Timely action by a farmer and a police officer saved Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai from a minor mishap at Kodaganur village in Vijayapura district on Tuesday.
Mr. Bommai patted a bull and applied tilak to its forehead. Then he moved to do the same to another bull. But the first animal got agitated and tried to escape.
The farmer who had brought the pair to the venue pulled its nose string to hold the bull steady. The CM stretched his hand to touch the bull again. This time, the bull charged at Mr. Bommai.
