Title : Need to check the spread of ‘GUNI’ disease in Nittor, Hubli, Gubbi Taluka and surrounding areas in Karnataka.
SHRI S. MALLIKARJUNIAH (TUMKUR): Sir, I would like to invite the attention of this House regarding the spread of a deadly disease ‘GUNI’ in Nittoor, Hubli, Gubbi Talukas and surrounding areas, which claimed several lives. It requires immediate steps to check this disease. Several people have been hospitalised, and are not getting relief in spite of the best efforts by the local Doctors and the State Administration.
I, therefore, urge upon the Government to take immediate steps to find out the cause of this deadly disease, and its effective treatment. They should rush an expert team to study in detail about this deadly disease in order to save the precious lives of the people, and also to prevent its further spreading throughout the country.
