With less than a year for elections, many events are turning into political gatherings and one such instance was the inauguration of a two-day health check-up camp in Chickballapur, the constituency represented by Health and Medical Education Minister K. Sudhakar, on Saturday.
Organised by Dr. K. Sudhakar Foundation, the programme had BJP national general secretary B.L. Santhosh and Adichunchungiri Mutt seer Nirmalanandanatha Swamy for the inauguration. It had Dr. Sudhakar heaping praises on Mr. Santhosh saying that he and the seer were “two sides of the same coin”.
“One is in saffron robes and the other is in white clothes. Both are engineers and have rendered relentless service for the welfare of the country,” the Minister said, adding that it was very rare for Mr. Santhosh to attend any event. Three top officials from the State Health Department were part of the programme.
