Two men were feared drowned in rivers in the Krishna basin on Sunday.
A farmer has gone missing from Chikkalgundi village in Bagalkot district. The family members of 38-year-old Basappa Hirkanavar have lodged a complaint with the police stating that he went missing on Saturday evening.
They suspected that he was devoured by crocodiles in the Ghataprabha. He had gone to the riverbed to remove the irrigation pumpset that was fixed to the ground. “But he probably slipped and was drowned,’’ they said.
