SDPI and PFI have terror ties; Congress govt in Karnataka protecting them: Lekhi

Mysuru, Apr 26: BJP’s national spokesperson and member of the parliament, Meenakshi Lekhi, has expressed concern over reports that chief minister Siddaramiah led government has been protecting Popular Front of India and Social Democratic Party of India.

Speaking to media persons here on Wednesday Lekhi said that SDPI and PFI are not only anti-social elements but also have ties with terror organizations such as Taliban and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen. “The government is protecting jihadi elements,” she added.

"Law and order have collapsed in the state and the government failed to take action against the suspects in the murders of BJP and RSS workers. The police have failed to investigate the murders of writers Gauri Lankesh and M M Kalburgi. But the government is using the issue as a political weapon," she said.

"The Congress government, led by Siddaramaiah, is indulging in 'divide and rule' politics on the basis of religion and caste. As the Congress is playing politics on caste basis, it has become inevitable for the BJP to face the elections on Hindutva strategy. Besides, Siddaramaiah’s government is the most corrupt in the country," she said.

The opposition parties are politicising the rape and murder of a girl reported in Kathua of Jammu. “Why is the opposition not raising voice against the rapes reported in Congress-ruled states. A rape is a rape and a murder is a murder. Instead of ensuring justice to the victims, it is unfortunate that such issues are being used for political gains,” she said.

Switch over to eyeglasses from contact lenses until corona subsides: Dr Bhujang Shetty

News Network

April 11,2020

Bengaluru, Apr 10: Renowned ophthalmologist and Narayana Nethralaya Chairman Dr K Bhujang Shetty today advised those wearing contact lenses to switch to eyeglasses as a preventive measure.

“Though the facial mask is mandatory as a preventive measure against the dreaded Coronavirus, not many know that the virus can also enter the body through eyes. Wearing glasses or spectacles reduces the spread of the virus,” Dr Bhujang Shetty said.

Although it is more likely that people may catch Coronavirus infections through mouth and nose, there are chances of the virus also entering through eyes. “In a day, humans tend to touch their face and eyes almost 20 times an hour knowingly or unknowingly. Users of contact lenses end up touching their eyes and face frequently, increasing the risk of infections. Therefore, it is advisable that they switch to eyeglasses until the situation improves”, according to a release here on Friday.

Mangaluru | Covid safety norms flouted during new Gurupura bridge inauguration

coastaldigest.com news network

June 12,2020

Mangaluru, Jun 12: A huge crowd gathered for the grand opening of the newly built 175-metre-long two-lane bridge across Phalguni River on National Highway 169 near Gurupura on the outskirts of the city today.

Even as the photos of the bridge inauguration ceremony went viral on social media, netizens took the elected representatives and the district administration to task for flouting safety norms at a time when the coronavirus cases are continuing to mount in coastal Karnataka.

The bridge was completed in a record time of 15 months. Dakshina Kannada MP and State BJP President Nalin Kumar Kateel and district in-charge Minister Kota Srinivas Poojari inaugurated the bridge in the presence of Mangaluru City North MLA Y. Bharath Shetty and others.

The bridge has come as a breather to thousands of travellers between Mangaluru-Moodbidri-Karkala on the busy NH. The age-old steel bridge had become dilapidated and was a cause for concern for road users. The highway is also under the process of getting widened to four lanes.

The bridge was constructed at an estimated cost of Rs 30 crore by contractor Sudhakar Shetty of Mugrodi Construction. Work started in February last and the contractor had time till February next.

While the two-lane carriageway is 16 metres wide, the bridge has 2.5-metre-wide pedestrian paths on both the sides. New approach roads of 500 metres each were also part of the project.
