    People, Krishna was one of the best Chief Minister of Karnataka.....He did his Law degree from Southern Methodist University of Texas, USA in 1959 and started his Political career as MLA of Maddur , Mandya in 1962( Same year Deve Gowda stated his political innings as MLA Holenarasipur, Hassan )....both were Vokkaliga leaders..... State mourning of former CM is fine....but declaring holidays for Schools and Government office for anybody's death is unacceptable....I am sure Krishna would never liked this ....Tak...Takk...

    Why Congress Government honouring a bjp guy??? Scared of ED, IT, CBI and Lokayukhta??? This Congress Government and chamchas are good for Jayantis and mournings. SMK's own party people are not even bother to utter a word of condolence and Congress people are wasting the state fund to make event a Great showbiz, who has tried his best to finish off the Congress

    Late SMK was the CM of Karnataka and FM of India when he was in Congress. Secondly the President and PM too have sent their customary condolences, cutting across party lines. It's inappropriate to take sides on such incidents.

    As it is people in our country are living on hand to mouth existence. Upon that there is no employment for the deserving candidates. This fellow died, let him go. Why declare a holiday and add to the unending woes of the downtrodden below poverty level citizens.

    this is one more time waste custom of our country which should be done away with...unnecessary waster of time, money and resources...just hold some condolence meeting and only some top govt officials can attend funeral ceremony...these rajakaranis loot state exchequer during their life time and even after death...many are living without food and shelter...
