It is learnt that the accident took place when the driver of the car, plying towards the city from Mangaluru International Airport, was trying to negotiate a curve at Padavinangady.

It is said that the driver, who was speaking on his mobile phone, couldn't notice a heavy vehicle coming from the opposition direction.

While negotiating the curve the driver turned his car to the extreme left to avoid collision. As a result, the car plunged off the road, over turned and landed in a ravine.

The ill-fated Skoda has been badly damaged after the accident. However, the car driver, said to be a doctor, escaped with minor injuries. More details are awaited.

Bengaluru, Apr 7: Former Minister and Leader of the Opposition Siddaramiah on Tuesday termed the shutting by private clinics in the state by doctors as an 'inhuman act'.

Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, the Congress leader said due to the fear of Novel Coronavirus, the doctors have closed their private clinics, which was against their profession.

This has affected the people, especially those, who are suffering from other deceases. He urged Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa to intervene and resolve the issue immediately.

Despite the government instructions not to close down their clinics, the doctors have not been responding positively, Mr Siddaramaiah noted.

In this connection, the government should act seriously and give necessary warning to the doctors, to either open their clinics to serve the people, or face action, he added.
