#KarnatakaTrustsModi #KarnatakaElection

Dear #Karnataka
Don’t be Silly,
Like Dilli,
Vote for change,
Dump the deranged,
Dynast entitled,
Whose speeches, in Italian
Have to be subtitled.
He rushes to throne
With strange urgency,
He talks of Liberty,
But reminds of emergency.
He says he ready
And ready to be king,
What nation thinks
Is yet another thing. #Karnataka #KarnatakaElection
He wants to get power,
Through this way or that,
Our lives as citizens,
To him,
like flies to swat.

He had his turn,
And robbed and ran horror,
Now come back pink faced
Smiling silly on saffron terror. #Karnataka

Ramnagar, northern #Karnataka. Striking greenery!
Highway snack somewhere in north Karnataka's #Mango country. #farmfresh #KarnatakaElections2018
Even with so many diverging views about rival parties, both @BJP4Karnataka and @INCKarnataka supporters have an almost similar position on cm @siddaramaiah's state flag move. Most I spoke with in this region expressed discomfort on flag push. State pride, yes. But 🇮🇳 is flag!

Drove from #Bangalore to #Hospet, a distance of 350 km, on March 25th to see the #Hampi ruins. Instead of going back via Chitradurga, turned onto NH 150A from NH 48 at Hiriyur. The Hiriyur - Hospet stretch has much less traffic compared to Chitradurga-Hospet. #IndiaRoadTrip
Soon after crossing Hiriyur en route to #Hospet (near #Hampi), the landscape transformed itself dramatically. There were beautiful craggy hills and fields with the characteristic red soil of the region, with moderate to scanty vegetation. #IndiaRoadTrip
The #Hiriyur to #Hospet route goes close to #Bellary (now #Ballary), w/ its many mines of the best quality iron. Saw trucks transporting iron ore plying on this route. Incidentally, Bellary has often been in the news for rampant illegal mining & export of iron ore. #IndiaRoadTrip
