India logs 305 new COVID-19 cases

by

NEW DELHI: India saw a single day rise of 305 new cases of COVID-19, while the number of active cases of the infection has declined to 2,439, the health ministry said on Thursday.

Three deaths — one each from Maharashtra, Karnataka and Gujarat — have been reported in a span of last 24 hours, according to the ministry’s data updated at 8 am.

The number of daily cases had dropped to double-digits till December 5, but cases began to increase after emergence of a new variant and cold weather conditions.

After December 5, a maximum of a single-day rise of 841 new cases were reported on December 31, which is 0.2 per cent of the peak cases reported in May 2021, official sources said.

Of the total active cases, around 92 per cent are recovering under home isolation.

“The currently available data suggests that the JN.1 sub-variant is neither leading to an exponential rise in the new cases nor a surge in the hospitalisation and mortality,” the official source stated.

India has witnessed three waves of COVID-19 in the past with the peak incidence of daily new cases and deaths being reported during the delta wave during April-June 2021.

At its peak, 414,188 new cases and 3915 deaths were reported on May 7, 2021.

Since the pandemic began in early 2020, there have been more than 4.5 crore people getting infected and over 5.3 lakh deaths in about four years since then across the country.

The number of people who have recuperated from the disease stands at over 4.4 crore with a national recovery rate of 98.81 per cent, according to the ministry’s website.

According to the website, 220.67 crore doses of Covid vaccines have so far been administered in the country. 

‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ enters Assam from Nagaland

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi with supporters during the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, in Nagaland.

The Rahul Gandhi-led ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’, on Thursday entered Assam through Haluwating in Sivasagar district from Nagaland.

Gandhi resumed his journey in a bus from Tuli in Nagaland in the early morning and reached Assam around 9:45 am. He was received by hundreds of party workers at Haluwating, where the national flag was handed over to Assam Congress leaders for the eight-day journey in the state.

The 6,713-km-long march, led by the Congress MP, commenced from Manipur on January 14 and will culminate on March 20 in Mumbai. The Assam leg of the march will continue till January 25.

The ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ is planned to cover 110 districts in 15 states.

Israeli forces bomb area close to Nasser Hospital without prior evacuation order:MSF

by

An MSF (Medecins Sans Frontieres) surgeon at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis reports that last night, Israeli forces heavily bombed the area close to the hospital with no prior evacuation order, causing patients and people sheltering there to flee in panic.

“We are extremely concerned for the safety of our staff and patients. Once again, we call for the protection of all medical facilities and the unhindered access and provision of health care for both civilians and aid workers,” the surgeon said.

More than 24,000 people have been killed and nearly two million are internally displaced within Gaza. Without access to food, clean water, shelter, and health services, Palestinians also face a heightened risk of disease and starvation. And while the continues, the few hospitals that remain operational are overwhelmed and lack essential medical supplies that can save lives.

Maha (names changed for privacy and security) is from northern Gaza. She went to a hospital when she felt labor was starting, but she couldn’t be treated. All the delivery rooms were full. She knew something wasn’t right, that she needed to be admitted—she has had a Cesarean section before. But with no other option, she had to go back to her tent. Her son died. She gave birth to him in the latrines closest to her tent, according to Pascale, working as an emergency coordinator for Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in Gaza for just over three weeks.

“When I entered our facility, Maha was sitting on her bed after receiving postpartum care. She’s the one who called me to talk to her. She needed to express her deep pain to all of us; she needed to cry out to us about the injustice she experienced. Without this war, she would not have lost her son,” the surgeon said in a statement issued by the MSF.

Pascale was narrating the woes of patients at Al-Emirati Hospital in Rafah, where people receive postpartum care. In addition to the exhaustion of childbirth, they must contend with the displacement, poor living conditions in Rafah, and the uncertainty of what tomorrow holds.  

Nour had a little girl, a very pretty one. After giving birth, Nour was happy but tired, half asleep and a little pale. My colleagues gave her a hemoglobin test—she needed to take some iron and vitamin C supplements. Her mother-in-law accompanied her and told me that their family is from Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip. Her house and her street are now reduced to rubble. I asked what her baby girl’s name would be. Nour hadn’t decided yet. But her mother-in-law would like her name to be Salam (Arabic for “peace”), which has never been more needed. 

Reham* had just given birth to a baby girl, too. They are both fine. She wanted to show me the face of the newborn and told me with a smile that her name is Amal, meaning “hope,” because hope is what encourages Palestinians to get up every morning despite the horrors they have lived through. And it’s the last thing Reham wants to lose.

India clinches T20 series against Afghanistan in dramatic double super over finish

by

India's captain Rohit Sharma with others after the second innings during the third T20 cricket match between India and Afghanistan, at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, in Bengaluru

BENGALURU: Skipper Rohit Sharma donned the glittering cap of saviour thrice in the night, first with a situation-defying hundred in regulation time and then with two mini assaults to help India fight past a feisty Afghanistan in a dramatic double Super Over finish in the third and final T20 here on Wednesday.

