SMK is a classy man no doubt about it..🙏

[@hindurashtra63]

One of the last Honest and Dignified Congress Person..

[@ananthapadmanabhan8795]

BJP never had any honest or dignified member or leader.. f!ck you..
He was an extremely corrupt leader, he is the only reason why Bangalore is struggling with air quality, water quality, lack of proper town planning, rampant corruption and high crime rate..
Development doesn't just mean making large buildings, it goes beyond that.. sadly the cow dung brigade doesn't understand it..
