Google Maps image showing crack at Rani Jhari tourist spot triggers concern in Chikkamagaluru
Chikkamagaluru: A Google Maps image depicting a crack at the popular Rani Jhari tourist spot near Kalasa in Chikkamagaluru district has caused widespread concern among locals and tourists. The image, which recently went viral on social media, has led many to fear for the safety of the area, especially in light of recent landslides and natural disasters triggered by heavy rains in the region.
Rani Jhari, also known as Rani Jhari Edge Point, is a well-known trekking destination. The image has sparked panic among social media users, who are worried that the hillock might be at risk due to the ongoing heavy rainfall in the Malnad region. Many users expressed concerns that the crack shown in the image could lead to further instability in the area, endangering the lives of locals and visitors alike.
In response to these fears, officials from the Revenue Department conducted an inspection of Rani Jhari and confirmed that there is no crack in the hillock as depicted in the Google Maps image. They assured the public that the area remains safe, and there is no immediate threat to residents or tourists.
Despite the heavy rains in recent days, which have further fueled concerns, authorities have reassured the public that the image on Google Maps does not accurately represent the current state of the hillock.

Eknath Shinde resigns, asked to act as caretaker chief minister
Mumbai (PTI): Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Tuesday morning met Governor C P Radhakrishnan and tendered his resignation following the results of the assembly elections.
The governor asked Shinde to act as a caretaker chief minister till a new CM is sworn in.
Shinde visited the Raj Bhavan along with deputy Chief Ministers Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar.
The term of the Maharashtra assembly ends on November 26.
Despite the Mahayuti alliance of the BJP, Shinde-led Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar's NCP securing a massive victory, winning 230 seats in the 288-member assembly, consensus has eluded the ruling combine’s leaders so far on who should be the next CM.
