DKMA, which came into existence in May 2016 with the sole intention of helping bereaved and aggrieved poor Muslim families in Dakshina Kannada district in case of sudden demise of their breadwinners, had already given identity and health cards to around 150 beneficiaries.

Speaking after distributing the cards, S M Rashid Haji, the founder president of DKMA, said that 40 more beneficiaries will be provided cards at Yedapadavu on February 2.

He said that the Association has already provided Rs 2 lakhs each to two families so far and another family will receive the same amount next week.

The Association is supposed to donate Rs 2 lakh to the family of each beneficiary card holder after his or her demise. The families of only those who get beneficiary cards from DKMA will be eligible to receive the amount. The beneficiaries will also be eligible to get free treatment at Yenepoya Medical College Hospital at Deralakatte.

Chamarajanagar, Jan 3: The residents of Galipura layout in Chamarajanagar city boycotted the annual Community Based Survey (CBS), conducted by the Health and Family Welfare department, mistaking it to be the National Register of Citizens (NRC).

Majority of the residents in the layout belong to Muslim community. The people, who mistook CBS to the NRC survey, got into arguments with the Asha workers, who were given the responsibility of collecting information. They even tore the forms into pieces and vent their ire.

The Health Department conducts CBS every year in the urban areas and collects all details including Aadhaar number, residential address, details of family members, health problems and others.

Fifteen Asha workers were deputed for the survey in the layout. A few youths started questioning them alleging it to be an NRC survey and started arguing with them.
Tahsildar Mahesh, District Health and Family Welfare Officer Dr N C Ravi, with the help of Muslim leaders cleared the confusion. The community leaders assured of explaining it to the residents and extend cooperation to the survey.

Its not the fault of the residents.  Sanghis are planning to approach citizins disguised as health workers and else to get  details of residents.   such trouble makers should be noted and handed over to police.   Police should arrest such fake people and put in jail.   such fake people are trying to terrify poors and collect money assuring to help them.   So, please be careful.
