The demise of 54-year-old scholar, who was the principal of Jamia Islamia Educational Institutions and Khatheeb of Jamia Masjid for several years, came as a shock to the entire town of Bhatkal.

The end came at around 4:30p.m. and the mortal remains of the departed soul were brought back to Bhatkal at 9:30 p.m. Thousands of mourners including socio political leaders gathered in the vicinity of the house and waited late into the night to get a glimpse of the deceased.

As soon as the sad news began to spread, the people of Bhatkal voluntarily closed down their shops and businesses as a mark of respect. Bhatkalis in Middle Eastern countries too closed down their shops.

Meanwhile, Majlis-e-Islah-wa-Tanzeem, a prominent body of Bhatkal Muslims, declared holiday for all Muslim educational institutions in Bhatkal.

Well known for his Juma Khutbah (Friday sermons) for three decades and eloquent way of reciting Qur’an, Maulana had thousands of fans and followers in and around the town. He served as the imam of Jamia Masjid for over 32 years.

After completing his education in Darul Uloom Nadwatul Ulama, a prestigious Islamic education institution based in Lucknow, he joined Jamia Islamia in 1983 as a teacher of theology and Islamic studies. As its principal for the last 15 years, he was instrumental in making it one of the best centres for religious education in south India.

Several socio-cultural and religious organizations of Bhatkal and groups of nonresident Bhatkal people from across the world have expressed deep grief over Maulana’s demise.

The janazah prayer will be held on Thursday at 10 am at Jamia Masjid and he will be laid to rest at the cemetery in Takiya street.

Bengaluru Jul 29: There will be a centralised system in place in Karnataka to classify asymptomatic, symptomatic and mild symptomatic persons and recommend treatment based on the severity of the cases, said Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar on Tuesday here.

"Various existing apps related to COVID-19 will be brought under one platform to get real-time information which will assist in strategising allocation of hospitals/beds to the needy. This will probably remove the delay in bed allocation and treatment which is being faced now. The patients will get all information in one phone call," Dr Sudhakar said.

Sudhakar spoke with a team of experts from the government and Infosys.

Referring to a company by name Step 1, which is providing such services in Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, the Minister said that a similar system will be implemented in the state as well.

"This company is having a team of doctors and nurses which is guiding the people whether they need hospital treatment or home isolation after they are tested positive for COVID-19. More than 70 per cent of the positive cases are being asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and are advised to go for home isolation," the minister said.

"The load on the hospitals is reduced and severe cases can be administered proper treatment. Infosys co-ordinates with the government to provide technical support for this system," Dr Sudhakar added.

Earlier during the day, the minister held a video conference with the heads of private medical colleges to review COVID preparedness.
The government has already passed guidelines to allocate 50 per cent of hospital beds for COVID patients.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Working President of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee, Eashwar Khandre on Friday said that his party has extended its support to the demand made by the former chief minister of Karnataka, HD Kumaraswamy, that a House Committee should be formed to probe into Mangaluru violence.

Emphasising the need for a judicial probe into the incident, Khandre said, "Congress has always said that the truth should prevail and that there should be a judicial inquiry and investigation by a sitting Supreme Court judge or a High Court judge into the incident."

"We support his (HD Kumaraswamy) statement that a House Committee should be set up to probe into the incident of Mangaluru violence. Two innocent people lost their lives during the anti-CAA protest, it is very unfortunate," he added.

Two people were killed in Mangaluru in the alleged police firing after protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act turned violent on December 19.

The Act grants Indian citizenship to refugees from Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi communities fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh who entered India on or before 31, 2014.
