Washington: People in Charlotte, North Carolina, who were testing their cameras to get shots of the night sky as well as airplanes, also captured what they believe to be a picture of a pair of alien spacecraft, recently.

The people said that they had been trying to film planes using a high resolution and a decent frame rate with their new camera, in order to check its settings, reports Lad Bible.

Once the plane had passed over, however, a couple of things flit across the camera screen, which was slowed down and zoomed in.

The owners of the camera said, “They are very different, one is flying at a constant speed on a straight trajectory and the second one makes more turns.”

They added that the exposure and contrast of the camera were slightly adjusted for better visibility.

“Also, the reason I was testing the camera was to try to catch the unusual activity that has been seen recently around Charlotte, NC. Much more frequent the last 2 months,” they said.

Some of the readers were convinced by the pictures and claims, saying, “Very interesting. SOMEBODY WITH MORE BRAINCELLS THAN ME ANALYZE!” and “Congrats, UAP spotted,” UAP being ‘Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon’, the US official title for a UFO.

Not everyone, however, is convinced and while one person has said that the image looked like of a ‘high flying bird’, another said, “A close by fly or piece of dust.”

Bengaluru: Justice John Michael D’Cunha’s committee has uncovered significant irregularities in the procurement of medical supplies during the Covid-19 pandemic, revealing that more than 16 lakh RT-PCR test kits purchased by Karnataka in 2022 under the BJP-led government were either expired or close to their expiry dates.

After irregularities in PPE kit purchases, ventilators have also come under the scanner, with the report highlighting discrepancies amounting to Rs 173.26 crore in purchases made by the Medical Education Department.

The commission has also found that the Karnataka State Medical Supplies Corporation Ltd. (KSMSCL) that cancelled a supply order for one lakh Rapid Antigen (RAT) kits placed with a Singapore-based company in March 2020 — for delay in supplying — has not recovered the Rs 6.99 crore paid to the company towards the order, as reported by The Hindu on Thursday.

According to the 279-page report on procurements made by the KSMSCL that is compiled in part IV of the report, a payment of Rs 148.84 crore was made by KSMSCL to various suppliers and firms towards procurement of RT-PCR kits from 2020 to 2022.

The Commission’s report, as cited by the publication, stated that there were records indicating procurement of RT-PCR kits, RNA extraction kits and Viral transport media (VTM) of a total value of Rs 106.25 crore during the pandemic in Karnataka. However, according to the report, this procurement was made without administrative approval.

“Since the KSMSCL has failed to discharge its obligation and responsibility, the loss caused to the State exchequer to this extent is required to be replenished by the erring officers and/or officials of the KSMSCL as well as the officers and/or officials of the consignee designated laboratories who received the consignment,” the report said, pegging the losses due to expired kits supplied by companies at Rs 3.11 crore.

In response to the report’s findings, state Health Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao criticised the saffron party for profiting from the pandemic. He promised accountability for the irregularities involving PPE kits and ventilators, stating that those responsible would face punishment.
