Mangaluru: Challenging procedure performed successfully at Indiana Hospital & Heart Institute

January 28, 2023Amazing Feats, Business & Economy, Karnataka (under research project), Science & Technologympositiveone@gmail.com

Mangaluru, KARNATAKA:

Indiana Hospital & Heart Institute, in yet another milestone, performed a minimally invasive procedure using a transcatheter technique on a Kenyan patient who was advised redo bypass surgery where she was first treated.

A 65-year-old lady from Kenya who had mitral valve disease had undergone bypass surgery and the valve was replaced in 2014 at a hospital in Ahmedabad. After a gap of 8 years, she had degeneration of the valve; in other words, the artificial valve started malfunctioning which resulted in heart failure. This condition was further worsened with respiratory issues and pulmonary hyper-tensions. When she came back to the same hospital in Ahmedabad, they advised to change the valve again, meaning repeating the surgery which was a risky affair.

The patient party came to know of Indiana Hospital and consulted Dr Yusuf Kumble who advised an alternative option of not undergoing any bypass surgery. He suggested that the valve can be changed without removing the old valve through an interventional technique and was very challenging. The entire procedure was completed within one hour successfully. “Valve in valve technique is one of the rare situations where the mitral valve is replaced without opening the heart. It is called trans catheter mitral valve replacement,” said Dr Yusuf Kumble cardiologist and managing director, Indiana Hospital.

Dr Yusuf Kumble and his doctors in Indiana Hospital did a fantastic job in one hour time. The patient was mobilized within 8 hours and was able to move out of ICU in 24 hours. The patient is ready for discharge after 5 days of hospitalisation.

It may be recalled that for the first time, TMVR was done in 2019 in Karnataka at Indiana Hospital, Karnataka. TMVR, also known as transcatheter mitral valve replacement, is a relatively recent technique of replacing the mitral valve in the heart without the need for conventional open-heart surgery.

Dr Apoorva S, medical director, Dr Ali Kumble, chairman, Indiana Hospital, and Dr Sandhya Rani was also present.

Shah Rashid Ahmed Khadri, a 67-year-old Bidri craftsperson from Bidar, is among the Padmashri Award winners this year.

He gained instant popularity when he sat working with his tools on the Karnataka Tableau at the Republic Day parade in 2011.

The Khadris were a family of limited means and Rashid could study only up to PU. His father, however, did not want him to be a Bidri craftsman as he felt they did not earn enough. He enrolled Rashid into English typewriting course. However, he began assisting his father who began losing eyesight due to old age.

He is a winner of Shilpa Guru Award, Rajyotsava Award and national award for handicrafts. He is a regular invitee to the Suraj Kund Mela, Dilli Haat and other exhibitions in India.

He has also served as a procurer for the Cauvery handicrafts museum in Bengaluru and a master trainee for various various craftsman training programmes of the Central and State governments.

His creations have been exhibited in the U.S., Europe, West Asia and Singapore.

He said that he had never expected this honour. “I miss my father today. I am sure he would have been happier than I am,” he said.

Bengaluru: Alternative Literary Festival Organised To Counter Exclusion Of Muslim Writers From Govt Funded Conference

January 17, 2023Arts, Culture & Entertainment, Books (incl.Biographies - w.e.f.01 jan 2018 ), Community Involvement / Social Issues, Events, Exhibitions, Conferences (wef. Nov 18th, 2021), Karnataka (under research project), Women/Girls(since May26-2021)mpositiveone@gmail.com

KARNATAKA :

A parallel literary conference was held in Bengaluru on January 8, 2023, in response to the alleged exclusion of Muslim writers from the Kannada Sahitya Sammelana organised by the Kannada Sahitya Parishat, a non-profit organisation, funded by the Karnataka government.

Activists and writers in Karnataka expressed their disappointment at the lack of diversity at the Kannada Sahitya Sammelana, leading a group of them to organise a more inclusive event, the ‘Jana Sahitya Sammelana’. Banu Mushtaq and Dr. Mudnakudu Chinnaswamy were the chief guests at the Jana Sahitya Sammelana.

