Karnataka: In a disturbing sight, several fishes were found lying dead on the banks of river Tunga in Matturu-Hosahalli village on Wednesday. After the incident, villagers are reportedly afraid of using the river water for potable and other purposes.
"Since the last five or six days, the colour of the river water has turned green and fishes in it have been dying. The local populace in villages use the river water for drinking but people are now afraid to do so," said Bhanu Prakash, a villager. Villagers said that officials visited the site and took samples of fishes and the water to be tested.
