Mangaluru, Jan 9: A mild tension erupted at a ‘peace and harmony’ meet organised by Karnataka Journalists Union in association with Dakshina Kannada district administration at SCDCC auditorium in the city on Saturday.

However, the situation did not go out of control thanks to the presence of senior police officers in the ‘Shanti Sauharda Adalat’ which attracted several prominent leaders from different religions and communities. A few leaders of saffron fringe groups also took part in the meeting.

The tension erupted when Congress leader Mithun Rai slammed immoral policing against couples and vigilante attacks during cattle transportations. Unable to bear Mr Rai’s comments Bajrang Dal leader began to counter him. This led to a verbal clash between the two for some time.

In another instance, a few leaders of saffron fringe groups alleged Dakshina Kannada deputy commissioner AB Ibrahim of perusing double standard and showing soft corner towards one particular community. Mr Ibrahim rubbished the claims and warned them against making baseless and communal allegations.

Mangaluru, Jul 26: Rubbishing reports about cancellation of institutional quarantine for international passengers in Mangaluru, local health authorities have clarified that 14 day isolation including first seven day institutional quarantine must for international passengers. 

For past couple of days rumours were doing rounds on social media that the government has done away with quarantine for international passengers. A few Mangaluru-based news portals also had published it as news without quoting any reliable sources. 

Meanwhile, district health officer in his clarification message said that neither Karnataka government nor Dakshina Kannada district administrant has revised the quarantine norms for international passengers. 

“Those who arrive from overseas must remain in isolation for 14 days. Out of this, seven days have to be spent in institutional quarantine (in hotel or lodge). During this period, the throat swab sample of the person will be sent for covid-19 testing. If the report is negative, then they will be sent to home quarantine for another seven days."

He said that concession in terms of number of days has only been given for people with other health conditions, children and the elderly. "For children below 10 years, pregnant women, elderly above the age of 60 years and other with other ailments, the throat swab will be collected on the second day of institutional quarantine. If the report turns negative, they will be sent to home quarantine for 14 days."

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday demanded that the state government drop its plan to provide doorstep delivery of liquor.

"After faltering in mopping up revenue, the state government is mulling over allowing doorstep delivery of liquor by enabling online sales and starting new MSIL liquor shops in rural areas. I demand that the state government drop its plans," he tweeted.

"I came to know that the excise commissioner is keen to hold talks with a private firm to enable online sale of liquor. The government should back out from such a foolish decision. Otherwise, agitation is inevitable," Kumaraswamy said.

He said opening new liquor shops or online delivery will ruin the health of society.

"Post-COVID outbreak and subsequent lockdown, people are facing financial distress, struggling to lead day-to-day life. 

The government must withdraw such an imprudent decision to deliver liquor at doorsteps. Opening new liquor shops or the decision of online delivery in times of distress like this will spoil society's health. 

It is not fair for the government to fill its coffers by robbing people's money," he said in a series of tweets.
