took around 12 minutes, a distance of 11 kms, with nearly three dozen personnel overseeing that the ever-busy road remained clear of all vehicles.

It could be recalled here that Mangaluru police had created Green Corridor for the first time in April 2015 to transport the organ of Jeevan Vijay Fernandes, 24-year-old accident victim from Bellur in Bantwal taluk.

Hats off to the above teamwork

A wonderful selfless act. He must have been a compassionate person.

Oh, my heart breaks for the family. My family also had to make the decision to donate my niece's organs. For me personally it was one of the most healing things knowing she had saved so many lives but I do often wonder how/where these people are.

Selflessness - the stuff of real heroes.

As a recipient of a heart just over two years ago I am eternally grateful for those who make this decision. I can continue to be a son, a husband, and a father to two small children.

My brother passed unexpectedly on 24th February 2015, he too donated his organs. His selfless act has helped us, as a family to know he breaths through another & has assisted at least four other recipients & their families last year. We would love to reach out to the recipients on his 1yr memorial but understand the sensitivity for some and respect their privacy but it's hard.... I know it would mean the world to mum & dad to meet them & would greatly assist in their healing. I wish there was a 'tick box' option to opt in for communication between families.

My deepest condolences to his family and friends on his passing. Organ donation is a befitting gesture to honour this young man. With much love to you all at his difficult time.

Feel sorry for the man and his family...life is unpredictable.

RIP!!! You r a real hero buddy...

these idiots will construct green corridors with lot of potholes. do practical and proper work rather than bs talk

Why drones flying at low heights in some Specific colour can not be used for Organ Transportation?

At times the Mangalore Police makes us proud and kudos to the team that coordinated with the transplant team of one and all.

Very good. Appreciated the good work Police department

he has shown that humanity does still exist in India. well done,. May Almighty Bless him , this deceased Son as well as the patients who received the organs. Kudos ot medical fraternity along with police who made this happen

Karnataka govt to build guest house for Kannadiga pilgrims in Ayodhya

News Network

August 8,2020

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Anticipating a huge number of pilgrims from Karnataka to start visiting Ayodhya following the foundation stone laying ceremony of the Ram temple, Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa on Friday requested his Uttar Pradesh counterpart Yogi Adityanath for two acres of land to build a 'yatri nivas' (guest house).

"A large number of pilgrims from Karnataka would be visiting Ayodhya. The government of Karnataka wishes to construct a yatri nivas for the pilgrims visiting Ayodhya," Yediyurappa wrote to Yogi.

"I request you to grant two acres of land in Ayodhya for this purpose," he said.

The Chief Minister said the yatri nivas will be constructed for the benefit of pilgrims from the southern state.

He also congratulated the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister for successfully laying the foundation stone for the Ram temple on Wednesday.

Comments

Use our money for corona patients. Dont waste tax payers money.

For Ayodhya pilgrims, Spend from your BJP looted money.

Our ruling govt is only interested in RAM Mandir and spending crores of rupees for the temple. Why the other community is not demanding fund from the GOVT?

Not bothered about the development of the country as currently we have no idea how to tackle the corona viurs. Ministers are keen on builing Guest house for pilgrims, Statue of RAM etc etc.

Please concentrate on how to minimise the Virus issue in KARNAKATA like other Gulf countries.

I got Rs 12 lakh to help terrorists to carry out R-Day terror attack: DSP Davinder Singh

coastaldigest.com news network

January 14,2020

Srinagar, Jan 14: Davinder Singh, deputy superintendent of police, who was arrested on Saturday along with two Hizb terrorists and a Hizb overground worker in Kulgam, has confessed to his interrogators that he had received Rs 12 lakh from the terrorists to ferry them to Jammu and then Chandigarh for their onward journey to New Delhi, IG (Kashmir) Vijay Kumar told the media here on Monday.

Intelligence sources said the terrorists planned to carry out attacks on Republic Day.

The DSP was suspended on Monday and is likely to be stripped of all his awards, including the President’s Police Medal for anti-militancy operations.

Davinder, who was interrogated by various intelligence agencies, including IB, military intelligence and RAW, besides the police, has disclosed that he had put up the terrorists at his Indira Nagar house in Srinagar, right next to the Army’s 15 Corps HQ, and thereafter accompanied them to Jammu in a Maruti car driven by the Hizb overground worker, intelligence sources claimed.

Meanwhile, sources said the Union home ministry may hand over the case to the NIA to find the real motive of the terrorists, Davinder’s links to terrorism and whether he had helped terrorists in the past as well.

The two Hizb terrorists arrested with Davinder are Naveed Babu alias Babar Azam, a resident of Nazneenpora in south Kashmir’s Shopian district, and his associate Rafi Ahmad Rather. The Hizb overground worker, identified as Irfan Shafi Mir, was driving the vehicle when it was intercepted by the police on Saturday. Irfan Shafi Mir has travelled to Pakistan five times on his passport.

Davinder, interestingly, was on duty ensuring security cover for the envoys of 15 countries who visited Srinagar at the Union government’s invitation last week.

There is 2 side for Terrorism, none have dare to attack or bombing unless there is hand from IB, Police and Intelligence (Also RSS support). Frequent bombings or terror attacks was stopped when Hemant Karkare emerged as true officer.

Control of state power by Hindus absolutely essential: BJP MP Tejasvi Surya

News Network

August 6,2020

Bengaluru, Aug 6: Firebrand BJP Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya on Wednesday said that control of state power by Hindus is absolutely essential for sustenance of Dharma.

His comments, in a series of tweets, came on a day Prime Minister Narendra Modi performed the groundbreaking ceremony for the Lord Ram temple at Ayodhya.

"Dear Hindus, Most important lesson is that control of State power by Hindus is absolutely essential for sustenance of Dharma. When we didn't control State, we lost our temple. When we regained, we rebuilt. The 282 (seats) in 2014 and 303 (seats) in 2019 to Sri Narendra Modi made today possible!", Surya, who is also the party's BJP youth Wing state general secretary, tweeted.

He also said that the survival of India depends on the survival of Sanatana Dharma.

"The Sanatana Dharma, that is nationalism,' Sri Aurobindo had said in his Uttarapara speech. But what does it mean? Along with Jai Sri Ram, the purohits also chanted Bharat Mata Ki Jai - That is Dharmic nationalism. If Dharma survives, India survives," he said in another tweet.