Dalit writer and Sahitya Akademi award winner Mudnakudu Chinnaswamy highlighted the threat of the imposition of Hindi on classical languages such as Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, and Odia. He also spoke about the attempts to erase Mahatma Gandhi’s legacy, and the exclusion of Muslims from every sphere of public life. “The exclusion of Muslim writers from the literary fest in Haveri was part of a wider agenda of pushing out Muslims from the mainstream,” he said.

Purushottama Bilimale, a prominent Kannada scholar, criticised Kannada writers and representative organisations for their lack of action in addressing the various crises facing the Kannada language and the state of Karnataka. Bilimale specifically mentioned the attacks on syncretic culture as a crisis that needs attention. He pointed out the lack of proper platforms for discussing these issues and expressed disappointment towards the Kannada Sahitya Sammelana for not addressing them. He suggests the organization of conventions like the Janasahitya Sammelana in various regions of the state of Karnataka to help address these issues.

The conference featured poetry, speeches, and panel discussions that focused on resistance and inclusion.

The Jana Sahitya Sammelana was put together by members of various organisations such as Samudaya, Democratic Youth Federation of India, AIDWA, Dalita Sangharsha Samiti, Ondede, Journalist Study Centre, and many others. Actors and activists like Prakash Raj and Dr. Akkai Padmashali were also present as guests and speakers at the conference. The conference was held at the Alumni Hall of the University of Visvesvaraya College of Engineering.

We should be rehabilitated, say Tipu descendants

Bengaluru:

In the backdrop of the dissolution of the Tipu Sultan Waqf Estate (TSWE) which was chaired by Congress MLA Tanveer Sait, descendants of Tipu Sultan suggested that the new committee should rehabilitate all of them using revenue generated from said properties.

They added that they should especially get some monetary benefit from the properties for essential matters like health care and education. They also demanded establishment of a library and a research centre, which would deal with Tipu’s history.

They also said that historical structures could do with better upkeep, for which at least four of them be made members of the new committee when it is formed. Mansoor Ali, who is married to Rahimunissa, a descendant of the 18th century sultan from one of his younger sons, said that he was thankful to the Waqf Tribunal for its judgement, which was favourable to them. “We will approach the government and demand rehabilitation of the entire family,” he said.

“Instead of asking votes in the name of Tipu Sultan, at least give minimum help by way of medical and educational help to the family of Tipu Sultan who are in difficulty. We are not demanding palaces, nor are we demanding properties.

We are saying that we be included in the managing committee, which deals with the upkeep of places like Masjide-Aalaa and religious activities,” he added. Mansoor said that the earlier committee hadn’t been following waqf by-laws. “We had approached the High Court who referred the matter to the Waqf Tribunal. In 2021, Rahimunissa told the court that the committee (TSWE) has not been made according to the by-laws.

As per the rules, the committee should not have a chairman for more than two terms. It ought not to have two vice chairmen. The Secretary should be an ex-official. There should be an audit report every 11 months. There should be a meeting every month because they are heritage properties. There should have been a research centre and a library.

“Despite these deficiencies, he (Sait) used his political influence, as an MLA, as a Waqf Board member to violate by-laws and misused his power. However, we got justice from the judiciary. When he claimed that we were not real descendants, we produced documents to prove that as well,” he said.

At the age of 15, he not only represented India at the International Karate Championship in Sri Lanka, but also won the competition.

“After winning the competition in Sri Lanka, I decided to pursue a career in fitness. My family has been very supportive, and my father keeps me inspired,” Ashar told News Trail.

Ashar underwent several certification programmes including those offered by the National Academy of Wellness, the Diploma in Fitness and American Counselling on Exercise (ACE) before registering for the Musclemania competition in 2022. With a belief that fitness goes beyond physical transformation, the muscleman has also trained and transformed over 600 people across the world over a span of eight years.

As a coach, he works on bringing out the hidden potential in his clients. Ashar has now been selected for the Asian Division competition. “I am extremely happy about my achievements. I’m keen and preparing myself with the hope of representing my country in the next competition,” he said.
