Home minister moves into CM's residence

He has vacated the Government bungalow Number 3 on Race Course Road, all for the sake of the CM.

Acharya said, the CM, who is a resident of Number 4, Race Course Road, had requested him that he required the adjacent house for official meetings. Anugraha is adjacent to Krishna, the home office of the CM. Barring late CM R Gundu Rao and J H Patel, the rest had resided at Anugraha.

Sources in the CMO said that Yeddyurappa did not reside at Anugraha though it was allotted to him. He considers the bungalow on Race Course Road as most suitable for him, sources added.
