Yes, the guy was dogged by horrible fortunes, like the drought giving rise to Cauvery issue, Veerappan etc., but he did bring in the PPP element and introduced the BATF, which involved the top company honchos in public works. However, he could not move on the BIAL because of BJP at the Centre. The state had terrible power and water problems during his time. Roads were in pathetic state, with Bannerghatta road and Hosur road turning into nightmares during his time.. I don't think he is such a great administrator. Congress is grasping at straws like the proverbial drowning man. I feel its time for BJP to get the power, but am not very convinced about the capabilities of Mr Yeddy...well only time will tell... in the end lets hope and pray whoever comes is able to do good for this state, which is well endowed by nature but cursed by the Gods for its inept leadership..
