f parents send their kids to hostels,the children send their parents to the home for aged” Horatti
Selfishness is brewing in people’s minds and the social concern is declining.The need of the hour is the minds that strive to build a good society,opined Speaker of the State Legislative Council Basavaraj Horatti.
Speaking at the distribution of awards and the release of a book ‘Saamanyara Asaamanya Avva’ at Srinivasa Garden here on Thursday,he said at a time when the social concern was steadily declining,former chief minister Basavaraj Bommai was doing such social service under a trust named after his mother.
If there is anyone who gives birth to her kid despite losing her life,it is the mother only.None can repay in terms of anything for what she does for the kids.The lap of a mother was like the highest court.
Horatti said parents should bring their children to such good programs so that they realize the importance of mothers.
If children are sent to a residential school,they will not know the hardship of their parents.Don’t forget that if children are not well cared for, they will send their parents to old age homes.His mother would sell milk and yogurt to pay for his college education.
” I have worked with SR Bommai.His name was immortalized in a court order. He was a visionary leader.
Her son Basavaraja Bommai has been involved in many projects including publishing books in trust in his mother’s name.
I have also made an Avva Seva Trust in my mother’s memory but have not brought out the books.I will bring out books about mothers from Avva Seva Trust”,he added.
Mother relationship is more than God
