Woman injured in minor stampede at Airport

Puttamma, who came to submit a plea to Chief Minister Siddharamaiah at the Mysuru Airport this morning, sustained injuries as there was a large crowd who had gathered there to air their woes to the CM. Due to the mad rush, people pushed each other causing a minor stampede and Puttamma was injured on her toes. Later, an emotional Puttamma said that she had come all the way from her village to meet Siddharamaiah to urge the CM to appoint her son Basavanna as the chairman of any Board or Corporation. Basavanna is a local Congress leader.
