Mysore/Mysuru: In his letter, former MLC D. Madegowda says, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is a lucky politician. Here is the excerpts of the letter:
“In the history of Karnataka politics, there has been no other politician as fortunate as you. Back in 1982, when you were a Taluk Panchayat member, you might not have even dreamed of becoming an MLA in 1983. That was the state of your financial situation at the time. Perhaps if the then Chamundeshwari MLA Jayadevaraj Urs had not displayed arrogance at the wedding of MLC Chinnaswamy’s daughter in December 1982, influential political leaders like former MLA Kempeeregowda and senior lawyer Mavinahalli Siddegowda might not have rallied to support you as an independent candidate. If that had been the case, Siddaramaiah’s name might not have been recorded in the history of Karnataka politics.”
