As many as 50 people fell ill after drinking contaminated water at Arahunasi village in Ron taluk on Sunday.
People who drank water in the village complained of diarrhoea and a few among them were admitted to a nearby private hospital. The rest were admitted at Dr Bhimsen Joshi Government Hospital at Ron. Two of the victims were shifted to a hospital in Gadag. Though Arahunasi falls under Mallapura Gram Panchayat and has four Gram Panchayat members representing the village, cleanliness has taken a backseat.
