Bengaluru, Jul 16: In yet another selfie-related tragedy, two software engineers from Bengaluru were washed away in Cauvery River while clicking selfies with friends at Mekedatu in Ramanagara district yesterday. The search operation is on.

The victims have been identified as Sameer Rahman (29), and Bhavani Shankar (29), residents of Bannerghatta Road in Bengaluru and natives of Bidar.

The incident happened between 10.30 and 11.30 am at Sangam, Mekedatu where the four friends, Sameer Rahman, Bhavani Shankar, Amit and Srikanth visited on two bikes. They were roommates.

Sameer was trying to take a selfie, when he slipped and fell into the water. Bhavani Shankar also leaped in to save his friend. Both remained untraced so far.

Soon after the tragedy, Amit and Srikanth sought help from locals who informed the police. The police alerted Fire and Emergency Services who rushed to the spot and started the search operation.

As the Krishnarajasagar (KRS) dam's 12 gates are open, the water level has risen to 60-70 feet more than the usual, a senior police officer said.

Sunday’s search operation was called off in the night and resumed on Monday morning. The search team are checking rock crevices underwater with the help of locals. They suspect the bodies could have gotten trapped.

The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has also been called for an elaborate search operation.

Jurisdictional Sathanur police have informed the victims' families of the accident, and are assisting the search team to retrieve the bodies.

in kerala news papers and channels if any malayalee irrespective of his religion kills, injured or traped ......

......news will be....... malayalee killed, malayalee injured, malayalee traped, all malayalees are safe..the news goes like this...... they are united under one language..... and there is no difference.

In karnataka most of the problems especially in D.K and udupi is  started from some evening Daily with sensational news and these news  papers are major role in dividing people in the name of religion. now some paid channels are doing the same job..

If news channels and polices are fare there will not be any issue

 

 

Here the intention is good. I think writer tried to show the intimacy between two religious people and also focusing on unity

People wont look or read the news if you are writing without that

Jun 19: BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday said Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray should sign an agreement with neighbouring Karnataka to avoid a repeat of flood in part of the state like it happened in August last year.

In August 2019, Kolhapur, Sangli districts and some other parts of the state faced unprecedented floods triggered by huge release of water from dams in western Maharashtra and from the Almatti dam in Karnataka.

Fadnavis said, The Maharashtra chief minister should hold an urgent meeting with the Karnataka chief minister and enter into an agreement over-discharge of water from the Almatti dam located on the border of both the states."

If water is not released from the Almatti dam in time, it will cause flooding in border areas of Maharashtra such as Kolhapur and Sangli.

"A pact between the two states would benefit both as it would help in keeping water levels in control, the former chief minister said.

The dams in the state already have sizeable water stock. It would be better if the chief minster schedules a meeting with the Karnataka chief minister regarding the same (agreement), the Leader of Opposition in the assembly said.

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.
