All these dreams are today being fulfilled step by step, he said, "We have journeyed for about six and half decades now and it is time for us to introspect. Every Kannadiga has to introspect as to what his or her contribution is to build Karnataka, because if every Kannadiga resolves to build this state, Kannada naadu will become the greatest."
