BJP leader murder: Hindutva organisations angered with MLAs not reaching Sullia from B'luru
Puttur: Hindutva organizations affiliated with the Sangh Parivar have reportedly decided to undertake a procession with the body of murdered BJP Yuva Morcha leader Praveen Nettaru, who was killed by miscreants at Bellare on Tuesday night.
Accordingly, a procession has started from Puttur city. The organizations have decided to continue the procession on foot until Darbe and from there they will take the dead body via Savanur Kaaniyur, Nintikallu to Bellare, it is learned.
For security purposes, strict police arrangements have been made at Puttur, Kadaba, and Sullia Taluks.
Anger against people’s representatives
Outside the private hospital in Puttur, where Praveen’s body is being kept, Hindutava organizations expressed their anger and dissatisfaction against the visiting people’s representatives.
The crowd which was outside the hospital reportedly became angered at the news that the people’s representatives who had earlier said they were in Bengaluru after Tuesday night’s murder, had not left the state capital until Wednesday morning.
The crowd was outraged that despite receiving information about the murder the leaders had not left Bengaluru earlier, and accused them of doing everything only to obtain votes. The gathered people then insisted that they would not wait for the leaders, as they did not want the leaders showing off using the dead body. Thereafter, the Sangh Parivar activists initiated the procession with the body of the deceased.

Statewide ban on IV Ringer Lactate usage: Dinesh Gundu Rao
Bengaluru: In response to the deaths of postnatal women at Ballari District Hospital, the Karnataka government has temporarily suspended the use of IV Ringer Lactate solution across the state as a precautionary measure, Health Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao announced on Saturday.
Speaking to the media in Bengaluru, the minister explained that doubts about the quality of the IV solution had arisen, prompting the decision. He clarified that Ringer Lactate, along with glucose solutions, has been routinely used in hospitals for years. However, out of the 192 batches supplied by the Karnataka State Drugs Logistics and Warehousing Society, concerns were raised regarding two specific batches.
"In light of these concerns, we stopped the use of all 192 batches as a precaution. Following this, the supplying company obtained a High Court order for testing, and the Central Drugs Laboratory (CDL) conducted an analysis. The CDL report confirmed the usability of the solution, allowing the state to form a technical committee to review and permit the use of certain batches that met quality standards. Despite this, doubts have surfaced specifically at Ballari District Hospital," the minister stated.
To address these concerns, the batches supplied to Ballari Hospital have been sent for anaerobic testing to determine whether the IV solution contributed to the deaths. The test results are expected within a week, after which a final decision on the use of IV Ringer Lactate will be made.
"Until then, we have issued directives to hospitals statewide to suspend the use of IV Ringer Lactate. Every life is important to us, and precautionary measures are essential when suspicions arise," Gundu Rao emphasised.
