New Delhi, Jul 6: Charging the BJP of indulging in horse-trading in Karnataka by offering all sorts of temptations to it's MLAs there, Congress on Saturday condemned its attempts to bring down an elected government in the state. 

Talking to reporters after a meeting of senior Congress leaders, to discuss the political crisis in Karnataka, caused by the resignation of 11 MLAs, including eight from the Congress and three from JD(S), AICC Media In-charge Randeep Surjewala said, 'BJP is unable to digest the elected government of Karnataka, so they have set up a 'mandi' of Legislators, by providing all sorts of temptations. We condemn the attempts by BJP of trying to bring down the elected government in Karnataka.'

Alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah were encouraging defections in the state, Mr Surjewwala said, 'A new symbol of horse-trading politics has emerged in the country, MODI - Mischievously Orchestrated Defections in India.

'Would like to remind the PM of his oath to protect the Constitution. If the PM of the country is going to encourage defections in broad daylight, who will protect democracy? If the Prime Minister and the Home Minister abdicate their constitutional efforts, there will be no democracy left,' he added. 

'We want to tell them that no effort of yours will succeed in denigrating India's democracy or its laudable Constitution," Mr Surjewala asserted. 

The 13-month-old JD(S)-Congress coalition government in Karnataka edged closer to falling down, as 11 MLAs, including eight of Congress and three of JD (S) met Governor Vajubhai Vala, after submitting their resignations to Assembly Secretary MK Vishalakshi, in the absence of Speaker K N Ramesh Kumar.

AICC General Secretary for Karnataka K C Venugopal rushed to Bangalore, in the light of the developments.

The PEACE LOVERS GROUP should be formed to protect the state, country which should attack those responsible for causing such a big destruction of peace.

Attack mercilessly those who responsible like   all MLAs who betrayed their people of their constituency   and Opposition leaders Yaddi,  Modi,   Shah and whoever else involved.

This is the real struggle and Heroism like who fought against British to get freedom.

Keeping quiet is the big crime. Answerable to God. May God help

Bengaluru, Aug 6: No private hospital in Karnataka can turn away a patient without attending to him or her, irrespective of the Coronavirus status, an official has said.

"Private medical establishments shall not deny treatment and admission to any patient approaching the establishment irrespective of the fact that such patient may or may not be suffering from Covid-19," an official from the state Health and Family Welfare Department said on Wednesday.

Likewise, no private hospital can insist on a patient for a Covid-19 test report, said the official invoking the Disaster Management Act.

"The establishments also cannot insist for Covid test report," he said, directing all private hospitals to strictly abide by their responsibilities.

According to the department, it is the duty of every private hospital to provide first aid and take lifesaving steps when any patient approaches it.

"It is the duty of every private medical establishment to provide first aid and take lifesaving measures to stabilise the patient," he said.

The department also invoked statutes from Karnataka Medical Establishments Act 2017, under sections 11 and 11 (A) to drive home the message.

The directives assume significance at a time when several cases of private hospitals denying admissions and fleecing patients across the state have emerged.

"It has been noticed that some of the private hospitals are refusing treatment and admission to emergency patients, causing distress and this has resulted in complications, leading to death in certain cases," said the official.

The district authorities have been directed to take action on the erring hospitals as the department reiterated the responsibilities of private medical establishments.
