Speaking to media persons in the city on Saturday the Congress veteran said that on the one hand BJP leaders in coastal Karnataka led people’s march against Yettinahole on the other hand BJP leaders from coastal Karnataka are leaving no stone unturned to impalement the project.

“While Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel claimed that he was leading a delegation to meet union ministers to convey the people’s concern over Yettinahole project, union minister DV Sadananda Gowda said that he was unaware of such a development. These leaders are in fact fooling people,” he lamented.

“The union government is trying to show thousands of hectares of forest land in Karnataka as baron lands with the intention of exploiting it in the name of dangerous projects. Unfortunately the Congress government which is ruling Karnataka also cooperating with the centre,” he alleged.

He also slammed the ministers from coastal Karnataka who are openly supporting the river diversion project.

Bengaluru, Feb 26: The police remand of student activist Amulya Leona Noronha, who was produced before a Magistrate, after a no-show at the Metropolitan Magistrate Court, was extended by 10 more days.

The Fifth Additional Metropolitan Magistrate at the Magistrate's home on Tuesday night had remanded her to police custody for 10 days, less than the 14 days asked for by the Special Investigative Team, considering that she has already spent over four days in judicial custody.

Amulya Noronha, a student of NMKRV College for Women, had raised pro-Pakistan slogans by shouting ''Pakistan Zindabad'' at an anti-CAA protest in Bangalore on 20th February following which the city police filed a case of sedition against her.

Bengaluru, May 30: People travelling to Bengaluru by flight or train must pay to get their Covid-19 tests done at designated private labs.

This is being done to improve the participation of private labs that have been approved by the Indian Council of Medical Research to do testing. Many of these labs are running at sub-optimal levels.

The new rule will also help the special categories of passengers and their attendants to leave early for home quarantine after giving the sample once the swab collection centres are established at airports and railway stations. The nodal officers at these places will coordinate in establishing the swab collection centres.

Each test will cost Rs 650 per sample. XCyton Diagnostics will cater to air passengers. Rail passengers will be tested at Neuberg Anand Reference Laboratory, Cancyte Technologies Pvt Ltd, Aster Labs, Narayana Hrudayalaya, Vydehi Hospital and Syngene International Ltd.
