My Farewell Speech !
I am satisfied with the working of the staff. Apart from regular work, the ministerial staff has been conducting sports competition and celebrating Ganesha festival, Kannada Rajyothsava, and joining Independence and Republic Day Celebrations every year in the High Court. In order to recognize their services and to encourage good employees, we have decided to issue appreciation certificates to the employees recommended by a committee consisting of the four Registrars. I may also mention that on account of their strenuous and sincere hard work in dispensation of justice, I hope the Government will consider their demand for higher pay scales favourably, as recommended by me.
As regards my personal staff, I have had a team of willing workers. Sri. Raghavendra Upadya, Smt. S. Bharathi Bai, Sri M. Suresh Kumar, Smt. Noorunnissa Begum, Sri K.M. Somashekar, my Private Secretaries, Smt. D. Shylaja, my P.A. substitute, Ms. K.K Sheela deserve special mention here. All my personal staff remained sincere, trustworthy, devoted, and dedicated throughout and rendered valuable assistance. Hence I wish to express my gratitude to them now.
Sri. Dathathreya (Retd.) Sri. Bhujabalainh and Sri. Vijaya Kumar, my Court Officers, and other officials attached to my companion Judge viz. Smt. Varalakshmi and Ms. Suma as also Smt. Vidya G. Habbu and Smt. Roopa, who had an occasion to attend my Court, and Sr. Kumbhi Narasimhiah, Section Officer, Accountants II, and the Peons and Jamadars, Sri Krishna Murthy, and driver Subramani, all worked hard and assisted me. Personal Staff Sriyths Mnjunatha Naik, Vedram Suraj Pal, attached to me at my house from the beginning, and P.W.D., horticulture and security staff deserve appreciation for their services along with Gunmen Sriyuths Venkoba Rao, Ramesh and Mariyanna Shetty, my Personal Security Officers attached to Pilot Vehicle, and other drivers, all did their duties well to my satisfaction.
During my visits to various places in Karnataka, the concerned District Judges and the Judicial Officers and the concerned Deputy Commissioner and Superintendent of Police, officers of other Departments like revenue and Police together with their respective staff have made all efforts to make my stay there comfortable. Similarly, the Resident Commissioner, the other officers and officials at Karnataka Bhavan, New Delhi and in particular Sri, Raja took care of me very well on my visits to Delhi and Jaipur via New Delhi. I am thankful to all of them.
During my tenure, there was
demise of some of the eminent former Chief Justices and Judges, distinguished senior
advocates and judicial officers of Karnataka. I remember their good qualities and
the services rendered by them.
