Dear Mr.Gowda,
My mail is to appreciate your many efforts to provide a better quality of life to citizens staying in your constituency. I should admit that you are by far the most visible leader who is walking by his talk; I have seen your efforts to resolve concerns faced by us when you visited our locality during ‘Ground breaking ceremony’ to lay road and drainage system near my house in Virupakshapura. The general feeling among us is that you are very approachable as a person. I was there yesterday at function in which you distributed senior citizen ID cards; I was there to collect the card for my mother. I have never seen or heard anyone who has seen an MLA personally monitoring development works in his area.
It is also overwhelming to see that you have so many volunteers who are really ‘volunteered’ to help you, I am sure that your efforts will be suitably rewarded by loyal citizens like us by giving you an electoral mandate to do better things, reach more people by help you reach much responsible and higher offices.
I wish you all the best of luck in all your future endeavors.
Best Regards
Suchindra K Srinivas

Dear Mr. Gowda,
Yesterday I saw your pamphlet by accident about your terrific idea of having a Pension Camp for senior citizens. Hence this note to say how much I appreciate your outreach to assist the needy.
Your listing of application requirements is clear and concise. It is my view that most people will understand the requirements.
Trust many people took advantage of your voluntary service that generally ought to be the function of a legitimately constituted elected government in a liberal democratic society. That you as a member of provincial parliament had to undertake this essential service shows how much governance needs to improve. That you did it, of course, speaks well for you. Bravo!
Wish you every success in your future ventures to give a hand up to the needy.
Sincerely yours,
Narasim

Dear Sir,
First of all I take this opportunity to thank you for extending your hand in improvement of long awaited Sapthagiri layout Roads & open Drainages. Really all of us are very happy.
Sir further to the above I have another request on behalf of all the layout residents to extend your efforts to make this locality a beautifull one. This can be made possible only if the encroached government lands are cleared using your good offices. Some of the roads are encroached by some strong hold people in the locality. The Raja Kaluve has been encroached by a school. All these are making the locality residents to cover a longer distance to reach the main road. Besides this please plan for planting seedlings all over the lay outs to increase the beauty. Hence we request your goodself to please look in to the problem & take appropriate steps.
Finally all of us wish that you not only lead your consituency but in future you should lead the state. Pray that let such a day come faster in your life.
Thanking you once again for all the efforts that you have taken
With Great Regards & Best wishes

Dear Krishnaji & Meenaji,
Greetings to you,
Firstly, we sincerely thank you for having sent the appreciation letter to our organisation, We at DJYM , always strive forward to serve the requirements of the needy poor ones in all the possible ways, we could cater.
We were left with tears and sadness when we came to know about the flood disaster affecting the daily life of our fellow human beings in northern Karnataka. However within the short period, we at DJYM , were able to have the clothes and others been collected to contribute to their lives in daily needs and hope we were able to partly do so.
It was truly your dedication and commitment towards the needy ones that brought us together to a single roof. It was your efforts that called us to reach you at the earliest to have us contribute to the cause together. It were your sincere and big heart, that made us join hands together for a moment to bring in a huge difference in the lives of those affected in the flood attacks.
We are heartfelt and genuinely admire your entire team and your kind self, who stood for the transformation of lives of those needy.
We are proud and great full of being associated with a committed team within and behind you.
Therefore, we salute and thank you for having given us an opportunity to be a part of a common cause. We assure you, our support in all possible forms in any such social activity, where we could come together on a single platform.

MLA, Bangalore (Byatrayanpura)
Dear Sir,
On behalf of all the residents and members of the Samvriddhi Gardenia Apartment Owners Association (SGAOA), I thank you wholeheartedly for enabling amenities in the vicinity of our apartment.
The approach road to the apartment was in total darkness and prone for theft, robbery & fright and that the building being located in openness, always feared snakes and reptiles. By installing street lights, and lighting up the road, a great deal of confidence and security is being felt by the residents of the apartment, and also everybody who takes the road towards the highway.
To add to, the security provided by means of patrol police and the local police station personnel in the area has been commendable. It is highly appreciated by each of the local residents.
This is what a citizen looks up to his leader. I have complete confidence that sense of security, wellbeing and common man’s interest is considered and acted upon under your leadership.
We sincerely thank you for your support and the interest shown towards wellbeing. We look forward for your strong leadership.
A team from the SGAOA is eager to meet you in person and convey our thankfulness. I will follow up and fix up an appointment with you Sir.
Thanks and regards,
Nagesh,
President, SGAOA.
PS: On this occasion, I would also want to thank Mr. Nandish, who has represented us.

