Udupi, Oct 1: "The suicide of rising athlete Prathvi Poojary is not just an injustice to the Billawa community, but to the whole society. Therefore, this case should be probed by a team at the district superintendent of police (SP) level,” said MLC Kota Shreenivas Poojary.
He was speaking at the condolence and protest meet held at Rotary Sabhabhavana, Brahmavar, on Saturday October 1.
"Sportspersons who are mentally strong will not commit suicide. Hence, behind Prathvi’s suicide there exists a genuine reason. If the people behind her suicide are not traced, protests will be triggered,” said former MLA Sunil Kumar.
Billava leaders Gopal Poojary, Vasanth Salian, Kiran Kumar, B N Shankar, Sathish Poojary, K Raju Poojary, Sathish Poojary Barkur, Mallika B Poojary, Mani Gopal Byndore, Prathvi’s father Shekar Poojary, and Dhananjay Amin took part in this protest meet.
