Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi (JD/SP)

Udupi, Jul 6: The road between Syndicate Circle Manipal and the office of the deputy commissioner has been named as Dr V S Acharya Road. It was inaugurated by state industries minister Jagadish Shettar, on Tuesday, July 6.

On the occasion of Dr Acharya's birth anniversary, the minister also garlanded the statue of Dr Acharya installed near the deputy commissioner's office.

Speaking on the occasion, Shettar termed Dr Acharya as a person with a great personality and said he feels lucky to be participating in this programme. He hailed Acharya for rising to the top from the grassroots in the party and for building the party. He said that L K Advani keeps remembering Dr Acharya, adding that with his wise decisions Acharya had taken the ministry to the highest level and used to easily solve complicated problems which were referred to the cabinet.

Udupi MLA, Raghupathi Bhat, recalled that Dr Acharya was a great personality, at the demise of whom even the Congress, in spite of being the opposition party, had organized a meeting to pay tribute to him. "A decision to name this road after Dr Acharya had been taken long back. Recently, a resolution was passed in the municipal council, and government approval was obtained. Dr Acharya always took a stand in support of development, and he had worked hard on the issue of constructing deputy commissioner's office here," he stated.

Coastal Development Authority chairman, Mattaru Ratnakar Hegde, chairman of Udupi Urban Development Authority, Raghavendra Kini, Udupi municipal president, Sumitra R Nayak, vice president, Laxmi Manjunath Kola, the standing committee chairman, Girish Anchan, national general secretary of BJP Backward Classes Morcha, Yashpal Suvarna, BJP district president, Kuilady Suresh Nayak, children of Dr Acharya, Kiran Acharya and Raviraj Acharya, and others were present.

    Two crore gas connections given free of cost only during bjp rule.....Today gas refill cylinder supplied within 24 hrs of booking unless minimum 15 days during kai rule.... Petrol price during 2013 was around 84 rupees which was so cheaper at that time.... Salary ,pension and perks doubled since then....MPs ,Legislators salary their entitlements doubled since then without any protest...Voters only remained scape goats...All parties remained unanimous.!!!

    Dr. V.S Acharya was a gentleman. He must have suffocated a lot when BJP came to power. He must have hated the working of politicians for sure.
