Even then, I have helped people who have come to me to the extent that I could. Presently, I am contesting the election to provide a proper stage to provide service to the people. I have aimed to provide service to the people by creating a corruption free Mangaluru, Crime free Mangaluru, good transportation system, clean drinking water and development programmes for poor people. The people have supported me,” he said.
