Karnataka Elections 2023: BJP programs are part of Congress' manifesto, says CM Bommai

-

Calling the Congress’ manifesto “cheating”, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai claimed that most of the programs were announced by the incumbent BJP government.

The CM while campaigning BJP candidate MR Patil, said, “He has an emotional bond with this taluk as he spent most of his childhood days here in Kamadolli, Saunshi, and Gudageri. His father, former CM, SR Bommai had got released nearly 30,000 acres of land to farmers of this taluk, and he had won from the constituency as an independent candidate.

The chilli crop is grown more in Kundagol but the Byadgi chilli is the most famous across the world. From next year, arrangements will be made for the purchase of the chilli crop in Kundgol.”

Bommaii said on the one hand the BJP is seeking votes based on patriotism and the country’s security but on the other hand, the Congress Party has joined hands with anti-nationals to divide the nation.

He further said that the Congress party has done zero development all these years. Under the Kisan Sanman scheme, benefits had been distributed among 54 lakh farmers across the state of which 20,000 belonged to Kundgol taluk.

“This taluk is denied development in the last 20 years. I have released a Rs 25 crore grant to the MLA of all taluk without making any difference. The Kundagol taluk had been given Rs 250 crore for development,” he said.

He said the Congress Party released its election manifesto and a guarantee has been issued even for this document.

“They have promised to give 10 kg of rice to each family member. The BJP government is also giving the same quantity of rice to eligible people after the Covid pandemic. The rice is given by Prime Minister Narendra Modi but the Congress leaders have put up their photos on the rice sack. The BJP had announced a free bus ride for women but the Congress Party announces something under a different name,” said Bommai.

He said that Congress promised to complete the Kalasa-Bandura canal works in five years and the BJP government has prepared to float a tender.

“The Jayadeva Institute of Cardiology hospitals will be opened in all revenue divisions and steps have been initiated to have a 250-bed Jayadeva Hospital in Hubballi. The government will give more funds if the voters elect MR Patil by a big margin,” he added.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-
Image
After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu
