The police said that Joylin Monis was riding pillion on a scooter driven by her younger sister Jacqueline Monis, a second year B. Com student in a city college.

The two were going down from Nantoor Circle towards Shivabagh Circle in violation of the temporary no entry' arrangement made by the traffic police to facilitate concreting of the road.

The road is open for vehicles from Shivabagh to Nantoor Junction while vehicles on the reverse direction have to take a detour either via Pumpwell Circle or KPT Cricle.

Though Joyline was wearing a helmet, she died on the spot. Jacqueline has been admitted to a private hospital with minor injury.

The police said the city bus was owned by S.M. Travels. The driver of the bus abandoned the vehicle and escaped soon after the accident, the police said.

Joylin and Jacqueline Monis are daughters of John Monis, who is the editor of Dirvem, a Konkani monthly magazine. They were staying near Kulashekar Church. Joylin was a lecturer of commerce with St. Agnes College while Jacqueline is a student of St. Aloysius College.

Nobody like rulers, bureaucrat or any citizen is bothered or cares such accident specially in Mangalore.

Human lives have no value specially for 2wheelers.

We are talking many projects in our area.
This is daily disaster. If we wish we can prevent such accidents with some good planning.

Such accidents are not UNPREVENTABLE.

If we want to allow our people to use 2wheelers, first we should plant to prevent and how to escape from these accidents.

Otherwise we all should by law or by force avoid using such vehicles.

At least our leaders in the city like DC, SP, RTO, MP, MLAs, Ministers, all those who use 2wheeler, please wake up and do the doable thing to save our people's lives.

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Amid the rising number of COVID-19 cases in Karnataka, the state's health department issued fresh guidelines for the disposal of bodies of COVID patients.

"Although an increased risk of COVID infection from a dead body to health workers or family members who follow standard precautions while handling the body is unlikely, the lack of scientific data requires the utmost care to avoid the inadvertent spread of COVID-19 during these times," the statement from the health department's press release read, emphasising on the dignity of the dead and the religious and cultural tradition.

The 23-page press release elaborated on guidelines regarding testing, handling of dead bodies and other specificities in relation to the management of COVID-19 bodies.

"Testing should not be insisted in every case of death, but only when they have a recorded history of influenza-like symptoms. The body should be handed over to the family members/ relatives in a dignified manner immediately after swab collection and hospitals should provide handouts with a list of dos and don'ts in English and Kannada laying down relevant information," the statement said.

It added, "At the mortuary, health care workers, mortuary staff and the family of the deceased body shall not come in direct contact with the dead body and must wear full personal protective equipment (PPE). If the family or relative are for any reason unable to cremate or bury the body, the local health authority shall arrange for the dignified last rites as per the religious traditions of the family."

Regarding autopsies (post mortem) on COVID-19 bodies, the state department said that they should be avoided, except in necessary circumstances.

The statement also gave detailed guidelines regarding the appropriate recording of COVID-19 deaths in line with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines.

Additionally, the health department made a statement about the admission procedure for COVID positive patients referred by other district administrations saying, "It is now mandatory for all the referrals from the BBMP admission and discharge of COVID positive patients to be done through the online COVID Hospital Bed Management System (CHBMS)."

The state's count of coronavirus cases was 1,51,449 in the past 24 hours.

So far, a total of 2,804 people have died due to COVID-19 in the state, while the average recovery rate in Karnataka is 49.3 per cent.

Bengaluru, Jul 16: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Thursday hit out at state Health Minister B Sriramulu for stating that "only God can save Karnataka" from COVID-19 and asked him to resign from his post.

Speaking to media here in Bengaluru, Siddaramaiah said, "The government cannot say that we are helpless. Why is the government in power? You have power and you have money. It is your primary duty to serve the citizens of the state."

On being asked about Karnataka Health Minister's statement, the Congress leader said: "Let him resign and go out. God will help you only if you will put all your efforts."

Meanwhile, President of the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee DK Shivakumar tweeted "Karnataka's Health Minister saying 'Only God can save Karnataka' reflects poorly on @BSYBJP govt's ability to handle the Covid crisis. Why do we need such a government if they cannot tackle the pandemic?"

Sriramulu had said on Wednesday that either people should inculcate awareness or only God can save them from COVID-19.

"Who can save us at this time? It's either God or people should inculcate awareness in them. Congress leaders are involved in political mudslinging at this time. This is not fine and it will not help them in any way," the Minister had said.

"It is a crucial time, in the interest of the general public. I request all the Congress leaders not to indulge in loose talk regarding the issue, it leads to more panic situation among the general public. We are ready to adhere to any punishment if we did any wrong thing," he had added.
