Bengaluru, Feb 13: Union Law Minister D?V?Sadananda Gowda on Friday claimed that a few ministers in the Siddaramaiah Cabinet and some Congress legislators were distributing money to influence voters in the Hebbal Assembly constituency.

sadananda copyAddressing a press conference in Bengaluru, he said the Congress was indulging in electoral malpractices and illegalities after the deadline for campaigning closed on Thursday.

The bypoll for the Hebbal seat is scheduled for Saturday.

Gowda said he had information that Ministers Roshan Baig, Dinesh Gundu Rao, Legislators Byrathi Basavaraj, Muniratna, R?V?Devaraj and Bengaluru Mayor Manjunatha Reddy had been allotted specific pockets and wards in the constituency. He said Energy Minister D?K?Shivakumar was leading the entire operation.

The Union?minister said he had lodged a complaint with the Election?Commission, while also urging it to take steps to ensure free and fair polls. Outsiders should not be allowed into the constituency, he said. The police too should act impartially. Party volunteers will also be monitoring the polls. It is the responsibility of the government to ensure there are no illegalities and law and order is protected, he said. He claimed that money had been stashed at the residence of a manager of a private bank in V Nagenahalli. However, it was taken away in a car, fearing raids, Gowda said.

DKS?refutes charges

Energy Minister Shivakumar has, however, termed Sadananda Gowda’s charges baseless. “The BJP leaders have sensed defeat in the bypoll to the Hebbal Assembly constituency. Hence, they are making such baseless allegations on the eve of polling. The ruling party has not misused its power during the campaign. All the ministers left the constituency on Thursday itself,” he claimed.

The BJP has accepted defeat the day the party decided to field Narayanaswamy, he said. “The party failed to find a local leader to contest the bypoll. How can an outsider effectively represent the constituency? People are aware of this and they will take the right decision at the time of voting,” he added.

Bengaluru, Mar 13: Google said on Friday that an employee at its Bengaluru office has tested positive for the COVID-19 coronavirus and the firm has directed all its employees in that office to work from home today as a precautionary measure.

"We can confirm that an employee from our Bangalore office has been diagnosed with COVID-19. They were in one of our Bangalore offices for a few hours before developing any symptoms. The employee has been on quarantine since then," Google said in a statement.

The firm has asked colleagues who were in close contact with the employee to quarantine themselves and monitor their health.

"Out of an abundance of caution, we are asking employees in that Bangalore office to work from home on Friday. We have taken and will continue to take all necessary precautionary measures, following the advice of public health officials, as we prioritize everyone's health and safety," it added.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has declared the coronavirus outbreak a pandemic.

Coronavirus, which originated in the Wuhan city of China, has so far spread to more than 100 countries infecting over 1,20,000 people. India has confirmed 73 cases of the lethal infection.

Bengaluru, Aug 2: Bengaluru based Centre for Advanced Research and Development (CARD), the research wing of organisation De scalene has come up with a device called "SHYCOCAN" (Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon) which neutralizes the coronavirus.

Speaking to news agency Dr Rajah Vijay Kumar, Chairman, Organisation De Scalene said that the device will not kill any bacteria or fungus, however, neutralizes the coronavirus particles.

"The device was tested for its safety and efficacy and is soon going to be manufactured and marketed in the US under the Enforcement Discretion policy of USFDA and in Europe as the device is CE compliant and is CE marked," said Kumar.

He also added the device will cover a volume of 10,000 cubic feet.

The device Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon (SHYCOCAN) is intended to be used in the residential, industrial and commercial environment and is designed for active containment by attenuation of Corona family of viruses. (Laboratories de Especialidades Immunological S.A. de C.V, Virucidal Activity concludes 99.9 per cent virus elimination), Kumar asserted.

"SHYCOCAN operates on regular 110/240V - 50/60 Hz wall socket and is a plug and play device, that delivers the necessary signals to a photon mediated electrons emitters (PMEE), that produces hypercharge high-velocity electrons by photon mediation that interacts with the negative seeking S-protein of Corona family of viruses thus reducing infectivity and prevent air and surface borne transmission of corona family of viruses," said Kumar.

The device does not use any chemicals, or any other consumables and does not produce harmful ozone gas or any other substances and is completely safe for use in any environment, he added.

"The attack mechanism of the Virus starts with the initial attachment of the virion to the host cell, it is initiated by interactions between the S-protein and its receptor on the "negative" cell membrane. The sites of receptor binding domains (RBD) within the S1 region of a coronavirus S-protein vary depending on the virus. 

The S-protein/receptor interaction is the primary determinant for a coronavirus to infect a host species and governs the tissue tropism of the virus. However, the end result is the fusion and release of the viral genome into the cytoplasm," said Kumar.

He continued saying that the counter mechanism by the device SHYCOCAN is that if negative seeking is the guidance mechanism of the S- Protein, attracted by the transmembrane potential of the host cells, then breaking this mechanism would block the Coronavirus infectivity and spread.

"The device has been in use for more than a year at the S-CARD campus, the headquarters of Scalene," said Kumar.
