The shocking incident in Hubli has intensified concerns over child safety and sparked widespread public outrage.
In a heartbreaking event that has shaken Hubli, Karnataka, a five-year-old girl was allegedly kidnapped and killed, sparking outrage in the community. The suspect, a 35-year-old migrant worker from Patna, Bihar, was later killed in a police encounter on Sunday, April 13, 2025, according to authorities.
The incident began when the young girl’s body was discovered in an abandoned shed, prompting a swift response from the Karnataka Police. Using CCTV footage, officers identified the suspect, Ritesh Kumar, who was accused of abducting and murdering the child. Authorities suspect the girl may have been sexually assaulted before her death, though they are awaiting postmortem results to confirm.
As the investigation unfolded, police tracked Kumar to an abandoned house near the Tarihal underpass. According to Hubli-Dharwad Police Commissioner N. Shashi Kumar, the suspect attempted to escape custody, attacking officers by throwing stones and damaging vehicles. In response, Sub-Inspector Annapurna fired warning shots before shooting Kumar in the leg and chest. He was rushed to Karnataka Medical College and Research Institute – Hubli but was declared dead on arrival.
The tragedy has left the victim’s family, originally from Koppal district, in deep grief. The girl’s mother works as a domestic helper and beauty parlor assistant, while her father is a painter. The community rallied outside Ashok Nagar police station, demanding justice and expressing frustration. Some locals called for harsh punishment, while others raised concerns about migrant workers, though the Police Commissioner urged against generalizations.
This devastating case has highlighted issues of child safety and crime in Karnataka, with authorities emphasizing their commitment to justice. The investigation continues as police await further reports to provide clarity on the circumstances of the girl’s death.

Imagine a once-dry lake in Karnataka’s Bidar city, now buzzing with life, supporting local fishermen, and pulling in visitors from nearby cities. That’s the story of Janawada Lake—a stunning transformation that’s breathing new energy into the community and turning heads as a must-visit picnic spot.
How Janawada Lake Rejuvenation Turned Into a Sustainable Source of Income for Local Fishermen
Thanks to the Mission Amrit Sarovar program under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), this lake got a second chance. Back in 2022, the rejuvenation project kicked off, aiming to revive 91 lakes across Bidar district. Janawada was one of them, and boy, has it paid off! After two solid monsoon seasons, the lake is brimming again, proving that a little care can go a long way.
For the local fishing families, it’s been a game-changer. Two societies, made up of 65 hardworking members, are now thriving here, raising four popular fish species—goldfish, catla, mrigal, and rohu. In just two years, they’ve harvested around 10 quintals of fish, sending their catch to big markets like Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Pune. It’s not just about the fish; it’s about steady income and hope for folks who’ve long depended on this land.
But it’s not all work and no play. Janawada Lake’s peaceful vibes and lush surroundings have caught the eye of tourists too. “It’s the natural beauty and easy access that make it a perfect getaway,” says Girish Badole, the Chief Executive Officer of Bidar Zilla Panchayat. Whether you’re from a neighboring village or just passing through, the lake’s charm is hard to resist.
Janamma, the Deputy Director of the Fisheries Department in Bidar, calls it an ambitious success. “We took on this project to bring ponds and lakes back to life, and Janawada is proof it’s working,” she says. The Sagar Society, which leases the lake for fish farming, has turned it into a sustainable hub—balancing livelihoods with nature.
So, next time you’re looking for a serene escape or a peek into a community reborn, Janawada Lake in Bidar might just be your spot. It’s more than a lake—it’s a story of revival, resilience, and a little slice of paradise in Karnataka.
