The Chief Minister said that Nehru Olekar, a native of Shidenur, has proved that he hasn’t forgotten his native village.
“Born in an ordinary farmer family, he is actively involved in organizations and later got elected as MLA to serve the people. By doing this religious work, the MLA has made honest efforts to pay back his native village,” CM Basavaraj added.
Chief Minister Basavaraj further informed that in his vachanas, Basavanna has said the body must be pure always and it must be followed. “The purpose of building the temples was to ensure purity en masse. The mind will be calm by visiting temples”, CM Bommai said.
“The rituals connected with temples must be celebrated by all the people irrespective of caste, colour, or religion. The entrance of the temple will be big to symbolize that everyone is welcome but the sanctum sanctorum will be small. The reason is that they must shed egos and bow their head before god. The MLA, Olekar has done a good job and lord Mukteshwara will do good for him,” CM Bommai said.
