Special Correspondent

BANGALORE: A supporter of the former Prime Minister and Janata Dal (Secular) supreme, H.D. Deve Gowda, on Tuesday created a minor flutter in the Legislative Assembly hailing him and throwing leaflets from the visitors' gallery denouncing the Deputy Chief Minister, Siddaramaiah.

Immediately after the Speaker adjourned the session for lunch, the man, identified as Huliyur Manjunath from Mudigere in Chikmagalur district, shouted slogans before being whisked away by security personnel of the Assembly. The marshals took him into custody.
