Team Mangalorean - City Beat

Mangalore: Speaking to mediapersons in the city on Saturday, July 7, Shri Vishwesha Tirtha Swamiji of Pejawar Math said that he was not going to react to the move to change D V Sadananda Gowda as chief minister, stating that it was an internal matter of the Bharatiya Janata Party.

Gowda is known to seek guidance from the Swamiji regularly in various matters, most frequently in recent times on the environmental pollution caused by the Lanco power generation plant of UPCL.

Asked about the SEZ-acquired land not being given back to the owners even after it was denotified, he said he would discuss the matter with the chairman of the Organic Agricultural Mission about it.

Regarding the global recognition for the western ghats, he said he would give his reaction after studying the matter.
