The great voice of the Kannada Heartland --Pt. Bhimsen Joshi has given us this message of unity. CV Raman spent his last few decades in Bengaluru. Should we erase his name from the city? The great Visweswarayya was a Telugu? Should we break the dams that he built? Bengaluru and for that matter, any Metro is cosmopolitan and if parochial, hate campaigns start, there will be no end to them... Every Metro will become a Srinagar. Curfew round the clock and military all around... Do we want it? C'Mon my fellow Kannadigas, we are human beings first, before we became Kannadigas, Tamils, Maraathis, Punjabis or Bengalees. And water, is every human being's life and one can say 'right'.
