Hamsalekha releases book penned by H.C. Mahadevappa

Renowned music director Hamsalekha on Saturday, July 22, released a Kannada book titled ‘Samvidhanada Neralalli’ (Under the shade of Constitution) authored by Minister for Social Welfare H.C. Mahadevappa.

At the function organised at Kalamandira in Mysuru to release the book, Mr. Hamsalekha referred to the title of the book and said the Indian Constitution was a large tree providing shade to all. But, instead of closing their eyes and going to sleep under the shade provided by the Constitution, people of the country should dream big and make efforts to realise their dreams.

Mr. Hamsalekha disclosed that controversy generated over certain remarks he had made on “food” habits too finds mention in book with the author pointing out that it was the Constitution that defended the music director’s observations. Even if the Constitution had protected him, Mr. Hamsalekha said it was the Bhim Parivar stretching from Chamarajanagar to Bidar that stood solidly behind him.
