DH News Service, Mulbagal:

Residents of Majarahosur under Mudianur gram panchayat limits in the taluk staged a protest with empty pots, condemning the damage of a borewell sunk by the government, here on Monday.

The protesters alleged that a borewell was sunk in the grazing land in the village 15 years ago for supply of drinking water.

However, one Eshwarappa of Uttanur has damaged the borewell by blocking it with stones, thus destroying the lone source of drinking water in the village, they alleged.
