We sought blanket, Centre gave merely handkerchief: Prakash Raj slams Centre on interim flood relief
Bengaluru: Actor turned politician, Prakash Raj on Sunday slammed Modi led Central Government over the announcement of Rs. 1200 crore interim flood relief aid to the state added that it is merely a ‘handkerchief’ when the state asked for ‘Blanket’.
Taking to twitter, Prakash Raj on Sunday added that Rs. 1200 crore flood relief aid was not sufficient for the state as it has estimated the total damage and loss to be worth Rs. 38000 crore.
The Centre earlier last week released Rs. 1200 crore aid for Karnataka as interim funds for flood relief which triggered mixed reaction in political circle and social media platforms. Several leaders and activists slammed the Centre for ignoring the state’s needs.

Elephant calf brought from Bijnor kept under care at Pilibhit Tiger Reserve
Pilibhit (PTI): A 19-day-old elephant calf, brought from Bijnor, was placed under care at the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve (PTR) on Sunday, an official said and added that the calf got separated from its mother in the forest area of Bijnor.
The calf was born on December 2 in the Bijnor forest area and got separated from its mother shortly after birth, the official said.
The forest department made several attempts to reunite it with its mother, but without any success. To ensure the calf's safety and better care, it was decided to transfer it to the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve on the instructions of senior officials.
On Saturday, Deputy Director Manish Singh received the calf. Special arrangements have been made in the reserve for its care. It has been kept in a safe and clean environment to provide it with a natural setting and protect it from external noise and disturbances.
Singh told reporters that raising an 19-day-old calf is challenging.
It requires a special diet as a substitute for mother's milk and constant monitoring.
He said a special team has been formed to provide 24-hour care. Since the calf is very young, it is being cared for like a newborn baby.
According to Singh, the primary responsibility for monitoring the calf's health has been entrusted to PTR's veterinarian, Dr Daksh Gangwar. Under his supervision, a complete record of the calf's health checkups, diet, and body temperature is being maintained. The team is ensuring that the calf does not contract any infection.
