Mysuru, Oct 22: At a time when the dust raised by former minister V Srinivasa Prasad's resignation is yet to settle, senior Congress leader and Planing Commission vice-chairman C M Ibrahim has made public his resentment against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

1cmHe said Siddaramaiah has failed to perform to people's expectations and felt that people will rate the performance of the governance in the coming elections. Stating that recent developments in the party has hurt him, Ibrahim said, “People are aware of what is going on around them and it is not possible to cheat people for a long time. A day will come when people will give them a befitting reply.”

Asked about V Srinivasa Prasad's resignation and a few senior leaders being cornered in the party, the former Union minister, who was in the city to inaugurate a jewellery mart on Friday, said they (the chief minister and the district minister) are big people. “They are like 5,000 MW high tension wire and people like us are 50 watt bulb,” he said.

When asked why he and others, who strove to make Siddaramaiah Chief Minister, are sidelined, Ibrahim said people know who is responsible for the success and failure of the government.

“I was the one who made an announcement that Siddaramaiah will be the next chief minister. We had high expectations and it is unfortunate that our hopes are shattered now,” he added.

However, Siddaramaiah who has another 18 months, should make efforts to give good governance, he said.

Recalling his association with Jayaprakash Narayan, former chief ministers Veerendra Patil, Nijalingappa and D Devaraj Urs, Ibrahim stated that they were never after power.

He defended his strong bonding and association with former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda by comparing the latter to a tulsi plant that is worshipped and also used as a herbal medicine. He prayed for Gowda's good health.

Ibrahim alleged that both the national parties did not put their souls into the Cauvery and Mahadayi disputes.

He said both the parties are likely to lose their ground in the state and hinted that like-minded people will come together in the near future.

Jan 28: Hindu temple processions with an elephant adorned in ornaments carrying the idol, with percussionists and devotees walking side by side, are no new sight in Kerala. However, a similar procession in Kerala's cultural capital, Thrissur, turned heads. Hundreds of Muslims were seen holding hands and clearing traffic to help the procession move smoothly.

Muslims made way for the passage of a Hindu temple procession during their protest against Citizenship Amendment Act(ACT) in Thrissur on Saturday, January 25.

Various Muslim organisations had organised a mass protest in the Swaraj ground in the town. On the same day, the local Bhaktapriyam temple's procession was also taking place. Stuck in a dilemma, the temple authorities approached the police and the Muslim organisations to find a solution. The Muslim organisations then promised to help proceed the temple procession without any obstacles.

Nearly a thousand people who had turned up for the protest volunteered to clear traffic and control the crowd so that the temple procession could smoothly pass through the town.

A video of the procession was shared on Facebook by the Thrissur City Police on Saturday, which showed Muslims holding hands on either side of the procession to make way.

"Humanity is bigger than religion. That's the lesson the residents of Thrissur are giving to the country. Thrissur is truly the cultural capital of Kerala," read the caption of the post in Malayalam. The video soon went viral and was viewed by over 36k views.

Bengaluru, Feb 20: The poultry industry is facing losses amid rumours of the discovery of a chicken infected with coronavirus in Bengaluru.

DK Kantharaju, president, Karnataka Cooperative Poultry Federation said, "Karnataka is facing losses of Rs 60 to 65 crores. The consumption percentage has also decreased by 30-35 per cent".

Atiq, a meat seller, said, "Because of coronavirus people are scared. But I want to say that chicken is safe to consume here. All this fear is caused due to fake news on social media."

Another person Abdul Hafeez said, "Chicken and coronavirus are not related. People are scared because of what is being spread on social media. The business has definitely gone down due to fear of coronavirus."

Bengaluru, Jan 21: A private hospital in Bengaluru, the capital of Karnataka, on Tuesday claimed that it has successfully performed a live liver transplant on a Jehovah's Witness from Nigeria, by not using blood or blood products, in order to protect the patient's religious beliefs.

It is said that Jehovah's Witnesses are followers of a Christian faith that prohibits the use of blood or blood products during their treatment. Gehojadak (37), a Jehovah's Witness follower, had developed decompensated liver disease and visited more than three countries seeking treatment over the last four years but was turned away by most doctors due to the highly risky nature of surgery, Aster CMI Hospital said.

The surgery was challenging compared to a normal liver transplant because in order to protect the patient's religious beliefs, the medical team could not use blood or blood products (Fresh frozen plasma, Cryoprecipitate, Platelets etc), it said in a release, adding that very few such surgeries have been successfully conducted worldwide.

The patient's brother was the donor, the hospital said, adding, without a liver transplant, Gehojadak's chances of survival were less than 10 per cent over the next two years. A team of liver specialists from the Hospital thoroughly reviewed the patient's medical history before recommending a bloodless liver transplant and charted out a feasible pathway to make the surgery a success.

"This transplant was especially challenging as we did not have the safety net (of using blood) even if the patient's life was at risk due to their advance directive. We have performed other non-transplant liver surgeries in Jehovah's Witnesses and this gave us the confidence to take on Gehojadak's transplant," Dr Rajiv Lochan, Consultant Liver Transplant Surgeon, said.

The critical surgery took a 12-hour period to complete where two teams of specialists with close to 25 doctors including anaesthetists, intensivists worked in absolute sync with each other and Gehojadak finally received a life-saving liver transplant, the Hospital said. In a period of two weeks, the patient and his brother were fit enough to go home and were discharged from the hospital.

"Even if their haemoglobin levels dropped to life-threatening levels, the patients were clear that they would not accept a blood transfusion. Keeping the limitations in mind, the most effective treatment path was planned, and we spent close to two months preparing the patients for surgery," Arun V, Consultant Anesthesiologist said. The hospital arranged customised artificial products like synthetic drug molecules, to conduct a bloodless liver transplant, he added.
