Daijiworld Media Network - Hassan (SP)

Hassan, Aug 21: Surprisingly, PWD minister of the state, elder brother of the state chief minister, and in-charge minister for this district, H D Revanna, gave ample evidence of his arrogance when he threw biscuit packets towards flood-affected people at the relief camp which he visited to provide them succour.

The incident happened at Ramanathpura in the district on Sunday August 20. Hundreds of affected people are sheltered in relief camps at various places including Ramanathpura. The minister's inhuman behaviour came in for strong criticism.

Revanna, who has been concentrating on flood relief work at his home district and Kodagu, had also announced that Hassan mega milk dairy, of which he is the president, would provide 50,000 litres of milk to the flood-affected families. He has kept his word and supplied milk and dairy products to the affected people.

During the visit to Ramanathpura relief camp on Sunday, Revanna was accompanied by MLA, A T Ramaswamy. Except a couple of people, he tossed biscuit packets to everyone in an arrogant manner before going back.

MP, Shobha Karandlaje, said that Revanna has shown to the world that he lacks seriousness, concern and humane attitude by throwing biscuit and milk powder packets towards the poor, flood-affected people sheltered in the relief camp.
