By Snehalatha,Udupi
Udupi, Dec 15: The media persons have boycotted a press meet of district-in-charge minister Kota Srinivas Poojary over delay of nearly 2 hours, being reported from here on Friday December 14.
The minister Srinivas Poojary was supposed to hold press meet at 12.30pm on Friday, after attending the quarterly progress review meeting at Zilla Panchayat on Friday morning. Since the minister Srinivas was late to attend quarterly progress review meeting on Friday morning, it was concluded at 2.30pm. Meanwhile, the media persons were waiting for the minister to hold the press meet even after 2.30pm, he did not turn up.
The media persons then boycotted the press meet, as the minister has been known to arrive late for any programmes and meetings since he had taken over the charge of district-in-charge minister after the demise of Dr V S Acharya.
