Mangalore, February 13: Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda hinted at declaring a holiday if a day was fixed as the birthday of Veerarani Abbakka and the event would be celebrated at the State level.


He was speaking at the valedictory of Veerarani Abbakka Utsava-2012 at Rani Abbakka Vedike at Ucchila Bovi School Ground in Someshwara on Sunday. Commenting on the way the programme is being organised over the years, the Chief Minister said that as Abbakka Utsava has reached the ninth year, a few changes should be introduced and step should be taken while organising the Utsava in the future.

“As the programme is organised in the name of Rani Abbakka who was synonym for courage, the programme will be true to its name if women take a lead and organise the programme.

Women should come forward and take up the complete responsibility and organise the programme,” he said and asked the present organising committee office-bearers to support women to organise the Utsava in future.

Responding to the memorandum submitted by the office-bearers of Veerarani Abbakka Utsava Committee, the Chief Minister promised that he would do his best to meet their demands within the limitations. “Let a delegation approach me in the office and we will discuss the matter,” he said.

Lauding Abbakka for her courage and determination, he said the youth should learn lessons of patriotism from the life of Abbakka and get inspired from her to serve the nation.

The CM conferred Veerarani Abbakka award to littérateur Lalitha Rai and and Veerarani Abbakka Puraskara to theatre artiste Jayasheela on the occasion.

In a memorandum submitted by the Committee to the CM, they have urged to name Mangalore International Airport after Abbakka. The memorandum also urged to sanction Rs one crore in the budget for organising the 10th year of Rani Abbakka Utsava next year.

Other demands include Rs six crore for construting Veeerarani Abbakka memorial in Ullal, naming one of the main circles in Mangalore city as Rani Abbakka Circle, inclusion of life of Abbakka in the text books at the school level and others.

Deputy Speaker N Yogish Bhat, MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, Zilla Panchayat President Shailaja Bhat, MLA U T Khader, Balbhavan President Sulochana Bhat and others were present.

Bengaluru, Jun 9: A 24-year-old who wanted to experience the feeling of death lost his life after consuming pesticide — he recorded it all on TikTok — in Koratagere taluk of Tumakuru district on Saturday evening.

Chided by his mother for not earning money, Dhananjaya, a resident of Gouraganahalli, on Saturday evening bought pesticide from a shop and shot a 15-second TikTok video, saying, “I want to experience the feeling of what death would be like. I will try to kill myself.”

Locals rushed Dhananjaya to a nearby hospital where he breathed his last the next morning. Koratagere police registered a case of unnatural death.

According to police, Dhananjaya had in the past rammed his Bajaj Pulsar bike into a tree to ‘experience’ death but had survived with minor injuries. Villagers and family members had advised him to not to take such risks. But he continued to do so as he was obsessed with death and posted his opinion regularly on TikTok, where he had 431 followers.

He tied the knot four months ago and was running an autorickshaw on rent. However, his earnings reduced to zero during the lockdown and he wasn’t mentally stable, claimed villagers.

Investigators said Dhananjaya wanted to scare his mother with his suicide threat and wanted to ‘experience’ death. He consumed poison near a farm but later panicked thinking he would die. However, he was not in a position to ride back home. He called his friend, who visited the spot and shifted him to hospital on Saturday night, police said.
