One of the best CM our state has seen. He was very active, efficient and was highly liked by people. Havent seen anybody who was so-much-in-touch with people of our state. He was a regular newsmaker with inumerous pro-people policies. He was an all-rounder, many issues, like IT, trivial to govt/state/people were addressed but kept on back-burner. Otherwise, IT glared development of Karnataka and got undue attention, inspite of their self-sufficiency. Most Govts made futile attempts to measure their efficiencies by measuring what they did for the IT.
I feel Senior Gowda was like this too, pro-people. Appreciate if anybody points to any specific charges against him, not something personal against him in nature or cases where they had joined hands with vested interests for financial favours/rewards.
