Mangalore, July 7: With Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda set to lose the chair to Lingayat leader Jagadish Shettar, the “conscientious citizens” former's home-district have launched a campaign to save their fovourite CM.

Expressing frustration over the escalated campaign to overthrow Mr Gowda and to destabilize his government, Jaago Mangalore Association has called upon the people of the state, especially his home district Dakshina Kannada, to openly come out in support of him for the good of the state.

“Being conscientious citizens of the country, we strongly condemn this male fide and anti-democratic movement against the incumbent government of Mr Gowda, who has an unblemished track record”, stated JMA in a release.

“Our beloved chief minister is among the best chief ministers Karnataka has ever seen. His smiling face and childlike sincerity have brought stability to the state and restored confidence to the people after he was appointed 11 months ago”, it said.

“Before DVS assumed office, the state was in a big mess and there were lot of corruption charges against the earlier CM B S Yediyurappa and his ministers. The political situation was very volatile and the then government was too busy fighting for its daily survival. People had completely lost faith in Mr Yediyurappa's governance. In stark contrast to that, after Mr Gowda took charge, the government has been functioning very smoothly. This has happened because Mr Gowda is not only an able administrator, but also he is clean, transparent, honest and dedicated to his duties of office”, the JMA said.

The JMA stated that Mr Gowda is becoming a victim of political conspiracy basically because he is not allowing the present leaders and politicians to loot the economy. If the people of Karnataka do not support him today we will lose him and we will lose our future as well, it said.

The association also requested the people to send their message of support to Governor Dr.Hans Raj Bhardwaj saying they wanted Mr Gowda to continue as the chief minister of Karnataka' to his e-mail [email protected] or to the chief minister's office: [email protected]

When asked about PIL filed in the Karnataka High Court against him, Singh told media: "Some lawyer has filed a PIL against me in the High Court. I cannot stop anyone from filing the PIL."

When asked about Congress leader Siddaramaiah's comments criticising him for being given the forest portfolio, Singh said: "I cannot comment on what he said against me as he is a former chief minister and very senior leader."
