To the proposal to convert Belagavi Suvarna Vidhan Soudha in Belagavi as a Covid Care Centre, Cm B S Yediyurappa said that no such decision has been made yet.
Citing the recent surge in Covid-19 infections and related fatalities in north Karnataka districts, a campaign demanding the conversion of Suvarna Vidhana Soudha — the legislature building situated in Belagavi — into a Covid Care Centre (CCC) has been gaining momentum.
Among leaders in the forefront stressing the need of converting the state legislature’s venue for winter session is Congress MLA Anjali Hemant Nimbalkar. A medically qualified doctor, Nimbalkar noted that converting Suvarna Soudha into a Covid Care Centre would come to the aid of thousands of people in Belagavi and surrounding districts of north Karnataka.
