H D Kote| Allegation of denying crop loan: Farmer consumes poison at bank
Mysuru: In the background of reportedly being denied a crop loan, a farmer consumed insecticide at the bank in Hosaholalu village in Antarasanthe hobli on Monday afternoon in H D Kote taluk.
The farmer who ingested the poison has been identified as Ningegowda (73), a resident of Hosaholalu village. He was admitted to K R Hospital in Mysuru after he became severely ill, following the incident.
Ningegowda, who reportedly owned a four-acre land, had applied for a sugarcane crop loan at the Karnataka rural bank in Antarasanthe village. After a month, when the bank notified him that his application for a crop loan was being denied on grounds of low CIBIL rate, Ningegowda became disheartened and consumed poison in an attempted suicide on the bank premises.
A bank employee immediately telephoned Ningegowda’s son and informed him of his father’s condition. Later, a severely ill Ningegowda was admitted to the government hospital in H D Kote, where he was given primary treatment and shifted to K R Hospital in Mysuru for further treatment, it is learned.
