Davangere: The saga of farmers suicide seem to be neverending, another 27-year-old farmer, who attempted suicide by drinking poison at Kadaranayakanahalli in Harihar taluk on Saturday night, died at a private hospital here on Sunday.  

The deceased has been identified as Maheshwaraiah. He owned four acres of land and had taken loans amounting to Rs 4 lakh from a bank and local money-lenders.  His maize crop started withering owing to scanty rainfall.

Dejected over this, Maheshwaraiah attempted suicide on Saturday night, according to his family members. Malebennur police have registered a case.
