Why did Deve Gowda fume against Kumaraswamy?
CM recalls old memories
Bengaluru, June 4: “During my college days, I was fond of movies. I used to go to Dr Raj Kumar movies. But my father HD Deve Gowda used to scold me saying that you will not become a good person”, recalls Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy.
Addressing the students after receiving felicitation at the National College auditorium at Jayanagar here on Monday, Kumaraswamy recalled his old memories. “During 1979-80, I was the student of this college. Dr H Narasimhaiah who hailed from a rural family and earned a name and fame had become an inspiration for many. His efforts in building an education institution are commendable”, he said.
“I was sitting in the last bench because of the fear of asking questions by the teachers. I used to become gullible when teachers ask questions. I was a dull student during college days. Even then, I got the seat in this college. I could not forget those days”, he recalled.
“If I had studied well, I would have become an IAS officer. But now, I have become a Chief Minister. I read till 2 am to know the subjects. This would help me do good works for the society”, he said.
Students have talents, but it would not come to the fore. But when they study with clear aim, they would get the results. They should respect the parents, teachers and elders to become good citizens, he advised students.

UP: Misled by GPS navigation, car falls into river from partially constructed bridge, 3 dead
Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.
The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.
"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.
The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.
There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.
Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.
The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
