Udupi, Jun 30: Sri Vishwesha Teertha Swamiji, the chief pontiff of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt has brushed aside the demand of fringe groups like Sri Ram Sena that he should apologize for revealing the fact that many Hindus also consume beef in India.pejawar

Several Hindutva hardliners including SRS chief Pramod Muthalik had slammed the senior pontiff and asked him to withdraw his statement which exposed the double standard of communal outfits that use beef as a pretext to target Muslims.

Replying to queries of media persons here on Thursday, the seer once again justified his decision to host iftar party for Muslims and allow them to offer namaz at the dining complex of the Krishna Mutt.

He also recalled an instance wherein leaders of Hindu community had reportedly reached an agreement with their Muslim counterparts to allow Muslims to offer namaz once in a week in the proposed Ram temple in Ayodhya when VP Singh was the prime minister of India.

The seer re-iterated that allowing Muslims to offer namaz cannot be an insult to Hindus or Hindu religion. Instead, it creates a positive opinion about Hindus among the followers of other faiths, he said.

Kalaburagi, Mar 11: A suspected coronavirus patient who had returned to Kalaburagi from Saudi Arabia on February 29 passed away today in hospital.

It is said he was admitted to the hospital on March 5 after he showed flu symptoms. But, the family members of the patient had shifted him to Hyderabad from GIMS on Tuesday against the advice of the doctors.

However, the district administration and District Health Officer (DHO) M A Jabbar are waiting for the final report of throat swab of the patient sent for lab test.

The DHO has directed Taluk Health Officer Sharanabasappa Kyatanal to supervise until the final rites of the suspect person were performed.

Kalaburagi Deputy Commissioner B Sharat said the patient died on Tuesday night on his way back to Kalaburagi after the doctor stated that chances of his survival was bleak. "It is still a suspected coronavirus case. We are waiting for the report," he said.

Sharat said he developed severe respiratory problem coupled with cough, cold and fever. "As he was 76-year-old, he failed to respond to the treatment. It is yet to be confirmed if the cause of death was coronavirus," he said.
