Tulu Koota Kuwait to donate kidney dialysis units to Adarsha, SCS hospitals

March 20, 2011
Mangalore, March 20: Tulukoota Kuwait in association with Aadarsha hospital Udupi is holding the "Tulukoota Kuwait Kidney Dialysis Project".


A recent survey has indicated that less than 10% of the total patients requiring dialysis in India are able to avail the facility. Hemodialysis treatment is very expensive. The medicines are equally costly and a majority of the patients are not able to afford this treatment. Adding to the problem, health insurance policies do not cover the cost of dialysis owing to the high cost.



As part of Tulukoota Kuwait Kidney Dialysis Project, the Koota has decided to donate a kidney dialysis unit to Adarsha hospital Udupi, the formal programme for which would be held on Friday, March 25, at the hospital.




Similarly the Koota has decided to donate two kidney dialysis units and RO Plant to SCS Hospital Mangalore where BPL (below poverty line) patients & lower income group patients will be entitled to receive free/discounted kidney dialysis. The formal programme with regard to this will be held on Sunday, March 27 at the hospital.

Bengaluru, June 22: BJP leader and Madikeri MLA Appachu Ranjan has urged the Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa and Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai to drop cases against the saffron activists who had involved in attacks against cattle traders and transporters across the state.

In a letter addressed to the CM and the Home Minister, the MLA expressed his concern against the illegal transportation and slaughtering of cattle. Cow is considered to be holy in Hinduism. Butchering of cattle has been hurting the religious sentiments of people, he stated.

Ranjan stated that cases had been registered against 'Gau Rakshaks' or cow vigilantes who had fought against the illegal transportation of cattle.

“Filing cases against the protectors of cattle is condemnable. If the cases are not dropped, then there will be none to question the illegal cattle transporters,” he said adding that cases registered against various police stations against cow vigilantes must be dropped.
