In a bizarre, yet not-so-surprising incident, a group of almost 200 bachelors from different parts of Karnataka will be embarking on a 3-day bachelor's march 'Brahmacharigala Padayatre' in hopes of finding suitable brides.
The march is being conducted till the Male Mahadeshwara Hills temple in Chamarajanagar district in Karnataka to seek the blessings of god.
Reportedly owing to the rising cases of female foeticide resulting in a skewed sex-ratio, the villages are witnessing an acute shortage of eligible women.