Oct 6, 2009: M. Gopalakrishnan: Senior Citizens ID card camp
Dear Mr. Krishna.
Let me, at the outset, congratulate you on some of initiatives such as free medical camp, ID cards for senior citizens etc in the Byatarayanapura constituency. These positive efforts embarked by you will make you felt by the people than heard (unlike other elected representatives)! Please continue the streak with clear focus.
I wish to place on record, my appreciation for all the efforts and arrangements made by your team during the drive on ID cards for the senior citizens at Vidyaranyapura on 2.10.2009.
The response for this drive was over--whelming.
The approach of the volunteers in greeting the senior citizens, helping them filling up the forms, photocopying documents and taking photographs was of professional standards and highly commendable.
A couple of similar drives may be warranted in order to facilitate those who could not make it on 2.10.09.
It would be nice, if a drive for election photo ID cards could also be initiated immediately so that citizens could vote during the ensuing BBMP elections.
In fact, I have been hearing a lot about your various social initiatives from my colleague Kashyap. On 2nd Oct, I have witnessed the efforts that go in organizing events like this, when I took my aunt to the Vidyaranyapura grounds for the senior citizen card program.
Keep up the good work.
Regards,
M Gopalakrishnan

Sep 22, 2009: B. S. N. Sarma: Senior Citizens ID card camp
Sri Krishna Byregowda,
I am very happy at the initiative taken by you in organising a camp for getting the Identity Card for Senior Citizens. My brother informed me at 1.30 PM that the camp would close by 3 PM on 21-09-2009. Even though I reached the camp site at 3.15 PM, the volunteers helped me in processing the applications of myself and my wife.
I expect other representatives also steal a leaf from you in organising not only such camps but other customer needs also.
Regards,

respected sir,
i have been residing in vidyaranyapura for the past 15 years. for the first time we saw bbmp people dig up the drains and clear the pathways in front of our houses. their work has been appreciable because of the strict instructions been given to their higher officials. i think our dear MLA has struck the right cord. hats off to you sir. even our vegetable vendor has begin to feel the effects of your regime . I was shocked when he told me that it was the man we should vote for and not the party.i just hope the public also realise this and standby you and make your tenure everlasting.
thanking you.

Dear KBG Sir,
Thanks for the neatly asphalted road from Srinivaspura Cross(adjacent to Sathnur) till the village school in Srinivaspura. It is really done well with proper sanitation provisions on either sides. Hope we do get another 0.5 km of asphalted road from the school towards the village.
On behalf of Srinivaspura villagers,

Respected Sir,
Congratulations, you have really won many hearts, especially ours. Your simplicity, disarming smile, depth of knowledge in civil works, we really appreciate !
For the last 10 yrs of our stay in this area we have never been able to see, let alone talk, any politician or officials. Now your frequent visits, accompanied by officials who matter, is making a lot of difference. We have now seen things happening actually, a real, pleasant surprise to one and all .
My father ( from a rural belt of Kumta ,North Kenara ) used to admire your father Shri Byregowda for his integrity and clean politics .Hope you have inherited it. We have seen the same enthusiasm in your wife Mrs.Meenakshi too, and you realy make a fantastic combination.
As a concerned citizen we look forward to extend support, and garner support, for those who are really making difference to the society.
We are running an SSI (garment unit ) and you know how difficult it is to run a small industry at these times of difficulties. However with whatever limited resources we can, we pledge our support in your endeavour.
Thanks and Best Rgds
V.V.Hegde & Family.

Dear Krishnabyre Gowda Sir,
I am writing to you to thank you for personally visiting Dodda
Bommasandra to take a look at the road and drains work being done by
BBMP. I had written to you a few months ago about the problems that my
family and few other families living on my street were facing due to
the slow negligent work being done by BBMP. I am now happy to report
that the work is now reaching the stages of completion and all this
work has definitely improved the road and storm water drains
conditions around my house.
I wanted to write to the BBMP officicials too by email to thank them
for the execution of the work, but I always get an auto response that
their mailboxs are full and hence the message cannot be delivered.
I would like to thank you and the BBMP officials for carrying out the
work and completing it.
We will always be hoping for such continued proactive leadership from
you.
Best regards,
Sundar Nadimapalli and Family.
