Udupi, Feb 11: Former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa loves and cares people, but incumbent chief minister Siddaramaiah is arrogant and corrupt, who lacks ethics, according to BJP leader and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje.

Speaking to media persons here on Saturday, she alleged that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah can go to any extent for vote bank gimmicks. "He has no ethics. The Congress government has failed utterly to offer pro-people governance," she claimed.

The BJP leaders, including former Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa, will be stay in slums in different parts of the state. The problems of the slum dwellers will be brought to the notice of the state government, she added.

She ridiculed that Congress government has failed to provide basic infrastructure facilities to the people in slums. There are nearly 2,500 slums in state, she said.

Karandalaje said that she is the first MP to get Rs 316 crore sanctioned under Central Road Funds (CRF) - Rs 133 crore was earmarked for Udupi and Rs 183 crore for Chikkamagaluru district for the year 2017-18. Earlier, Udupi received Rs 182 crore and Chikkamagaluru received 44.5 crore under CRF in the year 2016-17, she said.

She said she has raised the issue with the Union Transport Minister Nithin Gadkari over the slow workson the proposed Malpe-Athradi-Theerthalli national highway.

Regarding the incomplete work of the national highway at Padubidri junction, the MP said that the land acquisition in the area is pending and the deputy commissioner has been directed to complete the formalities at the earliest.

On the BJP's preparedness for the upcoming Assembly election, the MP said that the BJP is working tirelessly to revamp in all possible ways to counter the Congress.

She said the party's leaders, who are popular among the masses, are considered for the party tickets to contest and the party has been strengthened right from the booth level.

Awareness will be created on the failure of the Congress-led government among the voters, she charged.

Coming down heavily on AICC President Rahul Gandhi's state tour, she said, "Rahul Gandhi has finally realised the worth of God in his life. He has started the campaign from the constituency in Karnataka, wherein the candidate Anand Singh has also served the jail term, much to the dismay of Congress leaders who always censure BJP leaders for serving the jail term."

She said BJP national president Amit Shah will be visit the temple town after taking part in various programmes scheduled in Dakshina Kannada on February 20.

Yadgir, July 2: A fresh video of the health staff dragging the body of a Covid-19 victim and dumping it into a pit disgracefully has gone viral on social media.

The incident occurred in Yadgir district of Karnataka on Tuesday, just days after shocking visuals of bodies of Covid-19 victims being handled disrespectfully in Ballari district went viral.

In the fresh video, two persons with PPE suits can be seen dragging, hurling and dumping the dead body of a senior citizen who died of covid-19. The duo dragged the body using a wooden log inserted to both hands of a plastic body bag for nearly 300 meters.

After pulling till the pit, the body was heartlessly dumped including a wooden log. Several villagers were also seen in the video.

The victim was settled in Siravara in Raichur district, although he originally hailed from Yadgir. On Sunday he was busy overseeing his daughter' wedding that was first postponed due to lockdown.

According to a relative of the deceased, on Monday he complained of breathing problems following which an ambulance was called to carry him to Raichur Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS).

Raichur Deputy Commissioner (DC), R Venkatesh said he was brought dead to the hospital as he succumbed en-route. The family members were quarantined and the body was packed as per the protocols and sent to Yadgir as his family members informed that the victim is from the neighbouring district. "In Yadgir district he was swabbed and his test results came positive," DC informed.

As soon as residents of Honagera village learned about the arrival of the body, the family members were harassed asking them to not to bury the body in any of the fields in the village.

Sridevi, a relative of the deceased said "the locals assembled near our house and threatened consequences if the body was brought here. Fearing backlash, we asked the district authorities to perform the last rites in the farmland owned by the victim. But it is now saddening to see the video where the body was inhumanely dragged and dumped."

Meanwhile Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa on Wednesday (July 1, 2020) said that six staff members have been suspended in connection with the inhumane funeral of a man who died of COVID-19 in Balari district.

Mangaluru, Jul 31: Muslims across coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada today observed Eid al Adha following the safety guidelines issued by the government amidst covid-19 pandemic. 

While coastal Karnataka is celebrating the festival of sacrifice today, it will be observed in other parts of Karnataka and country tomorrow. 

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.
