Chief Minister Siddaramaiah went down memory lane and recalled his early years of politics during the launch of the autobiography by writer and film-maker T.N. Seetharam on Sunday.
Releasing Mr. Seetharam’s autobiography “Nenapina Putagalu” at Bengaluru, he said, “Mr. Seetharam is a close friend with almost 40 years of association. I used to visit Lankesh Patrike office. While I was a law student, farmers’ leader Prof. M.D. Nanjundaswamy was a law college professor. He used to hold discussions with the students who were interested in politics.” These discussions had inspired him into politics and he became a member of Samajwadi Yuva Janasabha, he said. “Prof. Nanjundaswamy is the reason behind my political career,” the Chief Minister said.
