The MP’s father was not keeping well for sometime now, and expired about ten days ago. “He was supposed to come to our function today but he could not make it to our community lunch as he is busy conducting all the rituals following his father’s death, and is right now in Chennai,” said Vilas Deshmukh, member of Harlur Somasundrapalya Residents Association.
 
Kupendra Reddy is a 58-year-old Rajya Sabha member since 2014, who will remain an MP till 2020. He is considered as one of the richest men in Bangalore. Originally from the Congress party, he is now with the JD (S).

All those who were trying to reach him can contact him from next week when he is expected to report to his office in Iblur.
 
An MBBS doctor, a physician to be precise, Dr Hanumanthappa was 75 when he breathed his last.
 
The inspector is right now in his hometown and is not picking up any phone calls, unless really important.
 
If the residents have any traffic-related complaints, it’s best to wait till he returns as there is no one at the station who can fix any important complaints that you might have.
 
The 42-year-old traffic inspector is in his hometown as part of his father’s last rites.
