Mangalore, July 01, 2014: A Mangalore City Corporation worker has reportedly committed suicide at his house at Bajal on June 30, Monday night. It has been learnt that frustration in life due to non-payment of salary for the three months had driven him to the extreme step.
The deceased is Yashwanth (40) who worked in the Water Supply Department of MCC and was in-charge of water supply to Kudroli and Jeppinamogaru. He was serving the MCC since 15 years.
Sources said his repeated plea to the authorities concerned to clear his salary arrears had fallen on deaf ears.
Yashwanth is survived by his wife and a seven year old child. Mangalore Rural Police have registered a case.
