Benagluru, May 19: Congress leader DK Shivakumar on Saturday said that neither his party nor Janata Dal (Secular) would allow a voice vote when Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa moves a trust motion.

“We’re not bacchas here. We’ve seen the Assembly for 30 years. There law is clear. We want division of votes. We will not allow a voice vote,” Shivakumar told reporters.

Two Congress MLAs - Anand Singh and Pratapgouda Patil - did not show up for the oath-taking ceremony on Saturday. “I’m confident they will come. When they come, I’m sure they’ll vote for us,” Shivakumar said.

The Congress leader also demanded a probe by the I-T department on the alleged offer made by Yeddyurappa’s son BY Vijayendra to the wife of a Congress legislator. The Congress released an audio clip in which Vijayendra is purportedly heard offering Rs 30 crore as bribe.

Guv didnt invite cong-jds to prove majority before oath taking.  Cong staged dharna. No use of that. Similar to that your experiences will be just numbers in front of BJP. For that Feku and his Indian 'Thanos' (Shah) will do some arrangements

Bengaluru, Jun 21: As many as 518 private hospitals and medical colleges empanelled under the Suvarna Arogya Suraksha Trust (SAST) have been allowed to treat Covid-19 patients in Karnataka amid rising cases, an official said on Saturday.

"These 518 institutions across the state empanelled under ABArK are permitted to admit and treat Covid patients as per government protocols and criteria," the health official said.

The private hospitals can treat patients only if referred by public authorities such as BBMP Commissioner, Health department Director, District Health Officers and others.

In Bengaluru, there are 44 such empanelled private facilities. The entire list is available at www.arogya.karnataka.gov.in and also on the Health Department's website.

The hospitals will be paid an appropriate package rate for Covid management, said the official.

The state has not barred private hospitals from treating Covid patients but they have to mandatorily report all positive cases.

"Due to increasing number of Covid cases in the state, it was decided to involve private hospitals in treatment of such patients," said Additional Chief Secretary Jawaid Akhtar.
