Karnataka govt warns protesting ASHA workers of cutting incentives, urges them to report to work
Karnataka State Government while assuring the protesting Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA) workers of full filing their demands has also warned them of cutting their incentives if they don’t report back to work at the earliest.
The government in a notice issued on January 4 has asked all the ASHA workers to report back to the duty and present their reports of duty to the Deputy Commissioner of the respective District failing which their monthly incentives will be cut down.
The notice has also directed the doctors and officials of primary healthcare centres to ask ASHA workers to work regularly and to reassure them that their demands will be met “soon”.
ASHA workers who are not reporting to work owing to the pending dues from the government from last 15 months have not considered the warning of the government and continued to remain absent from the work even on Monday.
Their demands include clearing of all the pending dues of 15 months in a go before they report back to the work.

Trump repeats claim he stopped potential nuclear war between India and Pakistan
New York/Washington (PTI): US President Donald Trump has repeated his claim of resolving the India-Pakistan conflict and asserted that Islamabad's leadership credited him for saving millions of lives.
"We stopped a potential nuclear war between Pakistan and India. And the head of Pakistan, a highly respected General, he's a Field Marshal and also the Prime Minister of Pakistan, said President Trump saved 10 million lives, maybe more...,” Trump said Monday.
He made these remarks at Mar-a-Lago, Florida, flanked by Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, Navy Secretary John Phelan, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
“You know, eight planes were shot down. That war was starting to rage, and he actually said the other day that President Trump saved 10 million lives, maybe more. So we solved all these wars. The only one I haven't solved yet is Russia, Ukraine,” he said.

Since May 10, when Trump announced on social media that India and Pakistan had agreed to a “full and immediate” ceasefire after a “long night” of talks mediated by Washington, he has repeated his claim over 60 times that he “helped settle” the tensions between the two neighbours.
New Delhi has consistently denied any third-party intervention.
India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in retaliation for the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 civilians.
India and Pakistan reached an understanding on May 10 to end the conflict after four days of intense cross-border drone and missile strikes.
