Road accidents claim 5,975 lives in state in six months of 2025

Mysuru: In the first six months of 2025, as many as 5,975 people died in road accidents across the state. Karnataka recorded 21,937 accidents in this time frame, and as many as 27,456 people were injured in these accidents. According to the data shared by transport minister Ramalinga Reddy, in response to a question raised by MLC KS Naveen, in the past five and a half years, 60,115 people died in 2.13 lakh road accidents in the state. In Mysuru district alone, 1,730 accidents were reported from Jan 1 and June 30. A total of 329 people lost their lives and 1,998 persons were injured. The highest number of deaths in this time period was reported from Bengaluru (390), followed by Tumakuru (367). According to MLC Naveen, Karnataka has the biggest road network in the country. "The money collected for road safety awareness is wasted on post-accidental interventions and ineffective awareness campaigns. Tamil Nadu govt was able to bring down road accidents through an effective awareness campaign and interventions a few years ago. But in Karnataka, we failed to bring down the accidents," he said.

Every road accident has a long-lasting impact, and causes a huge loss for the SGDP," he explained. Lakshman SG, a road safety activist said that the need of the hour is more enforcement drives during night, and early morning hours. "Drunk driving on the state and national highways are more, hence vigilance outside the city limits is required to make our roads safe," he said.

‘Ujire Chalo' protest on Aug 24

Mangaluru: Sowjanya Horata Samiti will organise a 'Ujire Chalo' protest demanding an SIT probe into the murder of Sowjanya and other cases allegedly reported in Dharmasthala, in Ujire on Aug 24, said human rights activist K Dinesh Ganiga. He told reporters at the Pathrika Bhavan on Thursday, that many cases of rape, murder, and robbery were reported in Dharmasthala several years ago. A discussion on deaths reported in Dharmasthala was held in the assembly in 1983. While schoolteacher Vedavalli was allegedly murdered in 1986, student Padmalatha was raped and murdered in 1973, but the accused have not been identified yet. Accused in the alleged murder of a mahout, Narayana, and Yamuna reported in 2012, were also not traced. While Sowjanya was murdered in 2012, as many as 452 unnatural deaths were reported in Dharmasthala and Ujire between 2002 and 2012, alleged Ganiga. "Despite several such cases being reported, the miscreants involved could not be caught. This lapse on the part of police, who failed to arrest the accused, leads to mistrust about the place. Seeking investigation and arrest of the accused in all cases, a complaint has been submitted to the state chief secretary," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like These Actors from Harry Potter are all Grown up and Their Pictures Show it Watch More Undo Stating that an acquittal committee has not been formed in connection with the murder of Sowjanya, he questioned the silence of political leaders. Extending support to the ongoing SIT probe into the mass burial allegations made by the complainant witness, Ganiga said that all unnatural deaths reported in Dharmasthala should also be probed by the team. A large number of people from various parts of the state are likely to take part in the 'Ujire Chalo' protest, he said, adding that the samiti has already informed the jurisdictional police about the protest planned on Aug 24.

Woman accuses ex-husband of sharing intimate pics to ruin engagement

Ahmedabad: Gaekwad Haveli police in the city on Thursday registered an FIR after a 26-year-old woman accused her former husband of sending her private photographs and videos to her fiance in an attempt to sabotage her engagement. According to the complaint, the woman had met her former husband in 2017 at a jewellery shop where he worked. They developed a relationship and, in 2018, got married as per religious customs against their families' wishes. She later discovered that he was already married with children. The relationship soured, and the couple divorced in 2022. In late 2023, the woman's family arranged her engagement to another man, to whom she disclosed her previous marriage. In Feb 2024, her fiance allegedly received nude photographs and videos of her via WhatsApp from a number of her former husband. The media files, allegedly recorded during their relationship, were sent on multiple occasions between Feb 8 and 11, 2024.
