bulbBengaluru, No 1: A 10-month-old baby girl swallowed an LED bulb with metal electrodes while her parents were arranging electric diyas outside for Diwali their house in Bengaluru.

When the child's mother saw the baby swallowing the bulb, she tried to remove it from her mouth but failed.

The contraption, which was about 5 centimetres long, caused breathing problems for the baby. She was rushed to Columbia Asia referral hospital in Yeshwantpur around 10 p.m.

Sai Prasad T.R., Senior Consultant, Paediatric Surgery, performed an emergency bronchoscopy to remove the contraption from the baby's trachea. “A chest X-ray revealed that the metallic foreign body had got stuck in her trachea.

The wires extended into the right main bronchus. Fortunately, the glass bulb did not break in the wind pipe,” he said, adding that the baby was discharged on Monday morning.

Bengaluru, Aug 3: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee working president Satish Jarakiholi on Sunday said that as per the party sources, state chief minister BS Yediyurappa has got only six months' time and there are different teams working against Yediyurappa in their party.

The BJP high command has decided to bring down Yediyurappa, Jarakhioli said. He added, "Yediyurappa had asked BJP high command to appoint him Chief Minister for six months and due to corona, his period has been extended. But now their own party sources have revealed that he has got only another six months."

While addressing the issue of different statements by BJP leaders and ministership aspirants after five MLCs were nominated, Jarakiholi said "Yediyurappa followers are not actual followers. BJP high command has already decided to bring down Yediyurappa as per their own party sources."

While speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, he said there are teams formed in the names of deputy CMs and there are many who are working in their party against Yediyurappa.

He also said that it's up to their party what they think about Yediyurappa's tenure, whether they keep him as CM or remove him. Being in Opposition, now Congress is only working on strengthening the party, he said.
