According to police, seven dacoits came to Vasudev Asranna's house asking for a medicine to cure skin disease. Asranna family is known for providing ayurveda medicine for skin diseases. The family members told them they don't give medicine as it was late in the night and asked them to come next day.

The gang left the house only to come back after some time. This time, they broke open the door and entered the house. They threatened the family members and fled with valuables. Police sources said the gang had come to priest's house thinking that there is 'treasure' inside. Finger print experts and canine squad were presses into service. Police suspect it is a handiwork of localites.

M Chandra Sekhar, city police commissioner, who visited the spot on Tuesday morning, said two teams have been formed to nab the culprits.

Mysuru, Jun 18: The Karnataka government's proposal announced on Thursday to hold online classes for students amid concerns over COVID-19 has not gone down well with thousands of tribal students residing in villages across the state.

A team from Karnataka State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (KSCPCR) visited a few tribal hamlets in Mysuru and Kodagu recently and found that the students, unlike their urban counterparts, lack accessibility to not just smartphones and computers, but basic necessities like power supply.

''When such is the situation in the tribal hamlets, how can you expect students to catch up on their studies if classes are held online?'' wondered M L Parashurama Member, KSCPCR, who toured villages like Thithimathi, Beematagere, Devamachchi and Gaddadi in Kodagu's Virajpet taluk, besides Bavali, Balyadi, Machchuru, and Anemone in Mysuru's HD Kote taluk along with Chairperson Antony Sebastian.
