ODARPU YATRA AGAIN

YSR Congress president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, who opposed the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, plans to resume his 'Odarpu Yatra' (tour to console people) in Telangana and address a public meeting in Khammam district soon, sources said. A decision to this effect was taken at the Telangana district co-ordinators' review meeting chaired by Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy, sources said. "He plans to undertake his unfinished 'Odarpu Yatra' tour to all nine Telangana districts, except Khammam, which he has already visited," YSRCP spokesperson Gattu Ramachandra Rao told reporters here today. Dates and tour details would be announced shortly, he said, dismissing "propaganda" that the YSRCP had no base in the Telangana region. Jaganmohan Reddy plans to "console" about 250 families in the Telangana region, which would begin with a public meeting at Khammam, he said. Jaganmohan had originally undertaken his tour to console families of those who died of shock after the death of the late Y S Rajasekhara Reddy. His tour had faced stiff resistance from rival political parties and others in Telangana, due to the demand for separate statehood in the region. Since a decision has been taken on separate statehood for Telangana, the focus should now shift towards development and YSRCP is going ahead on those lines, the spokesperson said.

Doctors and hospitals got a stern message from consumer fora, which asked the Centre and the Medical Council of India (MCI) to identify and take action against the "black sheep" in the profession who did not hesitate to put patients' lives at risk for greed. "We can only suggest to MCI to take note of the prevailing atmosphere in the medical profession and identify such black sheep as are responsible for creating an impression in the public mind that they are being milked by greedy doctors. "Government should take steps to protect patients from unscrupulous medical practitioners," the East Delhi District Consumer Forum had said while directing a city-based clinic to pay...

MH 370 CRASH AREA NOT INDIAN OCEAN

The search for the missing Malaysian jet suffered yet another blow today after Australia ruled out a large area in the Indian Ocean where four acoustic signals were detected as the final resting place of the plane. The Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, Bluefin-21, completed its last mission searching the remaining areas in the vicinity of the acoustic signals detected in early April by the Towed Pinger Locator deployed from the Australian ship Ocean Shield. "The data collected on yesterday's mission has been analysed. As a result, the Joint Agency Coordination Centre can advise that no signs of aircraft debris have been found by the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle since it joined the search effort," the Joint Agency Coordination Centre that is leading the search said. "The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) has advised that the search in the vicinity of the acoustic detections can now be considered complete and in its professional judgment, the area can now b...
