Around the same time, in Karnataka, Ankola witnessed a tragic landslide that not only took lives but also severely damaged parts of the National Highway, paralysing local transport and daily life. These were not isolated incidents, but chilling reminders of how vulnerable the Western Ghats, Coastal Karnataka, and the Malnad region are during the monsoon.

It’s hard to believe that Radha Krishna Rao, my former teacher at Badriya PU College, is no more. Just a few weeks ago, during a phone conversation, he had said warmly, “Make sure you drop by the next time you’re in town.” That call must have been my first conversation with him since I left PU college, likely in the early 1990s. Despite the long gap, we spoke with the comfort and familiarity of close friends. I even pulled his leg a bit - calling him out for being the kind of teacher who could control an entire class with just a stern look.
