Full support to Tibetans: CM Kumaraswamy
Bengaluru, August 10: The state government will extend its complete support to Tibetans who are living in the state, said Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy.
He was speaking at ‘Thank You Karnataka,’ a programme organized to mark the six-decade-long exile of Tibetans organized by Tibetans living in the state.
Tibetans were sheltered in the state when Nijalingappa was the chief minister. Since then, the state government has provided all kinds of cooperation to them. It will be continued for the development of Tibetans, he assured.
Lands were allotted to the Tibetans in the districts of Mysuru, Uttara Kannada, and Chamarajanagar. The relations between Karnataka and Tibet would be stronger, Kumaraswamy added.
Speaking at the occasion, Tibetan priest Dalai Lama said, “India was a guru for Tibetan. It has taught us the knowledge of History, philosophy, and principles of diversity. It was everybody's responsibility to return such a culture, rituals and the principles of nonviolence to India.”

22 students hospitalised post-lunch at Telangana school; probe underway
Hyderabad, Nov 26: At least 22 students from a government school in Telangana's Narayanpet district were hospitalised on Tuesday after complaining of headaches and stomach aches. Officials are investigating whether the illness was linked to the lunch served at the school.
The affected students had also eaten snacks from nearby bakeries and shops, and samples have been collected for laboratory testing, according to the District Educational Officer (DEO), based on preliminary information.
Over 400 students, along with district authorities, the school headmaster, and teachers, had the mid-day meal at Zilla Parishad High School in Maganoor on Tuesday. However, 22 students began experiencing symptoms of headaches, stomach pain, and vomiting at 3.30 pm.
They were admitted to a hospital, where doctors confirmed they were safe after treatment, the official said. One student who vomited claimed the potatoes and brinjal were inadequately cooked, while another had a stomach ache.
It was alleged that the affected students fell ill after having lunch, though they had also eaten snacks from outside the school. District authorities are investigating the matter from all angles, said a senior official.
This incident follows a similar case on November 20, when 17 students from the same school were hospitalised after consuming a mid-day meal.
