    Billawas should be like this Kotian.He is a very decent supporting actor .Have seen him in past kannada movies.Mine and my 50+ friends vote are already there with you sir.Since childhood I ve been surrounded by salians and kotians especially Sri Narayana guru school ,mulki had lots.Missing them trying to find on FB.

    Anyways under Sidhu govt ,all party members are treated equally and because of this state govt D.K and Udupi are given much priorities.Not like past govt only concentrated on Bellary,hubli and bengaluru.Sidhu is trying to take care of all sides.North karnataka, Hyderabad Karnataka, Belguam all the borders of Karnataka are being made safe from land grabbing from other states.

    We have to unite ,if we want to be like Japan.But God knows when will the centre understand this

    What r u talking? Sidhu is working for the state. How come he gets time for that. Because most of the time he is sleeping even during functions also. Mr Gowda lowered the image of Karnataka when he was sleeping in the office when he became PM. It different thing that now he is sleepless because now his party won't get any decent no. Of seats in the election.

    Ideal candidate for Congi. type of politics. My prediction is in case if he does not get a Congi ticket to fight election he will start negotian with any party and ultimately he will join the Appa Makkalu party - JDS. Billava community is not a backward community anymore to surrender before any single party or leader. Billawas r progressive thinking, and rises above caste politics for the sake of good governance. People pl mark my words - congi does not give tickets, they sell tickets. So ppl now joining the party r those willing to buy tickets. Jai Ho.

    Good and smart decision. I am sure Rajshekar is brave person to decide what is right and what is wrong? So he made a right decision in joining right party. Congress in Karnataka under Siddu's leadership is really amazing. Siddu is man of word unlike our PM. I do not think Congress need to campaign for their 2018 election because their good work already speaks in the state.

    Rajshekar Kotian ......
    Better not to join any political party since you are leading few of Billawa associations.
    By joining to political party, you should not loose the Image what you you have at present.

    Congress is an ideological movement...
    Time to time there may be aberrations..
    Life is not without aberrations...
    But everything rejuvenates...
    This is new congress with fresh and honest faces...
    Dongis can rule for a while but can never sustain...
    Let us see 2019...

    I hope people of Karnataka who are known to religious tolerance peace loving and co existence since decades will teach the lesson to the people who spread hatred and divide the society. Like minded people should come forward to stop the people who have their personal agenda rather than development. The Chief Ministry of Karnataka will definitely take the lead.

    Karnataka has always been Unique!
    When INC was loosing everywhere, Karnataka was safe bet for INC.
    When INC was ruling at centre, in Karnataka BJP Govt. was ruling.
    When BJP is ruling at Centre, in Karnataka, INC Govt. is ruling!
    It wasn't planned that way, but it's been happening so! Really strange isn't it?

    Chosen wrong party..Billava community people will never vote for CONG at least in coming election. days are gone when billava people used to vote CONG just because of its caste politics ..that was the reason Namma Jananna went to record book. Wait and watch election coming soon.
