Bengaluru: The slogan of ‘Vishwaguru Basavanna as Cultural Leader’ will sound across the State, said Chief Minister Siddaramaiah here on Tuesday.
Addressing the gathering after releasing the portrait of Basavanna at the Banquet Hall of Vidhana Soudha here, the CM said: “The portrait of Basavanna will be unveiled at all the Government offices across the State on Feb. 17. The District Ministers have been instructed to do the honour of unveiling the portrait at the district level, while the Legislators will do at taluk levels and the Presidents of respective Urban and Rural Local Bodies at those offices. All the offices should have the portrait of Basavanna, so that we can at least inculcate some of the ideals propagated by Basavanna in our life.”
