Multilingual actor Prakash Raj has taken objection to Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath’s insensitive remarks in poll-bound Karnataka wherein the latter apparently tried to divide society in the name of Tipu Sultan and Hanuman.

In a tweet, Prakash Raj said: "Yogi ji orders people of Karnataka “don’t celebrate tippu sultan in the land of hanuman” dear sir.. what’s your agenda again...#justasking" with a set of photos showing BJP functionaries and BS Yeddyurappa himself celebrating Tipu Jayanti, complete with the headgear Tipu was noted to wear.

Addressing a BJP rally in Hubballi on Thursday, Adityanath targeted the incumbent Congress government for celebrating Tipu Jayanti.

During his speech, Yogi said that "When Lord Hanuman is being worshipped across the country, the Congress government in Karnataka, the State known for Vijayanagar Empire, is promoting the worship of Tipu Sultan. The Congress is insulting our rich tradition. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah should have respected the feelings of the people while making statements about beef consumption. With continuous murder and poor law and order situation, 'Rakshak' has become 'Bhakshak' here, and anarchy is prevailing."

Bengaluru, Mar 10: With concerns growing by the day, the Karnataka government is readying three more labs to test throat swab samples.

Currently, only two labs in Bengaluru — National Institute of Virology and Virus Research and Diagnostics Laboratory (VRDL) lab attached to Bangalore Medical College and Research Institute — are categorised biosafety level 2+, a requirement for coronavirus tests.

Now, the government is working on upgrading three more labs, one each in the government medical colleges at Hassan, Mysuru and Shivamogga. “The labs will be ready within one week,” the authorities said.

Currently, the labs are testing only throat swab samples of suspected patients and taking 24 hours to give the results. “A patient’s blood sample will be collected only if he or she tests positive for covid-19 infection in the first throat swab sample.

While earlier the state would send all samples of suspected coronavirus cases to NIV, Pune, the two labs were upgraded to biosafety level 2+ in mid-February.
