About a month ago, the inhabitants of Maduvanahalli in Kollegal Taluk were witnessed by a bizarre view of the youth on higher sections of metal structures supporting cables with high tension cables passing through the village.
Regardless of the screams of their mother and the plea of other villagers who gathered under them and warned him against any extreme step, youth, identified as Masanasketty, 27, waved people and kept an electric wire with a high voltage with her hands to immediately be electricity.
Although his unsuccessful love life is abounded, his suicide was attributed to their search for their search for a suitable life partner who did not give any result, a formula that became common in the countryside of the old Mysore area. Masanashettes fell into depression after the futile search of the bride.
“It is really difficult in the villages today,” said Nataraj, a journalist with a folk day in a collegal, who also sought an alliance for his son in the last two years, but in vain.
Attractive to the almighty
Due to the lack of brides, especially in the youth who are engaged in agricultural activities, young men from various villages in the district of Mandya pulled Padayatras into religious shrines in the Malai Mahadeshwara (MM) hills, located in Hanur Taluk of Chamarajanagar in recent years.
One such Padayatra was eliminated by a group of 50 young men from Averlaylli in the Mandya district to MM Hills in March this year. One of the young people who was part of a more than 110 km long Padayatra said that the search for a “divine intervention” in his efforts for a life partner was one of the main reasons for their march.
“We will also pray for good rain and good harvest. But we will look for the blessing of the Almighty to help us get the brides,” she said, expressing disappointment over girls and their parents, throwing marital alliance from young men who dealt with agricultural activities in rural parts of the state.
“They prefer alliances from men who are in government service and have property in cities such as Bengaluru and Mysur. If no one gets to children farmers, what would their fate be?” he asked.

Although the tradition of Padayatra to religious shrines has long been with the older ones who were part of Padayatra, stopped in the villages of Enroute and were looking for suitable marital alliances for their children, km ShivaPrasad of Malavalli Taluk from the district of Mandya, said Bachmacharigal, said Bachlanata sangala. Bachlanataka Brahmacharigal said she said that Bachlanataka Brahmacharigal, said Bachlanataka Brahmacharigal, who is founded, Akhila. Removing Padayatras about three years ago.
ShivaPrasad, also the bachelor himself, remembered their first Padayatra, which he planned about three years ago after a hopelessly bad reaction of eligible brides for a mass program organized by the local religious mutt.
“While thousands of eligible grooms have registered in the program, the number of brides has barely exceeded 250,” he said. Therefore, they planned a padayatra of young men from villages who were unable to find brides even after crossing 30 years, up hills mm.

ShivaPrasad explained the gravity of the situation and stated that his native village of T. Kagepura in the district of Mandya has about 900 registered voters, of which about 35 are bachelor in his thirties, whose search for brides remains unnecessary. Similarly, the nearby village of Talagavadi and Nelakamanhalli, which are slightly larger than their villages, have about 100 such bachelors, he said.
“There are no girls for youth born between 1985 and 1995. The few who were available for men in this age group are already married,” he said.
Politicians enter
Meanwhile, the lack of brides for young men in the old Mysore region was not just a social problem. Janata, who recognizes the “crisis of the bride”, announced extensive popularity among people in the region, announced an incentive of 2 lakh 2 lakh women who married the sons of farmers in the state in their manifesto released before the elections to 2023. sons of farmers.
Even Karnataka Rajya Raith Sangha (KRRS) took Cudgels on behalf of the bachelor after the elections by asking the main Minister Siddaramaiaha to announce an incentive of 5 ₹ from the reign of 2024.
The leader KRRS Badagalapura Nagendra pointed out that they were men from the agricultural community who are free, even though they are 45 years old. “Finding brides for young farmers has become a social problem for neglecting agriculture. In the absence of schemes for agriculture for prosperous activities leaves agriculture and migrate to urban areas,” he lamented. Nagendra was also looking for a 25 ₹ Lakh loan in a simple interest to help the couple become an economically strong practicing agriculture or allied activities.
What girls prefer
At a time when most of the throwers do not show the interest in finding the brides of the sons of farmers, Hl Yamuna, who, among other things, runs a marital service for bachelor’s farmers, said the girls who are also educated are very special about the financial security of their future partners. They prefer youth employed in government services or information technology sector and draw nice salaries in urban areas such as Bengaluru.
“The girls themselves perform du diligence not only by controlling social media profiles, but also about sharp questions,” she said, telling the incident in which the girl found that the real share of the boy in agricultural property was just a fraction after the division of family property.
Breaking barriers
Over the past few weeks, ShivaPrasad said that families from villages in Mandy and neighboring districts began to bring brides from North Karnataka for their groom. Several young people also began to interleave caste barriers and marry with girls outside their castes. “But most of these men are young.
“If we meet the bachelor’s bachelor, we wonder why partners cannot be found for us. Isn’t it against the laws of nature?” He asked and emphasized the key question of dispass in gender ratio.
Gender ratio
According to Karnataka (CRS), the child’s gender ratio at the birth of the Karnataka (CRS) ratio fell from 947 girls against 1,000 boys in 2021 to 929 girls against 1,000 boys in 2022. Gender disparity was quite alarming in some districts, such as 877 girls.
Not surprisingly, one of the easiest illegal women’s missiles in the state has recently been discovered in the district of Mandya, where the tests of sex determination were allegedly carried out. Among thirteen arrested people was a doctor and his laboratory technician who allegedly made 900 abortions in three years.
After the rocket was discovered, the government took several steps, such as notifications of cash rewards for people performing bait operations, preventing participants from entering or relatives with pregnant women into an ultrasonographic room, and recommending improvements in prison and punishment for breach of preliminary concepts and preliminary diagnostic techniques. So ShivaPrasad suspects that the uncontrollable female feticide over 90 could be the reason for the current crisis of the bride in the region.