The result meant that India won their final series before the T20 World Cup with a satisfying 3-0 margin.

Before Super Overs kicked in, Rohit (121 not out, 69b, 11×4, 8×6) and his perfect sidekick Rinku Singh (69 n.

o, 39b, 2×4, 6×6) shared 190 runs for a stellar unbeaten fifth-wicket stand as India came back from a flaky 22 for four to post a massive 212 for four after opting to bat first.

The Afghans started gamely through openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz (50, 32b) and Ibrahim Zadran (50, 41 balls) as they added 93 runs in 11 overs, building a solid foundation for the chase.

Their departure saw spinners Washington Sundar (3/18) and Kuldeep Yadav (1/31) tightening things a bit but the experienced Gulbadin Naib (55 not out off 23 balls) played some twinkling shots to keep his side in the hunt.

Naib knocked off 18 runs of the required 19 off the final over bowled by pacer Mukesh Kumar, dragging the match into a Super Over.

The visitors made 16 for 1 in the first Super Over bowled by Mukesh and India equalled the score with Rohit making 13, and it stretched the game to the second Super Over.

In this phase, India made 11 and Rohit made all those runs before getting run out.

Afghanistan lost both Mohammad Nabi and Gurbaz to leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi as they failed to score any runs in the second Super Over, signalling the end of a winding match.

Rohit remained the star of the night among all that commotion, also silencing those who doubted his suitability to be in India’s T20 scheme of things.

A strike-rate of 175 often will give the picture of manic hitting but his innings was anything but that.

His top-order colleagues’ callousness while playing the pull shot meant that Rohit had to restrain himself in the initial part of his stay.

Even Rinku displayed his destructive instincts judiciously and that gradually-building crescendo was the trademark of their alliance.

The Afghanistan spinners found a hint of grip from the surface, and Rohit had to bring out a rather rare shot from his arsenal, reverse sweep to unsettle opposition spinners.

In fact, a reverse sweep off leg-spinner Qais Ahmad fetched him a T20 fifty off 41 balls, a first since October 2022.

But even a restraint Rohit can be a sight for sore eyes.

There were those inevitable and archetypal pulls that make a Rohit innings such a compelling watch.

Perhaps, a message for other top-order batters on the safe execution of that shot.

The Mumbaikar’s on-one-leg pull off pacer Mohammed Saleem that sailed into second tier was an astounding shot.

But once he felt that India had reached a safer shore, Rohit unleashed himself on the Afghans as 71 runs flowed from the next 28 balls he faced.

The fifty soon blossomed into a hundred off 63 balls, Rohit’s first in T20 since his 111 against the West Indies at Lucknow in 2018.

This was also Rohit’s highest score in T20s, surpassing his 118 against Sri Lanka at Indore in 2017.

At the other end, Rinku had the simple job of keeping his end up and the left-hander did that job with maturity.

Rinku, though, vented his belligerence when the opportunity presented itself, such as a flicked six off Saleem over square leg and carried on to register his second T20 fifty as the Afghans wilted under continuous onslaught.

However, it was not entirely a smooth ride for the Indians as their top-order caved in against a sprightly Afghan new-ball bowlers.

Yashasvi Jaiswal was the first to depart as left-arm pacer Fareed Ahmad cramped him for room, and the opener’s top-edged pull was snaffled by Mohammed Nabi in the deep.

Virat Kohli lasted just one ball.

Entering the field to a rapturous welcome from a packed stadium, Kohli could not negate a climbing delivery from Ahmad, slicing the pull to Zadran just inside the circle.

Sanju Samson too lasted just a ball, a mistimed pull off Azmatullah Omarzai ending in the hands of Nabi.

Amidst the pulling frenzy of his top-order colleagues, in-form Shivam Dube wanted to push one down to the vacant third man space, but all he could do was to nurdle the ball to Gurbaz behind the stumps.

Ahmad ended his first spell with impressive figures of 3-0-10-3 as India ended the power play at a vastly underwhelming 30 for four.

CM Siddaramaiah warns Maharashtra government over health scheme in border villages

by

BELAGAVI: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Wednesday warned the Maharashtra government against letting its officials enter Karnataka to implement the health insurance scheme which the neighbouring state is planning in 865 border villages of Karnataka.

To questions from reporters in Belagavi, Siddaramaiah said, “Our chief secretary has spoken to his counterpart in Maharashtra, asking them not to enter Karnataka.’’

The state government has already initiated measures to stop Maharashtra from going ahead with its insurance scheme, which is aimed at helping the large Marathi population staying in those villages.

Last week, Karnataka authorities closed several outlets that were opened to help people enrol under the scheme.

