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, Jul 30: As the protest by Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers entered the 20th day, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Wednesday assured them that he would take up their demands with Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa.

The ASHA workers are sitting in protests with a number of demands that include a minimum salary of Rs 12,000 per month.

Assuring that their matter will be taken up, Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu said while speaking to reporters, "We know how hard ASHA workers have been working as frontline warriors in the fight against COVID-19. I will discuss with CM about their demand for a minimum wage of Rs 12,000 per month and the final decision will be taken soon."

"We went to the police to allow us to protest. Officials then took us to the CM. During the meeting, he demanded some time to sort out our issues. 

We told him we are protesting for the past 20 days and that it was he who needs to call a meeting with us. Only then will he know the problems being faced by ASHA workers," an ASHA worker said clad in her signature pink sari.

"When asked as to why salaries of ASHA workers were not hiked, while it was done for doctors and other healthcare officials, the CM requested for time to look into the matter. 

We are not much happy now, but will if he comes in front of the media and promises to sort out our issues, then we will listen to him", she added.

The department of forest has been working on using drones and setting up a centre in Mysuru or Chamarajanagar to monitor three crucial tiger reserves — Bandipur, Nagarhole, and BRT.
