It is on the road connecting Balehonnur with Kalasa
Heavy rains that lashed parts of Chikkamagaluru district on October 11 evening hit normal life. A bridge near Mahalgodu in N.R.Pura taluk on the road connecting Balehonnur with Kalasa collapsed, obstructing the movement of traffic. The police have put up barricades to prevent motorists from taking the route. A couple of bikers were stuck on the road amidst rains. Local people took them to safety.
Many places, including Kottigehara, Charmadi ghat, Banakal and Jawali, received heavy rains.
After Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly R. Ashok’s prediction on Saturday that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah will step down in November 2025 triggered intense political discussions in the State, Home Minister G. Parameshwara on Sunday said Mr. Siddaramaiah will continue for the full five-year term.
