I have land in my wife's name in B C Road. I had purchased it when I was practising Law. That time it was a barren land. My mother, my sisters (unmarried then) and all family members worked hard to convert this in to a fertile land full of greenery. We used to grow paddy, vegetables, coconut and other crops. I was interest in agriculture then and even now I enjoy being amidst the natural greenery. This is the reason why my family is still settled at Bantwal.

WALKING- THE BEST EXERCISE My father was working in Krishna Mill. He used to walk to the factory everyday. That was his exercise. That was the secret of their long life. My mother died at the age of 95. I firmly believe that the more we walk, the more our life span increases. It also helps us keep healthy and helps keep life style diseases like diabetes, blood pressure at bay. The more we travel in vehicles, the lesser is our life span.
