అసలు ఈ ఆంధ్ర రాష్ట్రంలో కర్నూలు జిల్లాలో ఏం జరుగుతుంది నోట్ల కోసం వ్యాపారస్తులను ఓట్ల కోసం మత మౌడ్యాలను సంతృప్తి పరుస్తున్న ఆంధ్ర రాజకీయాలు మధ్యలో అన్యమతస్తుల నుంచి రోగాలను అంటించుకుని అధిక ధరలతో సరుకులు కొని సతమతమవుతున్న మధ్యతరగతి శ్రామిక వర్గం ప్రజలు.కర్నూలు ఎమ్మెల్యే దగ్గరుండి నర్సుతో ఒక మతపెద్ద కాళ్ళు ఎందుకు పట్టించాల్సి వచ్చింది? ఆ నర్సు అంత పెద్ద తప్పు ఏం చేసింది? ఒకవేళ తప్పుచేసినా శిక్షించడానికి ఆయనెవరు? కేంద్రం కొత్తగా తీసుకొచ్చిన ఆర్డినెన్స్ ప్రకారం ఈయనపై చట్టపరమైన చర్యలు ఎందుకు తీసుకోకూడదు? అసలు కర్నూలులో ఏం జరుగుతోంది? రాజకీయాలతో సంబంధం లేకుండా ప్రభుత్వ యంత్రాంగం ఉన్నదా లేదా అనే అనుమానం కర్నూలు జిల్లా వాసులకు కర్నూలు జిల్లా గ్రామ అది మండలాల తాలూకాల ప్రజలకు అనుమానం వస్తుంది…

News Verification: Lockdown is going on nationwide in India due to the Corona disaster. Meanwhile, reports of attacks on doctors and police are also continuously coming out. Police and medical teams have been attacked in many areas of the country and more in the Muslim areas. In such a situation, people are angry about these incidents on social media.

After Tablighi Jamaat community spread of the virus, people are sharing any event by connecting it to a particular Muslim community.

Kurnool police verified the fake claim on Facebook stating, “That person is a highly diabetic patient and his eyes are also not good because of diabetes.
He accidentally put a gate on his leg that was there in that building and a lot of BLOOD started coming out and as he is diabetic the nurse started to put cotton and a bandage

later as the blood was not stopping as he was injured badly they shifted to GGH KNL in Ambulance as the wound was severe and for diabetic patients, without care it might create a big problem to him

The nurse was doing her job and treating the patient to stop the blood. --- DD I&PR KNL”

When we did a reverse image search on Google, we came to know the truth of this incident. In fact, we found a post on April 23 on the Facebook page of Abdul Hafeez, in which it was written that the claims running on social media with this picture are false. Abdul Hafeez said, "This picture was taken in March. We were at the Quarantine Center at Rayalaseema  University. There was a man's leg injury and the nurse was attending him. The situation was a bit critical as the one who was hurt was a diabetic patient. ”