The CM said he was fortunate to lay the foundation stone for the Sangolli Rayanna Sainik School in Sangolli near Belagavi during his previous tenure, and he has inaugurated it as CM now.

HD Kumaraswamy meets Shah BJP-JDS seat-sharing talks after Jan 22

by

JDS state chief H D Kumaraswamy greets Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP national president JP Nadda in New Delhi on Wednesday. His son Nikhil Kumaraswamy and former RS member Kupendra Reddy look on.

BENGALURU: JDS state president HD Kumaraswamy held a crucial meeting with Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi on Wednesday on preparations for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Shah suggested that the process of JDS officially joining the National Democratic Alliance and discussions on the sharing of seats between BJP and JDS for the Lok Sabha elections should be finalised after the consecration of the Ram temple in Ayodhya on January 22, and after deliberations with BJP national president JP Nadda, Kumaraswamy said.  

They discussed the anti-incumbency wave in the state even before Congress completed one year in office and people suffering under the dispensation.

“I spoke to him about the severe drought in the state. They know that the state government has not given any money to drought-affected people till now,” he said.

Discussions were held on effectively bringing failures of the state government to the attention of the people, he added.

The meeting was held at Amit Shah’s residence, where JDS youth wing president Nikhil Kumaraswamy and former MP Kupendra Reddy too were present.

Bilkis Bano case: Three convicts seekmore time to surrender, SC to hear plea on Jan 19

by

NEW DELHI: Three convicts in the case of gangrape of Bilkis Bano and murder of seven of her family members during the 2002 riots in Gujarat moved the Supreme Court on Thursday seeking extension of time to surrender. One of the convicts had on Wednesday sought extension of four weeks, beyond January 22, to surrender to the jail authorities.

The other two convicts are Ramesh Rupabhai Chandana and Mitesh Chimanlal Bhat.

The top court on January 8 had quashed the Gujarat government’s decision to grant remission to 11 convicts in the case, saying the orders were “stereotyped” and passed without application of mind. It had asked the convicts to surrender before jail authorities in two weeks.

The matter seeking extension of time was mentioned before a bench of Justices B V Nagarathana and Sanjay Karol on Thursday. The bench then issued directions to the Registry to seek orders from CJI DY Chandrachud for reconstitution of the bench tomorrow (Jan 19) to take up the applications.

“It is stated by three respondents that applications have been filed for an extension of time to surrender and report to jail. Since the bench has to be reconstituted, registry to seek orders from CJI for reconstitution of the bench since time expires on Sunday (Jan 21),” the bench said

Convict Govindbhai Nai, in his application filed before the Supreme Court, had stated that he is the only caregiver for his ailing 88-year-old father, who is bedridden and completely dependent on him. He stated that his father is an elderly man suffering from asthma and in poor health and that he recently underwent surgery, including an angiography, and is scheduled for another operation for the treatment of hemorrhoids. He also mentioned that his mother is 75 years of age and also in poor health. Nai also said that he also a father of 2 children who are completely dependent on him for their financial and other needs.

‘We go to bed on empty stomach:Millions of Afghans go hungry as winter cold bites

by

Khurma had to borrow her neighbour’s shoes to walk to Pul-e Alam city to collect a cash handout being given to the growing number of vulnerable Afghans who are struggling to survive the winter.

The 45-year-old widow waited in her threadbare blue burqa to receive 3,200 Afghanis ($45) from the UN World Food Programme (WFP) in the eastern Afghan city, where temperatures can drop well below freezing.

“We are desperate,” the mother-of-six told AFP. “When we can’t find any bread, we go to bed on an empty stomach.”

She is one of millions facing months of hunger and cold, with natural disasters and displacement putting more Afghans at risk even as funding to one of the world’s poorest countries — wracked by decades of war — has plummeted.

“Things were already quite catastrophic” in Afghanistan, said Caroline Gluck, spokesperson for the UN refugee agency, UNHCR. “But as winter starts we have two massive emergencies.”

Thousands of people are still sleeping in tents in Herat province after successive earthquakes in October destroyed or rendered uninhabitable 31,000 homes.

And around half a million Afghans fleeing deportation from Pakistan have returned in recent months to a country where unemployment is rife, “at the worst possible time of the year”, Gluck said.

Rabbani, 32, is one of them.

As a refugee, he is entitled to WFP aid: 50 kilograms (110 pounds) of flour, six kilograms of red beans, five litres of oil and 450 grams of salt.

But, “there is no work here”, he said.

When freezing temperatures set in, his family of seven abandoned the tent they had occupied since crossing from Pakistan for a shack.

“When there is nothing left to eat, death is better than begging.”

Food emergency

Shakar Gul, 67, had just received the first of six monthly payments of 3,200 Afghanis from the WFP.

“If we adults don’t have enough to eat for several days, that’s okay… but we don’t let our children die of hunger,” she said.

