BENGALURU/HUBBALLI:
Water warrior’s heart beats for farmers, started his two-decade political career by taking part in protests. Shares excellent relations with JDS, Congress leaders, has worked with Deve Gowda and Siddaramaiah
The man anointed to fill former Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa’s rather outsized shoes, Karnataka’s new Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai is a man with friends across the political spectrum. Well read and well educated about the issues of Karnataka, he cannot be influenced in his decision making that’s how those close to Bommai sum him up.
Bommai studied engineering in BVB College in Hubballi, and worked with the Tata Group, besides setting up his own entrepreneurial venture. Despite being the son of a chief minister, he maintained a low profile and continued his pursuit of understanding the issues of farmers. Since his college days, Bommai actively took part in agitations.
