Mangaluru, Aug 25: In spite of the massive hate-campaign against actor-turned-politician Ramya by saffron forces, thousands of her fans thronged Kadri grounds in the city where she was the chief guest for a musical event organized by the Kadri Cricketers' Club as part of Krishna Janmashtami celebrations on Thursday night.

Addressing the gathering, the former Mandya MP thanked the people of Manglauru for their love and hospitality and described them as “very sweet people”.

Ms Ramya, who was wearing Mangaluru jasmine, impressed the crowed by uttering a few words in Tulu, the local language of this port city. She went on to claim that people of Mangaluru treated her like their own daughter.

Meanwhile, a few miscreants owning allegiance to saffron groups hurled eggs, stones and footwear at the stage where Ramya was sitting. However, police managed to bring the situation under control and reportedly detained a couple of miscreants.

Forest minister B Ramanath Ra, food minister U T Khader, MLC Ivan D'Souza among others attend the event. However, Ms Ramya was not allowed to take part in Mosaru Kudike due to security reasons, it is learnt.

Prior to this a small group of protesters belonging to Sangh Parivar attempted to block Ramya's convoy at the exit road of the Mangaluru International Airport. They also hurled eggs at the convoy when she was coming out of the Airport.

Meanwhile, speaking to media persons Ms Ramya rubbished the allegations that she compared Mangaluru to hell. She said that media is quoting her out of context.

In the interview, she had said that if a region can be called hell' just because bad things such as murder happen there you can find hell in Mangaluru too where many murders took place. She also recalled the murder of Praveen Poojary, a BJP worker who was targeted by Hindu vigilantes for being involved in transporting cattle.

She was arguing that a place or country should not be called as hell' just because of the presence of some anti-social elements there. “I haven't seen hell,” she said.

Kottayam, Mar 31: A 91-year-old and 88-year-old senior citizen couple were discharged from the isolation ward of government medical college after getting treated from COVID-19 on Monday.

"It is a testimony to the dedication and expertise of the medical staff as well as the strength of the Kerala public health system. We shall overcome," Kerala Finance Minister Thomas Issac tweeted as he praised the healthcare services for treating the elderly couple considered as highly vulnerable to the contagious virus.

Apart from the two senior citizens, five others suffering from COVID-19 have also been treated and discharged from the hospital.
Thomas, 91, and his wife Mariyamma, 88, who were under treatment at the Kottayam Medical College were already suffering from various age-related problems. The 91-year-old had a heart attack and severe breathing trouble when he was under treatment.

"The aged couple based in Ranni in Pathanamthitta district had got infected with the virus after coming into contact with their son, wife and grandson who had arrived from Italy. COVID-19 was confirmed in them on March 8. They were admitted to Pathanamthitta hospital. However, they were shifted to the Medical College in Kottayam the very next day as their condition was critical," the Kerala government said.

The family will have to remain in home-quarantine for 14 more days.
