Tumkur, Sep 23: : Five members of a family, including two children, were killed on Sunday when their car careened off National Highway 48, near Gavimatha, Kunigal in Tumkur district, and fell off a bridge.

The dead are Manjunath, 36, his wife Anitha, 28, Pushpalatha, 24, Preetham, 4, and an eight-month-old infant. All are from Bagalagunte in Bangalore.

The family, travelling in a Maruti Swift car, were returning after attending a relative's marriage in Chennarayapatna on Saturday. The car was speeding when its tyre burst and the driver lost control over the vehicle when it was moving on the bridge. The car hit the parapet wall of the bridge and fell into the 12-foot-deep ditch.

Pushpalatha, Preetham and the infant died on the spot. Manjunath and Anitha succumbed to injuries later in a nearby hospital.

Bengaluru, Jul 20: The Karnataka Congress on Monday slammed the State government's decision to distribute beds used by COVID-19 patients to Government-run hostels and called it as a "ridiculous" decision.

"It's ridiculous that the Govt plans to distribute beds used by COVID patients to Govt run hostels," read a tweet from the Karnataka Congress president DK Shivkumar.

He further said that the Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa should give these beds to his ministers, MLAs and officials.

He further went on to urge parents and students to speak "against this move" by the State government.

"Let CM @BSYBJP give these beds to his Ministers, MLAs & Officials! We are launching a movement against this Govt & appeal to parents, students & youths to speak against this move," Shivkumar's tweet read further.

Along with the tweet he also shared a video as well.

Karnataka reported 3,648 COVID-19 cases and 72 deaths on Monday, taking active cases to 42,216 and death toll to 1,403. Bengaluru recorded the highest number of cases and deaths today at 1,452 & 31, respectively, said the State Health Department.
