The rally was jointly organised by the Dakshina Kannada district committees of Communist Party of India (Marxist) and Communist Party of India as a precursor to mammoth protest rally planned by the Left parties in Bengaluru on June 6.

Speaking on the occasion, CPI district secretary V Kukyan said the BJP led NDA government which already two years at the centre have belied all promises made to their respective electorate.

He said that the government's policies had left the poor and the deserving sections of society in a rather piquant situation.

“Team Modi is catering to the interests of the capitalists ignoring the interests of both farmers and the labour class, he said adding the state government too has failed in providing even basic minimum amenities to the people that expected it,” he said.

The BJP that promised to bring back black money stashed in tax havens abroad prior to the elections has failed miserably in this regard. Corporate borrowers owe Indian banks nearly Rs 3-lakh crore, he said adding nationalized banks have already declared this as non-performing assets. The union government also failed to stop liquor baron Vijay Mallya from fleeing the country and being brought to justice here, he noted.

CPM district secretary Vasanth Achary said it is the corporates who are reaping the benefits of Indian independence and not poor people.

Good move. Though the main opposition party Congress is doing very very less effort to counter communalism of Modi Government.
Atleast Khanayya Kumar voice heard more than entire Congress party.

Kasaragod, Apr 29: Kasaragod's General Hospital on Tuesday discharged the last of its 89 COVID-19 patients, who were admitted since the outbreak of the disease last month.

The patient discharged on Tuesday is a native of Anankur in Kerala. He was under treatment for 27 days following his return from Dubai. He was given a warm send-off at 12 noon by the doctors and hospital staff.

Of the 175 positive cases in Kasaragod district, only 12 are under treatment in other hospitals in the district now. Of them, seven had come from the Gulf and the remaining five were those in contact with them.

During a press meet, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, while referring the Kasaragod General Hospital's success story, congratulated the doctors, nurses and medical staff for the achievement.

According to Health Department, in spite of treating the highest number of COVID-19 patients in the state with meagre infrastructural facilities and even without the support of a medical college in the district, there have been no deaths.

According to the district administration, Kasaragod has conducted 4,112 tests so far, out of which 3,104 tested negative and the results of 833 are awaited.

The team of doctors, nurses and other staff numbering 250 is led by Dr Rajaram K Kandiyil, Superintendent of the Kasaragod General Hospital.

Mangaluru, Apr 23: The scarcity of water in Kukkavu area of Belthangady town in Dakshina Kannada district has forced school-going children to dig a well with their hands.
The children studying in primary schools were seen lifting the heavy buckets of water from the well.

The residents were facing the water shortage from the past couple of days, amid the coronavirus lockdown.
A group of five adolescents managed to dug the well as deep as 12 feet within just a span of four days.

" We are facing water problem now. With the support of my five more friends, we dug this well. At the beginning we just found soil, then in the deeper layers, we also found stones. We got access to the water at 10 feet down," said Dhanush, a class 9th student, while speaking to news agency.

The shortage of water during the summer months is a perennial problem in across several states in India, and the growing population has only added to the woes.

In extreme conditions, poor have to draw water from small water holes.
