Kasargod, Dec 22: At least ten Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers, including the party's SC/ST Morcha president P. Sudheer, were injured after a group of persons, allegedly Communist Party of India (Marxist) workers, attacked them at Cheemeni town on Wednesday. Two police personnel were also injured in the attack.

clashThe attack came as Mr. Sudheer was addressing a meeting in connection with the demonetisation of high-value currency notes. A police team, led by Cheemeni SI M.Sreedharan, tried to disperse the crowd. In the melee, Mr. Sreedharan and constable Shaju suffered injuries.

The injured BJP workers were admitted to a hospital at Ramnagar in Kanhangad.

Mr. Sudheer, a lawyer, had held talks with the displaced tribesmen of Malathumpara Colony at Periye, who were on a hunger strike in front of the Central University of Kerala seeking jobs for those who had to vacate their land for the university.

The local CPI(M) leadership, including K. Kunhiramaan, MLA, had been insisting that the university provide jobs to one of the eligible family members who had to vacate their land for the university. Sources here said Mr. Sudheer's talks with the tribespeople explaining the difficulties in acceding to their demands led to the attack, sources said.

The police have registered cases under various IPC sections in connection with the attack.

Three injured

In a separate incident, three youths were injured, one seriously, in a clash involving two groups at Cherkala, near Kasargod.

Those injured were identified as Noufal, 24, Muhammed Hashim, 22, and Abdul Shihab, 25.

While the seriously injured Noufal was rushed to a hospital in Mangaluru, the others were being treated at the General Hospital here, a senior officer at the Vidhanagar police station said.

The incident followed an altercation over bathing in a stream at Edaneer earlier in the day, the police said. Kasaragod Town SI K. Ajith Kumar sustained injuries after he fell into a ditch while giving chase to youths allegedly involved in the clash.

The police have taken two youths into custody in connection with the incident.

Frustrated BJP is trying for public disturbance all over india and particularly in Kerala. Police should take harsh action on these goondas and arrest them. These are jobless goons and are trying to loot from public property by creating disturbance. I appreciate kerala police for taking appropriate action against this anti nationals.

Bengaluru Jul 29: There will be a centralised system in place in Karnataka to classify asymptomatic, symptomatic and mild symptomatic persons and recommend treatment based on the severity of the cases, said Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar on Tuesday here.

"Various existing apps related to COVID-19 will be brought under one platform to get real-time information which will assist in strategising allocation of hospitals/beds to the needy. This will probably remove the delay in bed allocation and treatment which is being faced now. The patients will get all information in one phone call," Dr Sudhakar said.

Sudhakar spoke with a team of experts from the government and Infosys.

Referring to a company by name Step 1, which is providing such services in Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, the Minister said that a similar system will be implemented in the state as well.

"This company is having a team of doctors and nurses which is guiding the people whether they need hospital treatment or home isolation after they are tested positive for COVID-19. More than 70 per cent of the positive cases are being asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and are advised to go for home isolation," the minister said.

"The load on the hospitals is reduced and severe cases can be administered proper treatment. Infosys co-ordinates with the government to provide technical support for this system," Dr Sudhakar added.

Earlier during the day, the minister held a video conference with the heads of private medical colleges to review COVID preparedness.
The government has already passed guidelines to allocate 50 per cent of hospital beds for COVID patients.

Bengaluru, Jul 5: Day after a Covid-19 patient died on a road near his home waiting for an ambulance for nearly two hours, Bengaluru civic body commissioner on Saturday offered his unconditional apology for the tragic incident.

Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagar Palike (BBMP) Commissioner BH Anil Kumar met the family of the 55-year-old Covid-19 victim who died unattended on the roadside on Friday and apologised on behalf of the BBMP.

BH Anil Kumar also appealed to citizens to not stigmatise coronavirus patients and their families.

"Met the family of the Covid victim in Gavipuram who was left unattended on the roadside. Offered an unconditional apology on behalf of the BBMP as our staff could have handled the situation in a better manner. Appeal to citizens not to stigmatise Covid-19 patients & families," BH Anil Kumar said in a tweet.

In one of the pictures tweeted by BH Anil Kumar, he can be seen standing with folded hands in front of the deceased Covid patient's family.

The 55-year-old man was getting treatment at his house after he developed breathing issues. However, his condition worsened after his Covid-19 report came positive. His wife then informed the hospital and requested an ambulance.

His family members decided to take him to the hospital by an autorickshaw as the ambulance was getting late. However, the man collapsed on the street as soon as he stepped out of his house.
