Dist admn urges govt to declare four taluks as drought-hit in Hassan [1]

More taluks on risk of joining the bandwagon due to dryness
The district administration has sent a proposal to the government urging it to announce four taluks drought hit.
Crops have withered completely in Arsikere, Channarayapatna and Holenarsipur taluks, while 75 per cent of crops have dried due to lack of moisture content in Halebeedu hobli in Belur taluk.
