Great and Godly work.Keep up the same spirit.I request schools and colleges to have atleast half an hour cleanliness classes for students.
Lets not be lifeless towrds our surroundings.
In Japan, they involve students from 5th grade and above in farming in the school premises.Potatoes,tomatoes are grown by students in the farm.Same vegetables are taken to school canteen for lunch .We need to implement farming classes in schools so that child gets encouraged in the agriculture field and help the farmers with new farming technologies etc.

Minister Sudhakar also directed officials to resolve the issue raised by a woman who had written to him about her struggle to take possession of the body of her father in St. Johns hospital, Madivala.

The hospital she claimed was charging money to hand over the body.

"It is inhuman on part of the hospital to refuse handover of the body. I came to know about this incident in the media and responded immediately to help out the woman," Dr. Sudhakar wrote in his tweet.

Karnataka has so far reported 74,598 active COVID-19 cases, according to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
