Kannada actor and director Rishab Shetty met Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday, requesting him to solve the issues concerning the forest department and people living there. The Kantara fame handed over a letter with 20 points on issues related to forest safeguard. He shared a photo with CM Bommai on social media thanking him for responding positively to his request.
Along with the photo, Rishab also shared a video on Twitter. In the video, the actor shared that post-Kantara, he spent some time with forest personnel and people living in the conflict areas. During his stay, he got to understand the problems faced by the people who are living in forest surroundings and even the forest department is facing challenges.
“They need forest watchers to keep an eye on the forest fire. I prepared a list of problems which needs to be addressed and submitted to Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai who has responded positively,” he added.
The caption of the tweet, loosely translated to English, read: “Days after the release of Kantara, I went around the forest, talked to the people on the edge of the forest, discussed with the forest department staff and brought the issues before the honourable Chief Minister, he said that he would resolve them immediately. Thanks to Mr Basavaraj Bommai for responding to the issue.”
