Udupi, Aug 21: Vishwesha Tirtha Swami, the pontiff of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt was shifted to the Intensive Care Unit after a successful surgical procedure for hernia at Kasturba Hospital in Manipal on Sunday.

Meanwhile, a group of Muslims offered prayers at the entrance of Kasturba Hospital seeking good health for the seer.

Raghuram Acharya, Dewan of Pejawar Mutt, said that the 87-year-old Vishwesha Tirtha completed the Maha Puja at the Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple in the morning. Afterwards, he left for the Kasturba Hospital.

He was taken to the Operation Theatre at the hospital at11.30 a.m. After the operation, he was shifted to the ICU at around 1 p.m.

“The doctors who operated upon the seer told us that the latter had cooperated well. The seer would be shifted to a special room in the hospital on Monday morning. The doctors said that they would decide on when to discharge the seer from the hospital after 11 a.m. on Monday,” he said.

“The seer spoke to us. He is in good spirits. He expressed happiness over the services rendered by the doctors at the hospital,” he added.

Vishwaprasanna Tirtha Swami, junior seer of Pejawar Mutt, met and spoke to Vishwesha Tirtha at the hospital in the evening. In the absence of the senior seer, Vishwaprasanna Tirtha is performing the “pujas” at the Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple.

Tradition bars the Paryaya seer from leaving the Car Street during his two-year tenure, when he occupies the Paryaya Peetha, also called the Sarvajna Peetha, at the 800-year-old Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple. Even when the Paryaya seer suffers from minor health ailments, doctors meet him and treat him. However, in the present case, the matter involved a surgical procedure.

“Usually, the Paryaya seer does not leave the Car Street. But this is a special case. Hence, the opinion of the other seers of the Ashta Mutts (or eight mutts) available was taken and they agreed that the Pejawar seer should go to the hospital for the surgical treatment,” Mr. Acharya further said.

In the morning, a Dhanvantri Homa was performed and a group of disciples under the guidance of Vishwaprasanna Tirtha chanted mantras at the Rajangana Hall here praying for the good health of Vishwesha Tirtha.

Bengaluru, Jul 29: Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Tuesday criticised BJP-led Karnataka government for limiting or omitting various topics including chapters on 18th century Mysore ruler Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali.

Speaking to media here at Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) office, Shivakumar said Congress will not allow BJP government in Karnataka to "divert history".

"Tipu Sultan does not belong to one caste or a class. He is part of the history of this country. BJP government has removed chapters related to him for its political advantage. It is their decision whether they celebrate Tipu Sultan Jayanti or not, but he is part of our history. 

The President of this country Ramnath Kovind came to the Vidhan Sabha and praised Tipu's patriotism during a joint session," Shivakumar said.

"The BJP government has come to power today. Our history should not change. We will not let these people to covert or dilute history. This is the stand of the Congress party. Our experts will study the pros and cons of this decision," he added.

Shivakumar further said many countries around the world have praised the Constitution, Indian history and expressed their willingness to "adapt it".

"But the BJP is trying to curtail this. We need to educate our children. Our team will also study this and we will not let this happen," he said.
The Karnataka government, in a bid to reduce the syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent, has limited or omitted various topics including chapters on Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 social science textbook.

The reduction in syllabus comes as schools are closed to prevent the spread of coronavirus in the state, and classes have been moved online.
The Department of Public Instruction of the Karnataka government also limited or removed various other topics from the syllabus of class 6 to 10 as they were repeated or can be alternatively taught.

Earlier, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had revised the syllabus for the classes IX to XII for the academic session 2020-21 in a "one-time measure" owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bengaluru, Apr 27: Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda on Monday demanded that the Karnataka government announce a special package for farmers who are on the verge of quitting agriculture as their profession following losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Please announce special package for the farmers to bail them out of the loss due to the lockdown.

Drop many of the schemes in the budget but don't leave the farmers in distress," Gowda said in his letter to Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The JD(S) supremo said the way relief has been announced for the milk producers by procuring the unsold milk and distributing it to the slum dwellers, the same assistance should be provided to the farmers of the state.

"If you don't come forward to assist the farmers, then they will be forced to sell their land," Gowda cautioned the Chief Minister.

The former prime minister said the farmers are on the verge of falling in the debt trap and may be compelled to take the extreme step of suicide due to the losses.

Gowda said the farmers are unable to sell their crop because they are not getting proper price for their produce and are selling their crop at a throwaway price to minimise their losses.

"In just one month farmers reached the brink of bankruptcy as they are unable to sell the standing crops in lakhs of acres of land," Gowda said.

The JD(S) supremo has been championing the cause of farmers in the state and highlighting their sufferings.

On April 3 Gowda has appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to look into the plight of farmers, labourers and the middle class people due to the lockdown.

"In such times of crisis, we should see to it that there is no disruption in farming activities by ensuring proper marketing channels to agricultural produce, especially perishables.

Only then we can sustain our long battle against this pandemic," Gowda said in a tweet.
