Mangalore, December 11: The new Deputy Commissioner of Dakshina Kannada district had few words of appreciation for port city of Mangalore as far as cleanliness is concerned.

 

Launching the massive cleanliness awareness campaign, organised by Mangalore City Corporation (MCC), Malabar Gold and Diamonds, Prajna Counselling Centre, Kankanady and Prerana Mahila Swasahaaya Sanghagala Okkoota, Mangalore aimed to make the district clean and plastic-free, at a programme at Town hall on Monday, DC N Prakash said that for him, Mangalore appears to be very clean after having seen the garbage mess in State capital.

 

“People of Mangalore are intelligent and hygiene conscious. This sense of cleanliness makes a huge difference,” the DC said adding that though the city is in good condition, there is still scope for improvement.

 

Promising to extend full support to the City Corporation, the DC said that awareness needs to be disseminated among people so that concepts of cleanliness and sanitation get greater importance in the city.

 

Ombudsman for Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) in Dakshina Kannada N Sheena Shetty said that the attempts to clean and sanitise the district should be such that it attracts the attention of the entire world. Every individual should be inspired to take up the cause of cleaning the city. It is the people who have to bring change. Cleanliness has to come from people, through people. If every home in a village gets a compost pit and gets rid of the habit of using plastic bags, then there can be complete sanitation.

 

Awareness posters and eco-friendly bags were released on the occasion. Mangalore City Corporation Mayor Gulzar Banu presided over the programme.

 

Director of Prajna Counselling Centre Hilda Rayappan welcomed the gathering. MCC Commissioner Dr K Harish Kumar, Deputy Mayor Amithakala, Director of Malabar Gold and Diamonds Shaheen Parvez, Standing Committee for Public Health, Education and Social Justice President Bhaskar Chandra Shetty and Corporation in-charge Health Officer Dr Sudarshan were present.

 

The function was preceded by entertainment programmes, by women self-help groups.

Addressing the gathering activist B R Bhaskar Prasad said, he knows the RSS inside out as he was associated with it for a prolonged period.

He said the ultimate aim of RSS is to establish a casteist society in India with the micro-minority community of Brahmins having complete control over all other major communities. 

Lambasting Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah for constantly harassing people of India through back to back contentious legislations, he said that the duo poised to destroy the country.

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.
