‘I have 3 children, a loan of Rs.20000 to repay and a husband dying due to liver failure; except for 50 goats I have nothing in hand’, this is the heart wrenching story of Kannal Virupama from Hunur GP in Lindsugur Taluq.......thanks to alcoholism and the government’s unwillingness to ban alcohol; every day several families are going down the drain...
‘my husband is a drunkard and uses all his earnings for liquor, he beats me badly; I have breast cancer, it is very painful, but I have no money to get medical help... I have four children, the youngest one goes to anganwadi, what will happen to them if I die? I have a loan of Rs;15000 on me’, cries Nanjaldinne Uligamma of Hunur GP.
