Four families of Salakodu near Uralagallu in Bhanakuli panchayat of Sagar taluk are cut off from the rest of the taluk as the temporary foot-bridge they had put up to cross the stream has been damaged due to heavy rains in the past few days.
The families of Ramappa, Narayana, Pavithra-Nagaraj and Basavappa have no way to reach the outer world. The anganwadi centre for the children in the hamlet is about eight kilometres away at Kanuru. The villagers had put up a footbridge made of wooden poles to cross the stream.
