The Minister said the police should conduct a probe into the links between the accused, Bharat, and Mr. Bhat.

Addressing presspersons here on Sunday, Mr. Khader said according to the police, Bharat, of Bantwal, is one among the two prime accused in the murder of the activist and an autorickshaw driver Ashraf Kalai, 35. Bharat is said to be associated with a Hindutva group. Mr. Bhat had conducted a meeting in the city in connection with a May 26 incident at Kalladkka. Photographs showing Bharat sharing the dais with Mr. Bhat have been published in newspapers. The Minister said this has proved the allegation by the Congress that Mr. Bhat is linked to the untoward incidents in Kalladkka and Bantwal taluk.

Mr. Khader added that the BJP had conducted a block-level meeting in Boliyar in Mangaluru taluk in the evening a day before the activist was murdered. The police should also find out if there was any link between the murder and the meeting.

The lack of Muslilm unity is main cause....
The happenings in India is against Islam.
Muslims must join with a chain without any Political or religious parties. Each muslim house have to have heavy loaded Gu s to shoot or destroy the people who enters your house any time without your permission (like it happened in bantwal taluk before few days) and also each muslim must carry for their protection.

Bengaluru, Aug 6: No private hospital in Karnataka can turn away a patient without attending to him or her, irrespective of the Coronavirus status, an official has said.

"Private medical establishments shall not deny treatment and admission to any patient approaching the establishment irrespective of the fact that such patient may or may not be suffering from Covid-19," an official from the state Health and Family Welfare Department said on Wednesday.

Likewise, no private hospital can insist on a patient for a Covid-19 test report, said the official invoking the Disaster Management Act.

"The establishments also cannot insist for Covid test report," he said, directing all private hospitals to strictly abide by their responsibilities.

According to the department, it is the duty of every private hospital to provide first aid and take lifesaving steps when any patient approaches it.

"It is the duty of every private medical establishment to provide first aid and take lifesaving measures to stabilise the patient," he said.

The department also invoked statutes from Karnataka Medical Establishments Act 2017, under sections 11 and 11 (A) to drive home the message.

The directives assume significance at a time when several cases of private hospitals denying admissions and fleecing patients across the state have emerged.

"It has been noticed that some of the private hospitals are refusing treatment and admission to emergency patients, causing distress and this has resulted in complications, leading to death in certain cases," said the official.

The district authorities have been directed to take action on the erring hospitals as the department reiterated the responsibilities of private medical establishments.
