Karnataka is the second-largest milk-producing state in India, after Gujarat. During the COVID-19 pandemic, state-run dairy behemoth Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) collection centres at many villages stopped functioning due to a huge drop in demand. Local milk producers who survived on selling milk to the KMF resorted to 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]
