Mysore/Mysuru: Former Mayor Purushotham, a prominent advocate of ‘Mahisha Dasara,’ has issued a statement clarifying that the controversial remarks made by writer and rationalist Prof. K.S. Bhagawan at the ‘Mahisha Utsava’ and ‘Dhamma Deeksha Day’ event held at the Town Hall premises were solely his personal opinions.
During a press conference at Pathrakarthara Bhavan this morning, Purushotham expressed his disapproval of Prof. Bhagawan’s comments targeting Vokkaligas. He mentioned that it was unfortunate that the remarks were made, especially when they had advised Prof. Bhagawan not to deviate from the topic of ‘Mahisha Utsava.’
