Davangere, July 03: Depressed over not getting a job despite being the graduate, a youth committed suicide by hanging himself to a tree at his field at Hosanagar village in channagiri on Tuesday after sending a 30 seconds WhatsApp video message to Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy.

The deceased is identified as graduate B Anil (21).

He is the last son among three sons of Babu Nayak and Geeta Bai. Anil was supposed to go to Dharwad on July 4 for competitive exams. Though he was confident of getting the government job through competitive exams, the poverty of his family was a big problem to him. Depressed over this, he has gone to his field today morning.

Sitting under a tree, he recorded a 30 seconds video and sent it to CM H D Kumaraswamy. In his video, he asked the CM to eradicate unemployment and find a permanent solution to the poor and rural graduates and respond to his appeal. Later he sent the video to his relatives and friends.

In his one page death note, he said that both central and state governments have not been creating job opportunities. As a result, poor and rural graduates were suffering due to lack of job opportunities, he said in the death note and committed suicide.

Durban, Nov 8: Sanju Samson scored a scintillating century as India inflicted a 61-run defeat on South Africa in the first T20I here on Friday.

Invited to bat, Samson blazed away to 107 off 50 balls, hitting as many as 10 sixes and seven fours to help India post 202 for 8.

The spin duo of Varun Chakaravarthy (3/25) and Ravi Bishnoi (3/28) then shared six wickets between them to bowl out South Africa for 141 in 17.5 overs.

Earlier, Samson became the first Indian to score back-to-back centuries in T20Is.

The opener notched his second T20I hundred off just 47 balls. His first had come in India's last outing against Bangladesh last month.

However, South Africa clawed their way back into the game as they stemmed the flow of runs by picking wickets in the last five overs.

Pacer Gerald Coetzee who claimed three wickets was the pick of the bowlers for the hosts.

Brief Scores:

India: 202 for 8 in 20 overs (Sanju Samson 107, Tilak Verma 33; Gerald Coetzee 3/37)

South Africa: 141 all out in 17.5 overs (Heinrich Klaasen 25; Varun Chakaravarthy 3/25, Ravi Bishnoi 3/28)
