Mangaluru/Udupi, Jun 8: The district administrations in the twin coastal districts have declared two-day holiday for schools as the southwestern monsoon continued to unleash its fury in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi.

Though students went to schools in some places on Friday morning, they were sent back. On Saturday schools will remain shut owing to rains.

The southwest monsoon that entered the state two days ago, remained active throughout the night and rains continued to lash on Friday too. Many areas in Dakshina Kannada received  about 120 mm rain since Thursday morning till Friday early morning.

It may be recalled that a schoolgirl was washed away in the swelling waters of a stream at Padubidri in Udupi district when it rained heavily on May 29.

Bengaluru, Jun 28: Karnataka Minister for Medical Education Dr K Sudhakar faced criticism by netizens after he shared a TikTok video sent by his daughter and wife, who are currently undergoing treatment in a COVID-19 facility.

TikTok is a Chinese video-sharing social networking service owned by ByteDance, a Beijing-based internet technology company founded in 2012 by Zhang Yiming.

Dr Sudhakar’s father, his wife and daughter who tested positive for Covid-19 has been admitted to a designated facility and in order to make his birthday memorable, his daughter sent him greetings through TikTok video.

When the minister shared the TikTok video, people pointed out that the minister should know better and that he should urge his family to boycott the Chinese video-sharing platform and lead by example.

Many were miffed that a BJP leader put up a TikTok video at a time when tensions are running high between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.
