IF the affection for mother tongue Kannada runs in his blood, his love for Canada has etched in his heart and mind.
IF the affection for mother tongue Kannada runs in his blood, his love for Canada has etched in his heart and mind. Chandra Arya, a Canadian MP running for the Canada prime minister's post, hails from Karnataka. In 2022, he had made all Kannadigas proud by speaking in Kannada in the House of Commons of Canada. Born in Dwaralu village in Sira taluk of Tumakuru district, Arya keeps visiting his hometown. His relative and Sira MLA TB Jayachandra said, "Arya has not forgotten his roots. He has kept in touch with his friends and relatives. If he becomes Canada PM, that would be a proud moment for Kannadigas and all Indians. Such a development could also help Karnataka and India on the policy front."
