Mangaluru, Jan 20: Sri Vishwesha Theertha Swamiji, the chief pontiff of Pejawar Mutt, who was on a trip to Mantralayam in Andhra Pradesh suffered a back sprain due to a speed breaker on road while travelling in a car.

According to sources, the 86-year-old seer was on the way back from Mantralayam to Hyderabad on Friday when the incident took place. When the car reached Nandyal in Kurnool district, the driver failed to notice the speed breaker. The car jumped all of a sudden and this caused sprain at the seer’s back. 

After the first aid treatment, doctors found him fit to travel from Hyderabad to Udupi. The seer flew from Hyderabad to the Mangaluru International Airport and from there travelled to Udupi by car. He reached the mutt at around 10 am.

"It is a sprain. The seer seems to be fine. He has been advised bed rest for a week. The doctor hasn't prescribed any medication other than rest," said Pradeep Kumar Kalkura, president, DK Kannada Sahitya Parishad, who spoke to the seer after the incident.

Hubballi, Jan 6: Elected representatives of the BJP, Congress and JD(S) on Sunday decided to sink their differences and fight unitedly for Karnataka’s rightful share in the Mahadayi and Kalasa-Banduri water dispute with Goa.

The meeting convened by JD(S) MLC Basavaraj Horatti here saw participation of BJP ministers Prahlad Joshi and Jagadish Shettar, Congress and JD(S) lawmakers, among others.

After a 70-minute closed door meeting, MLC Horatti told reporters that they discussed the water dispute in detail and decided to take steps based on inputs from legal and technical experts on the rightful apportioning of water. “Today, we took the first big step towards the overall development of the region, unencumbered by political divisions,” he said.

Though the air was filled with a sense of jubilation as the issue had united seemingly hostile political parties on one side, a few activists expressed disappointment that the meeting failed to set a timeline to resolve the dispute.
