If Maartalli in Chamarajanagar District bordering Tamil Nadu rings a bell in the ears thanks to forest brigand Veerappan menace and the infamous Kichguth Maramma Temple mass food poisoning tragedy, a group of ex-servicemen is striving hard to erase the blemish or call it a black mark acquired by the village knowingly or unknowingly.
The group of soldiers want to regain Maartalli’s distinction by producing a large number of soldiers and contributing substantially to the Armed Forces.
