Kundapur, Jul 2: Rapid sea erosion is occurring at Kodikanyana and Manoor Padukere of Kota Hobali. Many houses and roads are in danger of being washed away.

Sea erosion has intensified on B A Kanchan Road at Manoor Padukere. The road is going to be washed away completely and cut off the connecting road if the high waves in the sea do not subside for next two or three days. Same situation prevails on Lilly Fernandes Road. Houses on the sea shore are facing danger of getting washed away into the sea.

Officer of fisheries and ports department Dias visited Padukare on Friday and inspected the situation. Gram Panchayat member Bhujanga Gurikara was present.

Sea erosion is also noticed in various parts of Hosabengre and Kodi Kanyana under Kodi gram panchayat limits. Danger is looming large on houses and connecting road. Gram panchayat president and members visited the spot and gave report to the tahsildar of Brahmavar.

    Why not state and central adopt some scientific method and end the sea erosion problem once for all?. Its going on for several decades. It is not a rocket technology!? Money spent on shoddy work could have had permanent solution throughout the Karnataka coast. Why state and central is lethargic on this matter? Politicians and contractors and babu's need continue leaching of tax payer eh?

    Poor people on the coasts used to suffer silently for a long time... Only nowadays thanks to exposure by Daijiworld and other news channels authorities are forced to act and compensate... Not that state govt has no money... We are one of the richest states in India... Downtrodden are neglected and suppressed unless their plight is made public...
