Omicron likely to overtake Delta in January-February, says TAC report
Concerned over a steady rise in the number of coronavirus cases in Bengaluru in the last 10 days, the State’s COVID-19 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) has recommended a comprehensive action plan for Bengaluru.
The TAC, which held its 144th meeting on Wednesday after 400 cases were reported in Bengaluru, noted that the situation is worrisome as there is a spurt in the cases in Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Bengaluru. “From the previous experience of the two waves in Karnataka, the case the surge in Bengaluru/ Karnataka was preceded by the surge in Mumbai/ Maharashtra,” the TAC report pointed out.
Capt. Brijesh Chowta, Dakshina Kannada MP, on Saturday urged Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman to facilitate speeding up of ongoing critical infrastructure works in the region, including Mangaluru-Bengaluru NH 75 widening, establishment of Indian Coast Guard Academy, and merger of Konkan Railway Corporation with the Indian Railways.
