I bow to the great son of #Karnataka Sir #MVisvesvaraya on his Jayanti.

The visionary engineer, scholar and statesman devoted his entire life to our nation, spearheading several transformational projects.

Sir MV was a strong proponent of industrialise or perish.

When Sir MV was offered the position of Dewan of Mysore State, he summoned all his relatives and took a word from each one of them that she/he will not ask for any favour from him once he becomes Dewan.

Only after all of them agreed did he accept the position.
