Manipal, May 30: The death of a middle-aged person who had come to be treated at Kasturba Medical College Hospital at Manipal is alleged to be due to the negligence of the resident doctor. The deceased is Shashiprasad (45), resident of Kasturba Nagar in Chitpady in Udupi.

Shashiprasad was said to be suffering from throat pain and registered as a patient in the Out-patient Department (OPD) at KMC Hospital on May 24 for treatment. He was referred by Dr Shivashankar to visit the ENT specialist Dr Balakrishna for examination and diagnosis of his condition.

After examination of his illness, Dr Balakrishna directed the concerned nurse to give the patient Shashiprasad an injection. While the nurse was doing so, Shashiprasad suddenly collapsed on the ground, following which he was immediately admitted in the hospital as an emergency case.

At this point, it is said that the doctor admitted his mistake to the family members of Shashiprasad and offered to rectify it and cure the patient.

However, Shashiprasad did not respond to the treatment and breathed his last on the morning of May 29.

Following his death, his brother Sampath Rao has lodged a complaint at Manipal police station in which he has blamed Dr Balakrishna for medical negligence which resulted in the death of Shashiprasad.

KMC manipal ,the worst hospital ever I seen in my life.Bcoz I have experienced personally when taken treatment for my mother.I lost my Mother bcoz of their medical negligency.They are using maximam patient for teach their students.In order to teach maximum level , they are playing with Human life .Doctors and Hospital management does not have any humanity & Kindness in their blood . They are professionally well trained masters for swindling & robbing from the patient no matter what background patience come from.Even after spending such huge amount , we are not only loosing money but also a human life .They are least bothered & don't spare human life. I Have observed and come acrossed mutilple occasion during my Mom admitted in hospital.

I don't like to critize anyone unless we personally experienced. Its a true facts what ever I mentioned .I kindly request every one not to visit KMC manipal if you value your life. What I suffered I don't further anyone to suffer. Hence I amicably requesting anyone not to recommend KMC Manipal. Simple meaning of manipal KMC is nothing but as BURIAL GROUND.

Thank you
Regards

Manipal doctors are almost God! They're the absolute best. Anyone who disagrees is a fool. See... I said almost God. Not God! They do a great job... But sometimes things r beyond human control. I know the above mentioned doctor! He's a legend. People from all over the world come specifically for him. So whoever spoke badly of the doctor, know that ur karma will hit u back big time!

in response to #9 nagaraj ,
yes doctors just somehow get into a college , pretend they study for 10-15 years, and once they are done , they wake up in the morning come to the icu , keep your famliy naked , stare at them, make jokes , kill them , then charge you money so they can keep living right ?
the fuck you saying retard. you think they did all that schooling and learning such complex things your stupid puny little brain cant understand even in a century just to fuck with you ? get a fucking life. ppl die. doctors are not gods. just open a fucking mbbs book , see the size of that shit. to become a doctor in a reputed hospital is no joke bhenchod.

I lost my mother, these hospitals are not center for treatment, they are business centers and those who treat there are assholes. they are just money minded, i have a video how they spread virus too.
i will upload that very soon. the security bastards won't allow us even if your loved ones are dead inside ICU. Oh! i forgot to mention the ICU Concept in this business is very dangerous they keep patient far from germs in this unit, if you are thinking like this you are wrong. they are keeping their loved ones far so they can't see anyone inside and what is going on.. once my mom informed my dad that they left her naked in front of other patient for a long time it seems . such a shame. they also might have made their family members in front of many to get a job like that. they doesn't even know what is going to happen to the patient and just walks in the morning and evening and learnt story telling very well from primary school.

Karnataka: BJP leader and advocate G Devaraje Gowda was arrested in connection with a sex abuse video allegedly belonging to Hassan JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna.

According to police, Devaraje Gowda was arrested at Gulihal tollgate by the Hiriyur police in this district on Friday night for leaking the video in a pen drive.

He was arrested on a tip-off received by the Hassan police, which wanted his presence for the case.

Several explicit videos involving Prajwal started making the rounds ahead of the first phase of Lok Sabha elections in Karnataka, which took place on April 26.

The MP, a grandson of former prime minister H D Deve Gowda, is absconding and a 'blue corner' notice has been issued against him by Interpol.

Three FIRs, including charges of rape, molestation, intimidation, blackmailing and threatening, have been registered against Prajwal.

Devaraje Gowda is accused of leaking these videos, which he has categorically rejected.

He contested in the 2023 Assembly elections against JD(S) MLA from Holenarasipura H D Revanna.

H D Revanna, father of Prajwal, is at present in jail on charges of kidnapping a woman, a mother of three.

Ahead of polls, Devaraje Gowda had warned BJP’s central leadership against backing Prajwal Revanna and brought his sex scandal to light.

Several women, believed to be victims of Prajwal Revanna, have left their homes in Karnataka's Hassan district over the last ten days, according to media reports.

These departures reportedly come amid fear and stigma after their identities became public due to the circulating video clips showing the women who were allegedly sexually assaulted by Prajwal Revanna.

"The entire district is in H D Revanna’s control. You speak ill about them and chances are high that it will reach them, because the family and the party have a large following," a shopkeeper in Hagare - 20 km from Hassan – was quoted as saying by the news paper. 

Hassan is the bastion of the JD(S) supremo Deve Gowda, and Prajwal, his grandson, is the sitting MP.

The family of the woman whose complaint was the basis of the first FIR against Prajwal has now left their home, the publication reported, citing a neighbour who said, "The woman worked at Revanna’s house as a house help. Some of her videos started to circulate and then, her house was seen locked. We don’t know when she left."

Notably, a former Zilla Panchayat member has also filed a rape case against Prajwal, and in that village many women who worked for the party formerly are now incommunicado, a JD(S) leader told the publication. "We noticed many of the party women deleting their photos with Prajwal on social media. In some instances, men are questioning their wives about their association with the MP. It is shattering the lives of many women in the district," he said.

The local leader added that the former Zilla Panchayat member was there on April 24, but no one had seen the family since the videos came out.

The case is currently being probed by an SIT team and when they reached the Revanna residence, party workers were reportedly heard talking about the women. "I know this woman, she lived close to our residence and was very active in JD(S) activities. Her house is locked… she has small children," one said, as per IE.

Another shopkeeper added, "It was really wrong to reveal the faces of the women. I know some of them, and they have gone into hiding. We don’t know whether they can return."

He noted that it is impossible to survive in Hassan while fighting a case against the Revanna family.

While Prajwal's father, H D Revanna is in SIT custody, a Blue Corner notice has been issued against the sitting MP.

Mangaluru, May 3: The Mangaluru City Corporation will resort to water rationing from May 5 as the Thumbe vented dam, which supplies drinking water to the city, is facing a shortage in water storage.

Instead of daily supply, water will be supplied on alternate days, the Executive Engineer (Water Supply) at the corporation said in a release.

The release said that water will be supplied to Mangaluru City North on May 5. There will be no water supply to Mangaluru City North on May 6. Instead water will be supplied to Mangaluru City South on May 6. Likewise the supply on alternate days will continue.

The inflow in the Netravathi has stopped, the release said, requesting people to cooperate with the corporation and not waste water for washing vehicles and other purposes.

An engineer at the corporation said that water level at the dam stood at 4.27 m on Wednesday against the full storage level of 6 m. If water is supplied daily to the entire city (Mangaluru City North and Mangaluru City South) the existing storage will last only for 16 days, the engineer said. Hence the decision to supply water on alternate days has been taken to supply water till May-end.
