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.

Sure! He did know how to remain in the news all the time... but other than the pomp and show, what else was there to show as a concrete result?
He's a pukka son of Gowda senior, a drama actor par excellence!!

Kumaraswamy is One of the worst,UN CULTURED, UNEDUCATED Chief Minister we have ever seen... Whoever will become the CM they will do the things automatically what u described about him, he dont have his own vision and knowledge, the IAS officers who were around him were good, he followed them thats all. People of this country lost their sense and they are electing wrong people to rule this country... let them suffer. If the people of Karnataka were having little bit sense they should throw away JD(S) and Congress... Its time to give power to BJP. Kumaraswamy is a useless fellow, not at all having the basic qualities of a polititian, he is nothing before BJP's Yediyurappa. This Govt did good job because of BJP. Kumaraswamy failed to make properties,assets and crores of money as his father did because BJP was there, thats the reason he was upset.

Power to BJP? They are a stupid and opportunistic party. They were stupid to help pull down the Congress led govt hoping that Kumaraswamy would give them power 20 months later. Now they are a laughing stock.
Next election, I go to the booth and invalidate my vote. If this is done en-masse, it should create enough of a constitutional crisis to make the law-makers sit up and take notice.
