A look at my work in Hangal, where I bridge the gap between legal counsel and community service to build strong local leadership.

True leadership begins on the ground, walking with our people and listening to their concerns. Here, I am seen in a village within Hangal, engaging in a direct conversation with an elder, understanding the issues that matter most to our community. This is the foundation of my work.

The 'Nammuru Tiranga Yatre' is a powerful symbol of our unity and national pride. This video captures the energy of our community mobilization efforts in Hangal, as hundreds of us came together on bikes to celebrate the tricolor, reinforcing our slogan: 'Oggatte namma dikku, Hanagal namma hakku' (Unity is our direction, Hangal is our right).

Education is the key to empowering our future generations. Through MY SEVA TRUST, we are committed to providing essential resources to students in Shikaripura. This moment captures the distribution of free notebooks, a small step towards ensuring every child has the tools they need to succeed.

In this interview with AJ News, I discuss my perspective on the need for strong local leadership in Hangal. I believe that politics should be about service and responsibility, fought in the court of public opinion, not in the courts of law. My professional background as a lawyer informs my approach to public life.

Celebrating our nation's Independence Day by hoisting the flag with the students of Jeevan Jyothi Primary School in my hometown of Moodur village. Instilling a sense of patriotism and duty in our youth is a responsibility I hold dear. These moments build a stronger Bharat for tomorrow.

This is the symbol of our movement: 'Nammuru Nammavaru' (Our Village, Our People). It represents our collective strength, our agricultural roots, and our unwavering commitment to the progress and rights of Hangal. I am proud to stand with this emblem of local pride and grassroots power.

Addressing the next generation of leaders at the Sri Krishna Degree College graduation ceremony. I shared my personal journey and emphasized that true knowledge, not just marks, is the real power. My message to them was to build a life of value and contribute back to society.

Participating in the Ganesh Visarjan procession in Hangal is a moment of pure community joy and cultural celebration. It is in these shared traditions that our bonds are strengthened, reminding us that we are all part of one large family.

About Featured

When I visit a village for a dialogue, my team does not just record grievances. My legal assistant documents specific local issues like water access, road maintenance, or civic concerns, and we follow up to ensure they are addressed. This approach ensures that every interaction on the ground leads to tangible accountability rather than empty promises.
