BENGALURU: A 55-year-old-woman marching towards town from Chitradurga, challenging a ban on liquor, died after a rushing motorbike hit her close to Kuluvanahalli, Nelamangala, on NH 48 on Sunday evening.

Around 10pm, Renukamma was once about to go the street after having dinner. “A motorbiker rammed Renukamma and sped. She was once immediately shifted to a close-by health center, but succumbed to injuries early Monday,” Nelamangala police said.
Convenor of the motion Vidya Patil said Renukamma was once part of the campaign for 5 years and had a physically challenged daughter who was once dependent on her.
Nelamangala site visitors police have arrested the two-wheeler rider.

Most protesters are from agricultural background and claim their households were destroyed due to alcohol addiction of their menfolk. Around 15 nurses in 4 ambulances are following them.
“Food and refuge were organized at religious places. On Sunday, we visited Siddaganga mutt and spent the night there. On Monday, we are halting at Madanayakanahalli,” Shanta Bai, a resident of Janakal, close to Hosadurga, said.
The girls from throughout 23 districts duvet 20km every day and keep in villages where they invent consciousness amongst girls on unwell effects of liquor.
