Speaking to reporters here, D’Souza said  the ordinary citizens are faced with a myriad of problems including unemployment and poverty. To top it all there is a hike in interest rates on home loans. The state has still not got its share in GST and no measure has been taken to solve problems of areca growers. In this backdrop rather than a road show let the  Union Minister give attention to solving people’s problems, Ivan said ahead of the Union Home Minister’s scheduled visit to Puttur.

Exuding  optimism that the Congress would come to power in the upcoming  elections, he said the BJP which has realised this is holding programmes at government expense by inviting  Prime Minister Narendra Modi again.

Former mayor Shashidhar Hegde, Opposition leader in MCC Naveen D’Souza, former corporator Appi  and others were present.
