Mangaluru, Jul 12: In a bizarre incident, a taluk panchayat member allegedly assaulted a doctor at Kokkada village near Dharmasthala after the latter asked the former to be cautious while driving.

Dr Ganesh Bhat (48), an Ayurvedic practitioner, who suffered nose injuries in the attack, got admitted to a private hospital in Nelyadi.

According to Dr Bhat he had been to a temple on Monday morning in his car. Lakshminarayana T M, a member of local taluk panchayat, too had visited the same temple

While returning from the temple, Lakshminarayana moved his vehicle out in the reverse direction rashly without noticing Dr Bhat's car. However, Dr Bhat averted the collision by moving his vehicle aside.

After this, Dr Bhat asked the TP member to be cautious while driving in the reverse direction.

Angered over this, Mr. Lakshminarayana allegedly barged into the former's clinic and assaulted him at around 4 p.m.

Dr. Bhat said that he got admitted to hospital after his nose started bleeding and he had severe body ache following the assault.

A complaint has been filed with the Dharmasthala police, he added.

Bengaluru, Apr 8: In another incident of health staff involved in coronavirus containment facing trouble, two ASHA workers were allegedly manhandled at Kudachi in Belagavi district in Karnataka on Tuesday while undertaking a survey following detection of four COVID-19 cases with Tablighi links in the area, police said.

The district authorities have intensified door-to-door survey in Kudachi after four people who had attended the Tablighi Jamat religious conference in New Delhi last month tested positive for coronavirus in nearby Raibagh.

“Today when two ASHA workers went to Kudachi, some miscreants snatched away their phones. We are investigating whether they were beaten up also,” a police officer investigating the matter told PTI.

A few days ago, four ASHA workers here were manhandled when they went for a door-to-door survey and police have arrested five people from a minority community. They have been remanded to judicial custody by a court.

Former prime minister H D Deve Gowda had on Monday condemned incidents of attacks on doctors and health department workers and sought protection for them.
