Thursday came with a dangerous problem for the people of Kheni village in Uttara Kannada. Sushila Gavaskar, an 80-year-old resident of the village passed away, and the residents had to take

her body to the cremation ground. Except, the bridge connecting Kheni village to its cemetery collapsed a year ago, and the stream underneath has been filled with water, thanks to the heavy

rain that has been lashing coastal Karnataka in the past week.
