Vijayawada, Jan 23: Majeti Bharat (34), a software engineer working in the U.S., has reportedly committed suicide by jumping into the Krishna river. He came to India a few days ago and was stated to be in severe depression over his job security.

drownedBharat, a native of Mangalagiri, married a woman of Hanumanpet in Vijayawada and the couple have a one-year-old boy. He had been working in a software company for four years. The family came to India to celebrate the child's birthday on January 24.

Bharat left home on January 20. After making a call to his father, M. Naga Varaprasad around 5.30 p.m, he switched off his mobile phone.

The family members lodged a complaint with the Governorpet police who launched a search. Meanwhile, the One Town police received information that a young man had jumped into the river from Prakasam Barrage around 6 p.m. on Saturday. “The police recovered a bag left by the victim and the family identified that the bag and clothes in itbelonged to Bharat. The police teams who searched in Krishna river and the canals found his body in a canal near Tummalapalli Kalakshetram on Sunday,” said Governorpet Circle Inspector P.E. Pavan Kumar Reddy.

The exact reason for the alleged suicide was not known immediately. A case under Section 174 CrPc (suspicious death) has been registered.

Family members said Bharat had been in a depressed mood for some time worried as he was about job security and used to perform pujas, said Mr. Reddy, who is investigating the case.

Bengaluru, Apr 1: The price of petrol and diesel will go up by Rs 1.60 and Rs 1.59 per litre, respectively, from Wednesday. This is in line with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa’s decision to hike the rate of tax on petrol from 32% to 35% and diesel from 21% to 24%.

He had announced this in his March 5 Budget for 2020-21 fiscal. At present, a litre of petrol costs Rs 71.97 and diesel Rs 64.41 in Bengaluru.

The government decided to roll out the hike from Tuesday midnight going into Wednesday, April 1, after briefly considering a postponement in view of the COVID-19 crisis. 

Finance Secretary (Budget & Resources) Ekroop Caur confirmed to DH that the hike will be rolled out. 

The 3% hike on fuel tax was a key resource mobilisation measure that Yediyurappa announced in his Budget. The hike is expected to fetch the government Rs 1,500 crore. 

Yediyurappa had also announced a 6% additional excise duty on Indian Made Liquor (IML), which could help the government mop up Rs 1,200 crore. However, the sale of liquor has been prohibited during the lockdown period. Plus, hiking fuel prices during the lockdown will not hit citizens very hard.
