Hassan, Jan 19: In an apparent case of reckless riding, a local leader of Bajrang Dal died after falling off his two-wheeler near Arsikere on Wednesday night. While the police call it an accident, the Hindutva outfits have raised suspicion it was a murder.

According to sources, Sunil (28), Bajrang Dal district co-convenor, was returning from Guthinakere jathre on his motorbike, when he lost balance and met with an accident around 11.45 pm.

He is believed to have lost control of the two-wheeler due to over-speeding. He fell with the vehicle and sustained serious injuries to his left shoulder and head. He bled to death due to serious head injuries, said the police.

“Preliminary analysis of the scene suggests that he died in an accident. The damage caused to the two-wheeler and the injuries on his body suggest this,” said an Arsikere police source. Deputy Superintendent of Police Sadanand Tippannavar and Circle Police Inspector Siddarameshwar visited the spot.

However, the saffron activists and relatives of Sunil have alleged that it was a murder. They claimed that Sunil was actively involved in Bajrang Dal activities and was murdered as a result.

His father Ranganath, a former member of the Arsikere City Municipal Council, has filed a complaint with the Arsikere Rural Police. On his demand, the police shifted the body to Hassan, where the autopsy was done. The police also permitted the RSS workers to keep the body for public viewing at their office.

A case has been registered on charges of rash driving causing hurt or injury (Section 279 of the IPC) and causing death by negligence (304 A).

Mysuru, May 19: Union Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Tuesday announced the results of garbage free-star rating for Indian cities.

He said that Ambikapur in Chhattisgarh, Rajkot in Gujarat, Mysuru in Karnataka, Indore in Madhya Pradesh and Navi Mumbai in Maharashtra have got a five-star rating.

Puri extended the wishes to the cities who got a five-star rating and said it came at a time when the entire world, including India, are reeling under the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.

"It was the intention of my senior colleagues and others to declare the result of star rating of garbage-free cities much earlier but we decided to postpone because we wanted at least some degree of opening to take place and we thought the timing is correct," Puri said.

The minister said that of all the flagship programmes Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced, Swachta Mission is the most important programme for him.

"I have often shared with you my assessment that of all the flagship programmes that the Prime Minister had announced after the 2014 election results. But my personal view, a view I have had a citizen and certainly a view that is fortified by my experience as Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs, that the Swachta Mission by far is the most important programme of all the missions," Puri said

Bengaluru, Aug 7: Amid the rising number of COVID-19 cases in Karnataka, the state's health department issued fresh guidelines for the disposal of bodies of COVID patients.

"Although an increased risk of COVID infection from a dead body to health workers or family members who follow standard precautions while handling the body is unlikely, the lack of scientific data requires the utmost care to avoid the inadvertent spread of COVID-19 during these times," the statement from the health department's press release read, emphasising on the dignity of the dead and the religious and cultural tradition.

The 23-page press release elaborated on guidelines regarding testing, handling of dead bodies and other specificities in relation to the management of COVID-19 bodies.

"Testing should not be insisted in every case of death, but only when they have a recorded history of influenza-like symptoms. The body should be handed over to the family members/ relatives in a dignified manner immediately after swab collection and hospitals should provide handouts with a list of dos and don'ts in English and Kannada laying down relevant information," the statement said.

It added, "At the mortuary, health care workers, mortuary staff and the family of the deceased body shall not come in direct contact with the dead body and must wear full personal protective equipment (PPE). If the family or relative are for any reason unable to cremate or bury the body, the local health authority shall arrange for the dignified last rites as per the religious traditions of the family."

Regarding autopsies (post mortem) on COVID-19 bodies, the state department said that they should be avoided, except in necessary circumstances.

The statement also gave detailed guidelines regarding the appropriate recording of COVID-19 deaths in line with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) guidelines.

Additionally, the health department made a statement about the admission procedure for COVID positive patients referred by other district administrations saying, "It is now mandatory for all the referrals from the BBMP admission and discharge of COVID positive patients to be done through the online COVID Hospital Bed Management System (CHBMS)."

The state's count of coronavirus cases was 1,51,449 in the past 24 hours.

So far, a total of 2,804 people have died due to COVID-19 in the state, while the average recovery rate in Karnataka is 49.3 per cent.
