Farmers Block Mysuru-Bengaluru Highway: Who Will Answer for Their Grievances?
Protest Highlights Farmers' Struggles
A significant protest erupted at the Mysuru-Bengaluru highway toll plaza, where a large gathering of farmers, orchestrated by Melukote MLA Darshan Puttannaiah and Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha leader Badagalapura Nagendra, blocked traffic for two hours. This demonstration underscores the ongoing struggles faced by farmers in Karnataka.
