    Mr Praveen,20,000 plus Baharain Kannadigas irrespective of caste,creed,religion, united together and welcomed Chief minister of Karnataka, not just a person named Mr.Yedeurappa. Dont you think, KANNADA and Kannada sangha is a force uniting/binding all of us together ?

    Yes I do agree, there are issues to be sorted out back home.But What about NRI'S ISSUES? Personally I feel, such functions, get-together can be a platform, if really we make it to highlight NRI'S issue to our Government, instead of foul cry at later date.

    With a peep into the life in the gulf with multicultural and multi religious and multi ethnic PEACEFUL CO-EXISTANCE is what Yeddy & Co. should learn. Karnataka state one of the most peaceful and people living all over the world from the state has chaged and for a shocking awakening to see that the peace exixted for generations has vanished... Peaceful co-existance with all religions, cultures and languages and ethnic communities is the need of the hour.

    Chief Minister try and learn what needs to be done by the government so that people live in peace. It is a Government for and of all in the state and not of a majority or a minority. Peace and communal harmony can not be replaced with development.

    Dear Yeddi people have voted you so that you serve the people much better than other parties. Now it looks like you are involved in merry making in this time of global recession. You are squandering the state treasury by making these unnecessary travels which do not benifit either your party or the people of the state. People of the state have no power, no proper roads, farmers do not have fertilizers, communal tension, poverty, etc. what plans you have to solve this. why cant you devote your time to solve these problems.
