Massive Tree Falls on Road Near Bantwal
Bantwal: A large, old tree came crashing down on the Mani–Mysuru State Highway near Parlotu, close to Neralakatte in Bantwal, causing a temporary disruption to traffic movement on Thursday. Fortunately, no vehicles were passing at the time of the incident, preventing what could have been a serious accident.
The incident occurred on the morning of Independence Day, a public holiday when vehicular traffic was lighter than usual. Due to the reduced number of vehicles on the road, no injuries or damage were reported.
Local residents quickly responded to the situation, taking up the task of clearing the fallen tree to restore traffic flow. Their prompt action helped in removing the obstruction without any delay from emergency services.
The fallen tree had blocked a significant portion of the highway, which serves as a key route connecting several towns. Officials have been informed, and further clearance and safety inspections are expected to be carried out.
This incident once again highlights the need for regular inspection and removal of weak or old roadside trees to ensure public safety, especially along busy highways.

Bantwal: In a shocking incident, a large number of Aadhaar cards bearing the addresses of residents from Pudu village were found dumped along the banks of the Netravathi River near Farangipete’s Tenth Mile area in Bantwal.
The matter came to light on Tuesday evening when local residents noticed Aadhaar cards floating in the river and scattered along the riverbank. They immediately alerted other villagers, following which several people rushed to the spot and verified the discovery.
Many of the recovered Aadhaar cards reportedly carried the addresses of households in Pudu village. The incident has triggered panic and anger among residents, who questioned how such an important identity document could end up abandoned in this manner.
Reacting to the development, Pudu Gram Panchayat President Ramlan Maripalla said that several villagers had not received their Aadhaar cards and were forced to pay money at cyber centers to obtain copies. The discovery of thousands of Aadhaar cards along the riverbank raises serious concerns, he said, demanding that those responsible be identified and held accountable.

Warning of agitation, Maripalla said that if strict action is not taken against the culprits, villagers, along with the Gram Panchayat, would stage a protest in front of the post office.
Residents have urged the concerned department to immediately launch a thorough investigation into the incident and ensure accountability.
