Bengaluru: Former minister and Rajajinagar MLA S. Suresh Kumar marked the 150th day of his “Dinakkondu Ward Nadige” (One Ward a Day) walk with a celebration event at Dayanandanagar ward on Sunday.
Suresh Kumar began the day’s programme with prayers at the Sri Rama temple before flagging off the walk. Former corporators M. Muniraju and Shakeela Muniraju, and mandal general secretary M.S. Sanjay Kumar were present.
Speaking on the occasion, Suresh Kumar said the initiative, now in its 76th week, was aimed at resolving citizens’ grievances on the spot. He said the two outreach programmes together had reached around 20,000 residents and resolved roughly 5,000 complaints. Sunday’s walk covered seven wards — Dayanandanagar, Prakashnagar, Sriramamandira, Rajajinagar, Shivanagar, Basaveshwaranagar and Kamakshipalya — spanning about 11 km.
Mandal president Sudarshan, general secretary Girish Gowda, former deputy mayor Ranganna, and other BJP leaders and workers also took part.
