Coronavirus | Stay positive, says COVID-19 survivor in Bhubaneswar

Father of two speaks of swinging between uncertainty and hope
Two weeks have passed, but Jitendra Joshi is yet to overcome the dreadful days of his life last month. Mr. Joshi, a 38-year-old Bhubaneswar-based marketing executive, was extremely confident of keeping the coronavirus at bay as he followed all precautions the government has been suggesting from time to time. Around the second week of April when his wife caught a fever, he shrugged it off and started medication as is done in case of a normal flu. On the sixth day, he started experiencing fever and his well-wishers suggested he go for COVID-19 test.“We are judges and therefore, cannot act like Mughals of a bygone era ... the writ courts in the guise of doing justice cannot transcend the barriers of law,” the High Court of Karnataka observed while setting aside an order of a single judge, who in 2016 had extended the lease of a public premises allotted to a physically challenged person to 20 years contrary to 12-year period stipulated in the law.
The High Court of Karnataka on Monday declined to interfere, at present, in the investigation against a Bharatiya Janata Party worker, who is among the accused persons facing charges of circulating obscene clips, related to “morphed” images and videos clips related to Prajwal Revanna, former Hassan MP, in public domain through pen drives and other modes.
