    Mangalorean's is quick to blame Bihar, Uttar Pradesh when children's are dying of epidemic. But in reality, Mangalore is picked in 'smart city' by PM Modi's government suffers the worst despite one of the best health care facilities available.

    Since 1991 for 25 long years, Mangalorean is voting for BJP but the city seems to be lacking basic infrastructure. Today Swatch Bharath only remains to symbolic for the photo session.

    The Mangaloreans voted for religion rather than the development of the nation.

    The total number of people affected by dengue has now increased to 426 as per the information was given by the officials of the health department. But Mangalore suffers despite the best health care facilities. While Bihar and Uttar Pradesh lack even the basics.

    In Bihar Encelipites death of children or Uttar Pradesh, Tripura and Assam deaths due to Japenese fever is seasonal. But in Mangalore Dengue and Filaritis is an all-round year.

    It is wake up call for Mangaloreans think beyond politics. Hope the deceased parents will have the patience to cope with the loved one.

    Only in manglore too much sickness due to dirty atmosphere. After MRPL manglore became home for cancer dengue and many sickness.

    Nobody paying attention for cleanliness. Just visit MRPL area you can not breathe properly they destroyed all greenery and never bothered to reinstate any green trees anywhere. They spoiled total environment, ecosystem and marine atmosphere.

    Totally messed manglore the employees are all from north Tamil and malayalees. They make money. Products all goes to Bangalore Mumbai and sickness for mangaloreans!!!
    Thank you MRPL

    Film maker Yash Chopra's wife cannot able to survive from dengue and died latter. It may be estimated film maker worth more than 2000 crores. When he failed completely how about a common man. God itself is final decision taker..nothing in our hand. We are only good to write RIP always whether it bear any results or not. We have done our duty.

    People are dying of dengue, artificial flooding at many places in the city due to unscientific construction of concrete roads and politicians enjoying resort stays. Don't let our memory be short, vote better candidates in the next election.
