Manjeshwar, July 28: A girl who is supposed to be scaling the ladder of higher education after completing SSLC has been stuck by a painful disease, making her poverty stricken life even more painful.

Daughter of Poovappa Belchad, a coolie worker, and Chandravathi of Kedumbaadi, Vorkady, 16 year old Pavithra is walking around with the weight of a huge tumor on her head.

A student of Kunjatthoor Government Higher Secondary School, Pavithra was good at studies. A swelling was noticed on her head, after which she was taken to the local doctor the very same day. However, the swelling kept growing with every passing day.

In spite of several attempts, Pavithra's parents were not able to get her ailment treated. Amidst poverty, they admitted her to a private hospital in Mangalore in December. She even recovered to some extent and even wrote her SSLC exams. However, doctors advised her parents to take her to NIMHANS, Bangalore for further treatment. Owing to their financial limitations, they could not take her to Bangalore. Unable to clear off the debts of treatment expenses already incurred, Pavithra's brother discontinued his studies and accompanied his father as a coolie worker. In spite of a surgery, a tumor developed on the rear side of her head and continued to swell. The family is struggling to take her to Bangalore to get her ailment treated. Pavithra has been experiencing severe pain with the weight of the tumor on her head. She is finding it difficult to sit, sleep and carry out her day to day activities.

She is reportedly suffering from a cancer called sarcoma of skull, and if her illness is not addressed to in time, it could turn out to be dangerous for her say her doctors.

Bengaluru, Jan 21: Karnataka Chief Minister's political adviser MP Renukacharya has courted controversy yet again with his remarks targeting the Muslim community at a pro-CAA rally in Karnataka on Monday.

Addressing a rally in support of the new citizenship law, the BJP lawmaker accused Muslims of collecting weapons in mosques instead of praying. "There are few traitors who sit in a masjid and write fatwas. They collect weapons inside the mosque instead of praying. Is this why you want a Masjid," Renukacharya said on Monday.

Renukacharya said he won't hesitate to use the money allotted to Muslims for Hindus. "I will resort to such politics in my taluk where the money allotted for Muslims can be used for Hindus. I will put you [Muslims] in your place and show what politics is," said Renukacharya, who is a close aide of CM BS Yediyurappa.

This is not the first time a Karnataka BJP leader has made communal remarks targeting the minority community. Earlier, BJP MLA Somashekar Reddy had made controversial remarks at a pro-citizenship law protest in Ballari when he asked those opposing the Citizenship (Amendment) Act to think of the "consequences" if the majority community members hit the streets against them.

The MLA had said, "If you do any drama, then if 100 per cent people come, understand what will be your situation. Congress people are lying to you, believing them you are coming on streets. We are 80 per cent, you are 17 per cent, if we react, what will be your situation? Be careful," Reddy had said.

Following outrage, a case was filed against Somashekar Reddy for alleged provocative speech targeting those protesting against the amended citizenship law.
