Mysore/Mysuru: “A person with humanity, patience and helping nature towards others will become successful in life,” said MLA G.T. Devegowda. He was addressing the gathering at Dr. Shivarathri Rajendra Shree Award Ceremony held at Sri Rajendra Auditorium in JSS Hospital premises as part of Basava Jayanti-2021 celebrations organised by Mysuru Sharana Mandali on Saturday.
“Many tried to block my way when I was struggling in life, yet I helped those people after becoming politician. I don’t keep grudge against anyone, people who become rich overnight will suffer later in their lives. So a person should develop the character of helping others in difficult times. From the time I was a Gram Panchayat (GP) President to till date, I have never did partiality with the development of villages which did not vote for me.
