Mandya: Taking a short break after the week-long Mysuru Chalo Padayatra taken out jointly by the Opposition BJP and JD(S) from Bengaluru to Mysuru seeking the resignation of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah over MUDA scam, Union Minister for Steel and Heavy Industries H.D. Kumaraswamy (HDK) took part in paddy transplantation at an agricultural field of farmer Lakshman on Aralakuppe-Seethapura Road in Chinakurali hobli of Pandavapura taluk yesterday.
It may be mentioned here that Kumaraswamy, who was the Chief Minister then, had transplanted paddy in the same area on Aug. 11, 2018 and yesterday was incidentally, the sixth anniversary of it. By transplanting paddy saplings, Kumaraswamy has given a sort of push to local agricultural activities.
