The deceased have been identified as Shankaracharya (50), his wife Nirmala (44) and their daughters Shruthi (24) and Shreya (21).

Shankaracharya was running a Jewellery shop in Padubelle for past 30 years. Shruti had cracked Chartered Accountant (CA) exam after completing MBA while Shreya was studying MBA at a private college in Manipal.

It is learnt that Shruti was supposed to marry a man from Karkala, who is working in Hyderabad next month. However, her engagement got cancelled due to a birth of a child in the bridegroom’s family.

It is said that the four consumed poison after mixing it with food. The reason for the shocking step is yet to be known.

According to sources, Shankaracharya had gone to Udupi on Wednesday. After that no one spotted him in Padubelle. On Thursday morning the neighbours discovered that all the members of the family had committed suicide.

Shankaracharya had suffered huge loss couple of years ago, but he had managed to overcome financial difficulties. In the recent days he had employed 15 goldsmiths to make jewellery.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Saturday demanded that the state government drop its plan to provide doorstep delivery of liquor.

"After faltering in mopping up revenue, the state government is mulling over allowing doorstep delivery of liquor by enabling online sales and starting new MSIL liquor shops in rural areas. I demand that the state government drop its plans," he tweeted.

"I came to know that the excise commissioner is keen to hold talks with a private firm to enable online sale of liquor. The government should back out from such a foolish decision. Otherwise, agitation is inevitable," Kumaraswamy said.

He said opening new liquor shops or online delivery will ruin the health of society.

"Post-COVID outbreak and subsequent lockdown, people are facing financial distress, struggling to lead day-to-day life. 

The government must withdraw such an imprudent decision to deliver liquor at doorsteps. Opening new liquor shops or the decision of online delivery in times of distress like this will spoil society's health. 

It is not fair for the government to fill its coffers by robbing people's money," he said in a series of tweets.
