July 11, 2017

Bantwal, Jul 11: Even though the trouble hit areas of Dakshina Kannada are slowly returning to normalcy, the district administration has decided to extend the prohibitory orders for 10 more days in four taluks.bc road 1

As per the previous order of the district administration, the Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code will be ended at midnight on July 11 in Bantwal, Sullia, Puttur and Belthangady taluks that fall under the limits of Dakshina Kannada district police.

However, as part of precautionary measures, on Tuesday, the deputy commissioner issued a fresh order extending the ban orders till July 21.

The orders were initially enforced in Bantwal taluk on May 27 following skirmishes between two groups. Later it was extended to the four taluks as violence spread.

The murder of a Social Democratic Party of India worker at Benjanapadavu in Bantwal on June 21 escalated the tension forcing authorities to extend prohibitory orders.

The attack on RSS activist Sharath in BC Road on July 4 by unidentified miscreants and his death in a hospital on July 7 led to further exacerbation of the communal tension.

With the fresh extension, Bantwal taluk will complete 56 continuous days of being covered under the ban order. The Mangaluru city police commissionerate area has been exempted from the order, police said.

Bengaluru, Jul 22: Congress MLA Priyank Kharge has questioned the Karnataka government on the alleged breakdown of oxygen in the intensive care unit (ICU) at ESIC hospital in Kalaburagi, saying he had got complaints that eight persons who were on ventilators had died.

He asked the government if it is "deliberately" hiding something about the patients that were admitted in ESIC.

"I have got complaints that eight people who were on ventilators are dead in ESIC Kalaburagi because there was oxygen breakdown in ICU. ESIC has not been admitting patients as the issue has not been resolved. Nobody is confirming or denying it. Is the Government deliberately hiding something?" he asked.
Kharge also accused the government of not having adequate facilities to combat COVID-19 in different parts of the state.

"I hope I am wrong, but if it is a fact, this ascertains that the administration has lost control over Corona pandemic in the district. No addition testing centre. No beds are available. PPE Kits and medical waste is thrown in Gulbarga Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS)," he added.

According to the Union Health Ministry, there are 67420 COVID-19 cases in the state.
