The event for presspersons was held to mark `Kannada Patrika Dinacharane'
LIVE INTERACTION: Presspersons in Hubli interacting with Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy through the EDUSAT network, as part of `Kannada Patrika Dinacharane' on Sunday.
HUBLI: An interaction programme for presspersons from all district centres with Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy through the EDUSAT network of engineering colleges of the State on Sunday proved to be a disappointing experience for many.
The programme was organised by the Karnataka Madhyam Academy, State Information Department and the Visvesvaraya Technological University to mark "Kannada Patrika Dinacharane".
It was the first of its kind in the State. However, technical glitches marred the programme.
There were only two telephone lines to receive calls from presspersons across the State and not many of them got a chance to ask questions.
Replying to a question on whether the State Government was contemplating giving any special package for the development of Hubli-Dharwd to attract investment, the Chief Minister said that his Government would develop infrastructure in the twin cities through the schemes of the Department of Urban Development. Some information technology companies had evinced interest in investing in Hubli and Dharwad, he added.
