Speaking to reporters here on January 5, Thursday, Poojary rebuked Nalin for his ’fire’ statement during a protest at Konaje recently and demanded that the MP should  tender an apology to the people of the district by  making a door-to-door visit.

On Yettinahole Project, Poojary  once again lashed out at DK District in-charge Minister Ramanatha Rai and Water Resources Minister MB Patil  and questioned if the  water available in Yettinahole has been measured. "The CM as well as Water  resources minister  should quit over failure to implement Mahadayi project," said Poojary.

   Minister for Sugar and Co-operation Mahadeva Prasad who passed away recently  was an  efficient minister, Poojary said and requested that the minister’s  wife or son should be given an opportunity to contest from the constituency which has fallen vacant following his demise.

Poojary also said that Home Minister Parameshwar has erred through his statement on the Bengaluru molestation case that has caused national outrage.

"Such a statement from Parameshwar whom I wanted to see  as  the next CM is unwelcome," said Poojary.

Kallige Taranath Shetty, Karunaker Shetty and others were present.
