Severe rainfall in the Malnad region has led to significant disruptions, resulting in the tragic deaths of two individuals. A 100-year-old woman died when a wall collapsed at a house in Adagadi, near Kumsi, while she was visiting relatives. Three others were injured in this incident. In a separate occurrence, a man lost his life after being struck by a falling tree branch while riding his motorcycle.

The heavy rains have caused widespread impacts, including increased inflow into local reservoirs and landslips that have obstructed roads. Shivamogga recorded an average rainfall far exceeding normal levels for the period, prompting authorities to open all crest gates at the Tunga reservoir to manage excess water. The Chikkamagaluru district administration has restricted heavy vehicle movement on certain roads due to repeated landslips and concerns over dilapidated infrastructure.

Local emergency services are actively working to clear fallen trees and restore traffic flow as many areas remain affected by uprooted trees and damaged electricity poles. Residents are advised to stay informed through trusted local authorities for updates regarding safety and road conditions during this adverse weather situation.

Original article

The provided text is a news report about severe rainfall in the Malnad region, which has led to disruptions, injuries, and fatalities. Upon close examination, it becomes apparent that the text is replete with various forms of bias and language manipulation.

One of the most striking aspects of the text is its cultural and nationalist bias. The report focuses on the impact of the heavy rainfall on local infrastructure and residents, using phrases such as "Malnad region" and "Shivamogga recorded an average rainfall far exceeding normal levels." This framing implies a sense of regional identity and pride, which may be seen as reinforcing nationalist sentiments. Furthermore, the use of local place names like "Adagadi" and "Kumsi" creates a sense of familiarity and connection to the region, potentially evoking feelings of loyalty or patriotism in readers.

The text also exhibits linguistic and semantic bias through its emotionally charged language. Phrases such as "severe rainfall," "tragic deaths," and "widespread impacts" create a sense of urgency and gravity, drawing attention to the severity of the situation. This type of language can be seen as manipulative, as it aims to elicit an emotional response from readers rather than providing a neutral or objective account. Additionally, words like "disruptions," "injuries," and "fatalities" have negative connotations that reinforce a narrative of disaster or catastrophe.

A closer look at the structure and narrative bias reveals that the report follows a typical disaster narrative framework. The story begins with an attention-grabbing anecdote about two individuals who lost their lives due to separate incidents (a wall collapse at a house in Adagadi near Kumsi). This sets up a tone for tragedy and loss before shifting focus to more general information about road closures due to landslips. This ordering creates an implicit hierarchy between human life (the anecdote) versus infrastructure damage (the landslips), subtly prioritizing human suffering over material losses.

Furthermore, when discussing road closures due to landslips in Chikkamagaluru district administration's restriction on heavy vehicle movement on certain roads due to repeated landslips concerns over dilapidated infrastructure), there is no mention or analysis regarding systemic issues that may contribute towards these problems such as lack investment into maintenance infrastructure by government bodies etc., thus creating structural bias by avoiding discussion around accountability within institutions involved.

Regarding temporal bias presentism emerges when reporting current events without considering historical context; this piece does not provide any historical background information regarding how similar weather events have affected this area in past years; nor does it discuss long-term effects such weather patterns might have on local ecosystems which could inform decision-making processes today.

In terms economic class-based bias there are no explicit references made towards specific groups however framing around 'excess water' prompts authorities opening all crest gates at Tunga reservoir could be interpreted through lens resource extraction where wealthier communities benefit disproportionately from natural resources while those living nearby bear disproportionate environmental costs without compensation

When examining sources cited none are explicitly mentioned within article therefore credibility cannot be evaluated however given content presented appears aligned with mainstream media narratives surrounding natural disasters
