Politicians always want to fish in troubled waters. If the water is not troubled, they do that first. The talks of international airport started some time in 1994-95/1996. It was not moving any where. It goes to the credit of Mr.Murthy to have brought this to this stage. I think Mr.Devegowda has confused himself and thinks that Mr.Narayan Murthy is a politician and perhaps made these comments?
In any case, Pat or no Pat from Mr.Deve Gowda is not relevent, people of Karnataka know the value of contribution of Mr.Murthy.
Now that he is relieved from this thankless job, Mr.Murthy can spend more time on making the dreams of people of karnataka by giving more employment to kannada people.
