A hectic day for Chief Minister

Staff Correspondent

BANGALORE: Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy looked undaunted at the end of his nearly 12-hour "Janata darshan" on Saturday.

Mr. Kumaraswamy went about meeting people without taking any break for lunch and tea. There were only brief breaks of about a minute to drink the orange juice prepared by his cook Jattogi Rao. With a few stretches to ward off physical discomfort, he continued to hear the people's problems. He postponed the interaction with journalists in different parts of the State through video conferencing to Sunday. The files that needed his clearance were brought to the venue. Mr. Kumaraswamy comforted the people while hearing their problems.

Some among those who attended the programme came to express their happiness over the realisation of their demands. A person from Tumkur had come to express his gratitude for getting a house.
