Speaking on the occasion he directed the MCC to install a new scrubber-cum-high-chimney at the crematorium and get approval for the same from the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board (KSPCB). Till that is done, the old chimney could be used.

The MLA asked the corporation to purchase a generator and commission it at the earliest. Installing the two new facilities would cost about Rs. 25 lakh. Mr. Lobo also instructed the corporation to put up a new roof for the electric fire chamber building.

He called upon people who lose prejudices against using the environment-friendly electric fire chambers.

He added that based on the success of the electric fire chamber at Boloor, the authorities would take a call on installing them at the Kadri and Nandigudda crematoriums.

The electric fire chamber at Boloor had been defunct for a decade. It was first introduced in 1990, and functioned till 2006. Once the chamber went out of the order, it was replaced with a liquefied petroleum gas-based fire chamber. This chamber was in use till 2011, when it also went out of service.

The corporation has spent around Rs. 20 lakh on this new facility — Rs. 13 lakh on the electric chamber and Rs. 7 lakh on the electric transformer. The new facility can be put to use from Wednesday.

#1. Honest

Islam says dead body will feel pain.? Please note brother, it talks about life in Al Barzakh not that dead body will feel pain. There is a difference. What happens to the bodies that of those that died in a fire accident?
Dont worry, whether they burn or bury, mushriks will definitely feel the torment, No Escape!

ISLAM says the dead body will feel PAIN.... Please stop torturing the DEAD by such electric fire chamber...
QURAN has a lot of things to say about MANKIND and all the CREATION of ALLAH...
Every soul will die and it has an appointed time with our CREATOR... The eternal life (which will never end) starts when the CREATOR who gave us this life takes it back & will be judged for their deeds of this Life.
Recognize the TRUE CREATOR and Do good for the eternal Heaven..

Bengaluru, July 17: An infant with heart-related complications died after 10 private hospitals in the city allegedly refused to admit him over coronavirus fears.

In search of a hospital to treat his one-month-old child, the helpless father drove around for 200km in the city. The child breathes its last after suffering for 36 hours.

The infant’s health worsened around 11am on Sunday. “A doctor from a nearby clinic visited our house and said the baby had heart-related issues. As advised, we decided to shift the child to a private hospital,” the father said. The family lives in Basaveshwaranagar.

The parents went to several private hospitals, but in vain. “We visited hospitals in Bavaveshwaranagar, Chord Road, Sheshadripuram, Goraguntepalya and Yeshwanthpur. None of them agreed to treat our baby, and we returned home at night,” the father said. 

“On Monday morning, we started the journey again. This time, we went to a hospital near Jayadeva flyover. We were driving near Marathahalli when our child stopped breathing. We rushed to a nearby private hospital, where doctors declared him brought dead,” he said.
