Mysuru: Retired IAS officer S.N. Nagaraj (62), died after the tractor he was driving overturned at his farm at Doddabyadarahalli in Pandavapura taluk of Mandya district yesterday.
The retired officer met the tragic end at around 12.30 pm after his bid to remove a tractor that had tilted in his farm. He was driving a tractor with tiller equipment attached at the back to plough the land when the vehicle tilted to its right. While other villagers advised him to bring in another tractor to pull out the tractor, Nagaraj dissuaded them and went on to do the job himself.
