Her shack has no toilet or electricity. A team Hidaaya Foundation, a Mangaluru based Muslim philanthropic group, visited her house ensured the construction of a toilet in her house.

*Aithppa, who resides behind Divyajyothi School, Vamanjoor along with other Koragas, is a 44 year-old and is bed-ridden from the last 7 years. He is unmarried and is being taken care of by a family there. The team that visited him has promised to sponsor his medicines.

Mysuru, Feb 14: Two weeks after her engagement with another boy, a 20-year-old girl who was in love with a boy, committed suicide at her residence in Nanjangud on Wednesday.

Meghana's parents have accused her lover Manikanta of Hemmargala of abetting her suicide. The girl's father in his complaint has claimed that Manikanta threatened to send their photos to her fiance following which she took the extreme step. He has also claimed his daughter was molested by Manikanta two years ago.

Manikanta who is on the run has been booked for rape and abetting suicide following the complaint.
