I received thousands of them and will give them to the library in Karkala (Udupi district) and any additional ones will be given to gram panchayats,” he added. “It is a good response and I had stated that I would donate them to the library. Talking about the response he received from people, Kumar said, “People gave books and the chief minister gave me Kannada and the Culture department. “I request that no one give me flowers and other items but instead give me Kannada books,” the minister had said, adding, “Read one paper a day and buy a book a month and if we do this, we can save Kannada.” V Sunil Kumar, the newly sworn in minister for Energy, Kannada and Culture on Monday requested people who come to congratulate him not to gift flowers and other items but present books instead. A simple request to gift books instead of flowers by a newly elected minister in Karnataka has turned into a campaign of sorts to promote and save the Kannada language as people came forward and gifted him thousands of books.