With the money she will be able to buy household essentials — but only enough for 15 days.

This year, there is less assistance, due in part to a spike in humanitarian emergencies around the world and donor fatigue.

“Excluded people still come here and wait, especially women,” said Baryalai Hakimi, director of the WFP’s Pul-e Alam centre. “They are upset. We explain to them that the people who get help are more vulnerable than they are.”

Such is the case for Bibi Raihana. Aged 40, she has eight children, a husband in prison, health problems and “not a single Afghani”.

Her eyes were wet with tears behind the mesh of her burqa.

“My name wasn’t on the lists. They didn’t give me anything,” she said.

This winter, 15.8 million Afghans need assistance, with 2.8 million at an emergency level of food insecurity, said Philippe Kropf, spokesperson for WFP, which provides 90 percent of food aid in Afghanistan.

Funding shortages have forced WFP to tighten the criteria for aid handouts, with just six million people eligible for emergency assistance in food, cash or vouchers, Kropf added.

“It leaves a gap of 10 million people.”

Once flush with humanitarian aid following the US-led invasion of the country, funding to Afghanistan has plummeted since the Taliban returned to power in mid-2021, in part over the many restrictions imposed on women.

Today, approximately 85 percent of Afghans live on less than $1 a day, according to the UN, with extreme poverty found in both rural and urban areas.

The poorest are left with distressing choices: fall into debt, take their kids out of school to work in the streets, or marry off young daughters to lessen household expenses.

‘Only God’

In a desert an hour’s drive from Pul-e Alam, WFP distributed essentials in the Baraki Barak district.

Hunched in the back of a three-wheeled flatbed, 77-year-old Zulfiqar said his family sometimes goes hungry for days.

“When we have nothing left to eat, we just wrap ourselves in our shawls and sleep,” he said.

In the poverty-stricken Kabul suburbs, thousands of returnees from Pakistan have sought aid.

The Taliban authorities provided assistance at the border to the returnees, but government welfare programs are very limited.

Depending on eligibility, UNHCR distributes a maximum of $375 per person, sometimes much less.

Najiba arrived in Afghanistan two months ago with her husband and three children.

All five sleep on the floor in a room in her brother’s house.

“We fill cans with hot water to keep warm, we don’t have any wood,” she said, rocking her youngest child in the courtyard. Her other children were barefoot nearby, despite the cold.

Benazira’s fate is just as uncertain: at 34, she has eight daughters, a son and a sick husband.

Clutching the money she had just received from UNHCR, she asked for help counting the crisp, unfamiliar US dollars — $340, enough to survive three weeks.

“Only God is with us,” she said, before setting off on the hours-long journey to Nangarhar province, where her family sleeps in a brickyard.

Experts hopeful as Karnataka sees dip in Covid cases

by

BENGALURU: A month after the number of Covid positive cases witnessed an uptick, following the discovery of the new variant JN.1, the state is now witnessing a downward trend in the number of active positive cases, test positivity rate, and hospitalisation. Experts say that the trend and the data recorded in the last few days is encouraging.

The state witnessed a surge in the number of COVID-19 cases by mid-December.

The number of tests being conducted also ramped up from around 700 tests per day to 8,000 per day. From just 79 active cases on December 19, 2023, the cases kept swelling till it reached 1,000 positive cases by December 31, and by Jauary 4, the cases had reached 1240.

From then on, the number of active cases saw a downward trend. By January 10, the active cases stood at 974 and on Tuesday (16th Jan) the cases are down to 751.

Dr Rajath Athreya, Senior Consultant and HOD Paediatrics and Neonatology, Sakra World Hospital, Bengaluru, told TNIE, “We are seeing a downward trend in the positivity rate, number of active cases, and hospitalisations. The infection is trending down.” He said that a similar scenario was seen in Kerala a few weeks earlier.

“We need to watch the trend, and as of now, in the last few days, the trend has been encouraging. Stay cautious and wait for more information to become available,” said Dr Athreya and added that people should continue to wear masks and take precautions.

Health Commissioner Randeep D attributed the declining trend in positive cases to fewer tests being conducted, due to festivals.

Practo, a digital integrated healthcare company, said that from November to December 2023, their platform witnessed a staggering 10X increase in the number of COVID-19 consultations, with a notable spike observed in the last two weeks of December.

Bengaluru contributed to the largest share of consults with a significant 53 percent of consultations coming from the city, followed by Delhi with 15 percent, Hyderabad with 14 percent, Chennai with 7 percent, Mumbai with 5 percent, and Pune with 4 percent.

“The year-end spike (last 2 weeks of December) signifies that the holiday season, which results in many group gatherings and events, could be one of the reasons for a rise in the number of cases,” revealed insights from Practo.

Over two dozen celebrities have pledged their support for this initiative.
