Who quit after air crash, Kumbh stampede: CM Siddaramaiah
BENGALURU: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday hit out at the BJP for seeking his resignation over the stampede outside the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on June 4, which claimed 11 lives. Siddaramaiah asked the BJP to first release a list of its leaders who resigned owing responsibility after similar incidents in the past, including the recent Ahmedabad plane crash , collapse of a pedestrian suspension bridge in Morbi, Gujarat, and the stampede during the Kumbh Mela in Uttar Pradesh. The incident that happened outside Chinnaswamy Stadium is a tragedy. As a responsible government, we have ordered a probe, and action has been taken. While we have taken these many steps, the BJP is demanding my resignation. They are politicising the tragedy. They have no concern for people, the CM said. The BJP on Tuesday staged a protest in Bengaluru seeking the resignation of CM Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar in connection with the stadium stampede. He said that the BJP plays politics over dead bodies, and it is their old habit. Siddaramaiah said that his government knows the pain of the families of the stampede victims, and that is why the Congress is not politicising the incident. Bengaluru stampede: Karnataka HC asks cops not to arrest RCB, DNA reps Recalling the Godhra train carnage that resulted in communal riots in Gujarat in 2002, Siddaramaiah said that the then PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee had asked the then Gujarat CM Narendra Modi to resign. Modi neither resigned nor expressed any regret. BJP leaders, who are demanding our resignations, should question their own leaders about this, the CM said, asking the BJP leader why they did not seek PM Modis resignation after the recent Pahalgam terrorist attack . My party wanted a special session of the Parliament to discuss the matter... but PM Modi refused. The Union Government has failed to nab the four terrorists who killed innocent tourists. Who should take responsibility for this? he asked the BJP leaders. He sought to know from the BJP who was responsible for the stampede during the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj and the air crash in Ahmedabad and who resigned for it. Saying that the unrest in Manipur has been going on for the last two years, the CM said that the then Chief Minister of the state from the BJP, N Biren Singh, did not resign immediately but quit only after the Supreme Court intervened. The unrest still continues in Manipur. Why hasnt Home Minister Amit Shah resigned? the CM asked BJP leaders.

Class I enrolment in Kerala government, aided schools drops; minister cites dip in birth rate
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The number of students enrolled in Class I in government and aided schools has dropped to 2.34 lakh this year compared to 2.50 lakh the previous year. However, the overall number of students enrolled in Classes II to X in government and aided schools rose by 40,906 from the previous year to settle at 29.27 lakh. General Education Minister V Sivankutty announced the enrolment figures here on Tuesday based on the sixth working day statistics collected from schools. The minister attributed the drop of 16,510 students in Class I enrolment in government and aided schools to the decline in birth rate by 2.89% during the 2010-2020 period. Students mostly born in 2020 have been admitted to Class I this year. The birth rate in 2020 was 12.77% which is a drop of 2.89% when compared to the birth rate of 15.75% recorded in 2010, Sivankutty said. Notably, the enrolment in Class I in unaided schools remained mostly stable at 47,863 with an increase of just one student this year compared to the previous years figure of 47,862. Asked about the unaided enrolment figures remaining unaffected despite the dip in birth rate, Sivankutty evaded a comparison and said those who prefer unaided schools and those who opt for government and aided schools were from two distinct sections of society. Sivankutty said Higher Secondary Plus-I classes will begin on Wednesday with 3.4 lakh students who have secured admission in the three main rounds of seat allotment. He said the government had made prior arrangements to ensure a sufficient number of seats this year taking into account the protests over alleged seat shortage in the previous years. When the admissions draw to a close this year, there will be a large number of vacant seats in the state, including in Malappuram district, he said. The minister said the general education department will conduct a thorough study on the Plus-I seat vacancy scenario this year and take a decision on what needs to be done with the seats that have remained permanently vacant over the years. Sivankutty said the menu of the noon-meal scheme in schools has been thoroughly revised based on the recommendations of an expert committee.

Sishu Bhawan doctor booked after child dies post-surgery at private hospital in Odisha
CUTTACK: A woman on Sunday lodged a complaint against a doctor of Sishu Bhawan for allegedly referring her son to a private hospital, where he succumbed post-surgery. Basing on the complaint of Sujata Nayak (26), a resident of Fasi village in Dhenkanal, police have registered a case against the doctor. As per Nayak, she and her husband Ramesh Chandra Nayak had got their oneand-a-half-year-old son admitted to Sishu Bhawan for treatment on May 28. However, the doctor allegedly told them that their son was suffering from hernia and required immediate surgery. After knowing that we had the government health insurance card, the doctor said it was not possible to conduct my sons surgery at Sishu Bhawan, and referred us to a private hospital at Chandni Chowk, Nayak stated in her complaint. Subsequently, the child was taken to the private hospital on June 9 and surgery conducted in the evening. The doctors there initially told us that our child was well and had been kept in the ICU. However, the next day he suggested we shift him to another private hospital at Mangalabag stating his condition had deteriorated, she said. However, despite shifting him to the hospital at Mangalabag, the child succumbed on Sunday morning. Nayak attributed her sons death to medical negligence by the doctors. We have also exhausted all the money from the health insurance card, she said further seeking legal action against the doctor. Acting on the FIR, a case has been registered and investigation is underway. We have sent a letter to the CDMO, Cuttack seeking a report in this connection. After getting report, necessary legal action will be taken, said a senior police officer.
