Bengaluru: Khadar does it again, takes accident victim to hospital


Bengaluru, Nov 6 (DHNS): Minister for Health and Family welfare U T Khadar on Wednesday took an accident victim to hospital in his car.

The minister, who was on his way back from the Kempegowda International Airport, noticed a traffic jam on Yelahanka flyover. An auto driver, Stalin, a resident of K G Halli, was severly injured as his auto had toppled.

He immediately took the injured in his car to hospital. “We thought of taking him to Columbia Asia Hospital. However, we rushed him to K C General Hospital so as to reduce financial burden on him,” Khadar said.

This is the second time that the health minister has helped an accident victim reach hospital in time in his car. A similar incident had taken place a few months ago when the minister, who was on his way to an iftar party at the Palace Grounds, had lent a helping hand to a couple.



Khadar pays up fine for using English in WhatsApp group on Rajyotsava day

Daijiworld Media Network – Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Nov 5: M Friends, a WhatsApp group, levied a fine of Rs 330 on state minister for health, U T Khadar, for failing to stick to the condition that all messages sent through this group on Rajyotsava day should be compulsorily in Kannada. He paid a fine of Rs 330 through the administrator of the group, and judges.

M Friends, which has been active in the city and surrounding areas in the field of creating awareness about health besides serving ailing patients at hospitals, decided to celebrate Rajyotsava in a unique way. The group wanted all its members to use Kannada that day, with the condition that failure to do so will attract fine of Rs 10 per word. Anyone using a language other than Kannada between 8 am and 10 pm that day was to be penalized this way. Khadar was fined for sending an advertisement that had appeared in English through this group.

Administrator of the group, Rashid, had nominated two judges for deciding on the fine. Fines were collected even for contents of photos or videos forwarded by the members. The group collected a total of Rs 13,650 that day. After one of the members contributed Rs 1,350, the collection went up to Rs 15,000.

With the amount collected, the group plans to provide Kannada literary books worth Rs 15,000 to 'Snehadeep', an NGO involved with looking after HIV/AIDS affected children. Last year too such an initiative had been undertaken, and the amount collected as fine was donated towards medicines supplied through a health camp held at Vogga in Bantwal taluk.

    Hi All, After going through the discussion in the comment section, I thought it is obliging on my part to introduce a name her. Mr. Hasanabba Charmady popularly known as "Charmady Hasanaaba" has been doing this for the last 35 years. Police claims that he has saved more than 500 lives in the charmady ghat region of 23 kms and otherwise as reported by a national daily. Apart from this he also becomes the prime witness to lot many cases. His personal vehicle becomes the ambulance. His lungi becomes stretcher.At 63 any call at any time of the day or night about accidents or any scene of the same throws him into action.

    First and foremost I congratulate Khadar for doing a good job.
    At the same time, I want to remind him that he has been made minister to help the people and also to reach to their concerns. It is Khadars duty and not something unusual, that needs to be highlighted in the media.

    Good Job done by Minister and thumbs Up

    When it was reported Sushma Swaraj also helped accident victims congi supportes like Jossey and bannur were not kind to her and accused it as publicity stunt.

    However request minister
    1. Since you cannot be present everywhere please strengthen emergency support services
    2. As a misnister for you it is easy to admit victims to hospital, if a comman man does it and then his life will be made hell by corrupt police

    @SK mangaluru,as you say it is everybodys duty to do so.As you read or heard unfortunately no one did it and the Minister saw a Person who is in Need and helped him.we always have that thinking someone will do it,the next also thinks why the previous one didnt do.?But it was a noble gust to take him to Hospital ,first as a human helper in Need,second he is also health Minister.so infuture please Change your way of thinking.as a Minister he could have called a taxi and ordered someone to take care of.He is a Minister still remained as a human with both legs on the erdsurface ,not yet flown in the air.Hope he will remain there to serve human beings for sometime as Minister.selden you will have a Person like him.

    Reaching an accident victim to hospital is a great service in a city like Bengaluru. Will Bengaluru traffic ever cease to be normal?
