Mangalore, July 3: The district unit of Karnataka Komu Souharda Vedike (KKSV) has urged the central government to declare the undivided Dakshina Kannada district as a communally sensitive region besides implementing the Prime Minister's 15 point programme that deals with action against perpetrators of communal crimes.

Addressing media persons at a press meet in Mangalore on Tuesday, Suresh Bhat Bakrabail, President, KKSV, DK, said that incidents of disturbing peace in the region have been taking place on a regular basis in the district of late. The attack on Holy Hill prayer hall, attacks involving cow transportation issue at Jeppu, Kalladka and Kottara testify this, Mr. Bakrabail said.

Stating that 'Sanathan Sanstha', an organisation under the radar of National Investigation Agency (NIA), had organised a lecture on 'Hindu Rashtra' in one of the prestigious colleges of the city, besides distributing provocative literature and 'Hindu Rashtra' calenders, Mr. Bakrabail said that police and district administration are watching the proceedings as mere spectators.

Cases have been registered against the likes of Dr. Binayak Sen, K K Shahina, Soni Sori, Seema Azad besides other human rights activists and journalists but no action is being taken against communal forces who want to build a 'Hindu Rashtra', Mr. Bakrabail said.

K L Ashok, State Chief Secretary, KKSV, alleged that incidents of communal violence have been on the rise of late as BJP government is trying to divert people's attention away from its corruption and create a Hindu vote bank.

The central government must implement the 13th and 14th points of the Prime Minister's 15 point programme to tackle communal crimes immediately, he demanded. The points provide that impartial police officers must be appointed in communally sensitive areas. Controlling communal disharmony is one of the prime duties of the district SP. The points also provide that strict action be taken against perpetrators of communal violence and special courts be set up to handle such cases, Mr. Ashok said.

KKSV members P B D'Sa, Victor D'Silva, Mohammed Kakkinje, Kabir Ullal and others were present.

Bengaluru, May 29: A cost-effective state of the art glove box testing booth for swab collection was inaugurated by Karnataka Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar at Victoria hospital.

Inaugurating the specially designed booth for safer, easier and quicker testing, Medical Education Minister Dr Sudhakar said that the portable booths can be used at border check posts and hot spots.

"The testing method involves the collection of samples from inside a box of aluminium and glass. The suspected corona virus-infected individual, whose samples are being taken, has to walk up to the booth and stand in front of the glass exterior. The healthcare worker inside the kiosk collects the sample and then, follows the sanitisation process before proceeding to take the next sample. The collection process, fully contactless, gets over in five minutes," the Minister said.

Dr Sudhakar also said: "This booth significantly reduces manpower requirement and the need for PPE kits. The main advantages of this procedure are that it needs fewer healthcare workers and strictly adheres to the norms of social distancing. 

The booth is low-cost. Each model costs about Rs 15,000-20,000."
It is also portable and can be mounted on a vehicle and transported to any location.

It can be particularly useful for collecting samples in hot spots and border checkpoints, he added.
