Manjeshwar, October 23: Two localites of the town were among the 60 fortunate people who were rescued after an Iranian ship carrying 73 voyagers sank in the Persian Gulf last Thursday.

They have been identified as Avinash (25), a resident of Hosangady near here and Mohammed Haneef (37), a resident of Peringady near here.

13 people including seven Indian divers, who had stuck underwater, when the ill-fated ship sank about 20 km off the oil rich nation's southern Assaloyeh port, have lost their lives. The tragedy occurred around 5:30 pm IST on October 20, when the ship was advancing towards the port from an offshore oil rig.

The seven deceased Indians were staffers of Mumbai-based firm Adsun Offshore Diving Contractors Pvt Ltd.

Both Avinash and Haneef contacted their family members over phone after the tragedy to inform that they were safe.

Hanif has been working in Iran for over eight years, while Avinash was serving as a caterer on board the ship. The latter had visited his hometown three months ago to attend his sister's marriage.

Gadag, Feb 20: A 33-year-old Muslim man is all set to become a seer at Muruga Rajendra Mutt in Gadag.

Ordained by Sri Murugarajendra Koraneswara Swami of the mutt, Dewan Sharief Mullah claims he was taking the step not under any duress but after being "guided by the almighty".

"Nobody asked me to do it. The almighty came in my mind and guided me.... They have put the sacred thread and given me the responsibility. They have given me the 'Ishta-linga' and this honour. I have done the 'Ishta-linga dharan'. I will walk on the path of dharma. Love and sacrifice is the message given to me. That is what I want to propagate," he said.

Sri Murugarajendra Koraneswara Swami said, "It does not matter what caste you belong to. If God appears to you for a path of goodwill and sacrifice, you will do it regardless of the manmade restrictions of birth and caste."

BBMP Padaraynapura corporator Imran Pasha tests covid positive; 21 quarantined

News Network

May 30,2020

Bengaluru, May 30: A city corporator in Bengaluru was sent into quarantine on Saturday after he tested positive for the coronavirus infection, officials said.

"Yes, I have tested positive," Padarayanapura municipal ward corporator Imran Pasha told some news channels.

The JDS corporator said he would quarantine himself as per the regulations.

The entire area where Pasha lives was cordoned off.

Health workers reached there in an ambulance and gave him a personal protection gear to wear and he was taken to a designated hospital.

Reacting to the development, Karnataka Revenue Minister R Ashoka claimed Pasha hardly paid heed to the COVID-19 regulations.

"He rushes to all those places wherever there are positive cases...," Ashoka told reporters.

Padarayanapura was declared as a containment zone earlier with a few cases coming to the fore.

It was in this area where some policemen and health workers were attacked when they went to quarantine a few primary and secondary contacts of a COVID-19 patient about a month ago.

Following the incident, about 125 people were arrested, and later quarantined after a few of them tested positive.
