Mysuru: As Mandya is called the ‘Sugar Bowl’ of Karnataka, K.R. Nagar or Krishnarajanagar is the ‘Paddy Bowl’ of Karnataka. Little after June every year, one can find a vast expanse of lush green paddy fields after the sowing season. A majority of people in K.R. Nagar depend on agriculture for livelihood and the rest of the population depends on business.
Luckily for the farming community, the Assembly elections have come a month before the sowing season starts. Otherwise, they would have been politicking instead of getting into the paddy fields.
