Karnataka is the second largest milk producer after Gujarat in India. The state-run dairy behemoth Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) collection centres at many villages have stopped functioning due to a huge drop in demand.

The producers who survive on selling milk to the KMF are dumping thousands of litres into tanks, lakes and even rivers.[2]


The current air quality in Bad is listed as poor. "The air has reached a high level of pollution and is unhealthy for sensitive groups. Reduce time spent outside if you are feeling symptoms such as difficulty breathing or throat irritation."[3]
