A manager with the Udupi City Municipal Council Venkataramanaiah (49), who was being treated in a hospital for injuries he suffered in a road accident in Udupi on Sunday, passed away on Monday.
He was a resident of Kunjibettu in Udupi. He was critically injured when a car, according to the police, hit him while he was waiting to cross the divider near Kunjibettu in the afternoon on Sunday.
Prathima, wife of the deceased, in a complaint filed with Udupi Traffic Police Station, stated that the car coming from Manipal towards Udupi hit her husband injuring him grievously, due to the negligence of the car driver.
Cardiologist and MP-elect from Bengaluru Rural C.N. Manjunath, who contested from the BJP and defeated three-time Congress MP D.K. Suresh, said he was the “people’s candidate” and that it is their aspiration to see him in the Union Cabinet. In an interview with The Hindu, he claimed his victory was possible because those who were treated at the Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research became his “ambassadors”.
