Mangaluru, Dec 13: A group of miscreants thrashed a Muslim boy after he was found speaking to a girl belonging to another community in the city on Wednesday.

The boy and the girl, said to be friends, were speaking near State Bank Circle when a group followed them. On suspecting the motive of the group, the boy asked the girl to run away.

The group then caught hold of the boy and threatened him against speaking to the girl. They also allegedly thrashed him.

Though the boy claimed that they were colleagues working in a mall, the members did not let go of him. On learning about the incident, Mangaluru South Police rushed to the spot, sources said.

Inspector K U Belliappa said that, "When the boy and the girl were conversing, a group, claiming to be the girl's family, arrived and began interrogating the youth. The police rushed to the spot. It is not known whether the group belongs to any organisation," he said.

Why such type goondagiri is taking place in karnatka.  Why police are soft on the terror group who are behind such gundagiri.   why are they not allowing people to live in peace.  Police should trace the culprits from nearby  cctv and arrest under goonda act.   such miscreants need to be punished to teach lesson to their colleagues.   In the meantime, why these youngersters are doing unneessary things and put themselves in truble.  Talking to a girl from another community is a crime nowadays and sangh parivar members have the right to beat anyone talking to girl from different community.  These miscreants have blessings from bjp.   Situation may go out of contral in case Police do not contral these goondas from doing immoral policegiri.

Bengaluru, May 4: Former Karnataka chief minister HD Kumaraswamy on Sunday said that the health of the migrants who have been allowed to move, should not be jeopardized and appropriate tests must be conducted.

"The task was to send the workers to their places. However, their health should not be jeopardized. This decision made for their benefit should not be a travesty for them. There will also be physical interference on the buses and appropriate tests must be done," said Kumaraswamy.

"The lockdown, which was implemented without any prerequisites, is now loosened without warning. The state government, which has allowed migrant workers to move to the city, has mobilized large numbers of people. By this, the government is playing with their health," he added.

He continued saying that the government should not lose out on an unscientific move that resulted in the loss of thousands of crores of rupees from a custodial lockdown.

"Workers and villages must be sober. The government must take all necessary precautions in this regard," he added.

Bengaluru, Jul 1: Eighteen private hospitals here have been slapped with a show-cause notice after a 52-year old patient with influenza-like illness symptoms died here on being allegedly denied admission by them citing "non- availability" of beds. 

Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesdy said refusal to provide treatment was not only inhuman but also illegal as he tagged a copy of the notice in a tweet. 

"Notice has been served to the hospitals taking cognisance of the (media) reports about the denial of admission to a patient in emergency. Denying medical assistance during emergency is not only inhuman but also illegal," he tweeted. According to a report, the son and nephew of the patient took him to the 18 hospitals on Saturday and Sunday but he was not admitted on the pretext of non-availability of beds or ventilators. 

The man died later. The Commissioner of Health and Family Welfare issued the show-cause notice to the top authorities of the hospitals under the Karnataka Private Medical Establishment (KPME) Act, 2007. 

"By denying admission to the patient, your hospitals have violated the provisions of the KPME Act. You are liable for legal action," the notice said, seeking replies within 24 hours as to why action should not be against the hospitals. 

This was a "clear violation" of providing medical assistance and admission necessitated under the agreed provision of the KPME registration. Private medical establishments cannot refuse or avoid treatment to patients suffering from COVID-19 or having symptoms, the common notice added. 

The incident comes in the backdop of repeated instructions by the government that hospitals cannot deny admission to the patients suffering from coronavirus or having symptoms.
