Bengaluru, Jul 6: JD(S) leader H D Kumaraswamy on Wednesday held Chief Minster Siddaramaiah responsible for the closure of bars along national highways within Bengaluru city.hdk

The Supreme Court order on the closure of bars came in December last year. The chief minister, who also holds the Excise portfolio, was, however, in a deep slumber for six months. He held the first meeting with the owners of liquor shops and officials only on Tuesday. Revenue loss to the state exchequer due to the closure of bars is estimated at Rs 5,000 crore per annum, if the bars remain closed permanently, he told reporters. The JD(S) leader was speaking after meeting the party workers at JP Bhavan here.

The government has already announced farm loan waiver. “How will it mobilise resources to implement the loan waiver if the bars are closed permanently? Is this the way to run the government? He (chief minister) is only issuing irresponsible statements against Opposition parties,” the former chief minister said.

Kumaraswamy also accused the ruling party of mobilising funds for the next Assembly elections. “We have come to know that the government is meddling with the preparation of 2031 master plan of Bengaluru.

Permission is being given recklessly for change of land use around Bengaluru. The chief minister is letting down the interest of the state, he charged.

Probe sought

Kumaraswamy demanded that the state government should order a probe into irregularities in the Energy department, especially in bidding for solar power generating units and power purchase. Though a legislature committee has been set up to look into irregularities in the department in the past 10 years, it is unlikely to bring out the truth, he added.

The total debt accumulated by the five electricity supply companies because of purchase of power is Rs 16,000 crore, he said.

‘CM under illusion’

Kumaraswamy said performance of the JD(S) in the byelections to various wards of urban local bodies has proved that the party is a force to reckon with in the state. The ruling party has lost badly. “The Congress candidate in a Mysuru City Corporation ward has lost his deposit in the bypoll. Still, chief minister thinks that the Congress will come back to power in the next Assembly elections. This clearly shows that the chief minister is under illusion,” he added.

Mangaluru, Jan 29: Days after some youths allegedly threatened to 'behead' local MLA and former Karnataka minister U T Khader during a pro-CAA rally here, the Dakshina Kannada district unit of the Congress on Wednesday urged the police to register a case against the culprits.

A video of the incident that went viral on social media showed the youths raising slogans that they will "cut off his limbs and chop off his head if necessary" during the rally organised by the BJP in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act on Monday.

Addressing reporters here, District Congress Committee president Harish Kumar demanded that the police register a case on their own against the youths. He said if prompt action was not taken against the youths seen in the video, the Congress will launch an agitation before the office of the Commissioner of Police.

When asked by reporters about the video, Khader had on Tuesday brushed aside the threat, saying he had not taken it seriously. The MLA had also said he did not file a complaint with police as he had concern for the families of the youths.

Bengaluru, Jun 17: Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa has directed Minorities Department officials to take steps for tabling the Karnataka Lokayukta report on alleged irregularities in wakf properties in Karnataka, during the next session of the State legislature.

Following the Anwar Manipaddi report on alleged irregularities in wakf properties, the Lokayukta conducted the probe. The Siddaramaiah government rejected both the Anwar Manipaddi report and the Lokayukta report.

The Chief Minister issued the directions to officials during a review of the department works on Tuesday, said an official press release. The Lokayukta reportedly named several Congress leaders and senior officers in the scam.

The Lokayukta conducted the probe and submitted the report containing 15 volumes to the State government during the Siddaramaiah government’s tenure.

Bengaluru, Aug 2: Bengaluru based Centre for Advanced Research and Development (CARD), the research wing of organisation De scalene has come up with a device called "SHYCOCAN" (Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon) which neutralizes the coronavirus.

Speaking to news agency Dr Rajah Vijay Kumar, Chairman, Organisation De Scalene said that the device will not kill any bacteria or fungus, however, neutralizes the coronavirus particles.

"The device was tested for its safety and efficacy and is soon going to be manufactured and marketed in the US under the Enforcement Discretion policy of USFDA and in Europe as the device is CE compliant and is CE marked," said Kumar.

He also added the device will cover a volume of 10,000 cubic feet.

The device Scalene Hypercharge Corona Canon (SHYCOCAN) is intended to be used in the residential, industrial and commercial environment and is designed for active containment by attenuation of Corona family of viruses. (Laboratories de Especialidades Immunological S.A. de C.V, Virucidal Activity concludes 99.9 per cent virus elimination), Kumar asserted.

"SHYCOCAN operates on regular 110/240V - 50/60 Hz wall socket and is a plug and play device, that delivers the necessary signals to a photon mediated electrons emitters (PMEE), that produces hypercharge high-velocity electrons by photon mediation that interacts with the negative seeking S-protein of Corona family of viruses thus reducing infectivity and prevent air and surface borne transmission of corona family of viruses," said Kumar.

The device does not use any chemicals, or any other consumables and does not produce harmful ozone gas or any other substances and is completely safe for use in any environment, he added.

"The attack mechanism of the Virus starts with the initial attachment of the virion to the host cell, it is initiated by interactions between the S-protein and its receptor on the "negative" cell membrane. The sites of receptor binding domains (RBD) within the S1 region of a coronavirus S-protein vary depending on the virus. 

The S-protein/receptor interaction is the primary determinant for a coronavirus to infect a host species and governs the tissue tropism of the virus. However, the end result is the fusion and release of the viral genome into the cytoplasm," said Kumar.

He continued saying that the counter mechanism by the device SHYCOCAN is that if negative seeking is the guidance mechanism of the S- Protein, attracted by the transmembrane potential of the host cells, then breaking this mechanism would block the Coronavirus infectivity and spread.

"The device has been in use for more than a year at the S-CARD campus, the headquarters of Scalene," said Kumar.
