Not Goodbye, but a SHORT break to Bettale Jagattu!
Date : 10-12-2010, Friday | 291 Comments
Dear Sri Sureshji,
I would like to inform you that, I am unable to continue my service at Vijaykarnataka since I had publicly taken a oath to work ONLY under Vishweshwar Bhat, whom I adore and emulate. I kindly request you to relieve me from my service.
Well, Sureshji, I know I am going to miss your smiles and little chit-chat. Anyways, thank you for your faith and co-operation. I wish you the very best. Please kindly do the needful.
As ever
Pratap Simha
My beloved readers, this is text of my resignation which I sent to our HR Suresh. Yes, I have tendered my resignation since I cannot work under anyone except VISHWESHWAR BHAT. Guyz, wait for few more days or months, we will come up with something really BIG. Have faith in our ability and integrity. Don’t give heed to rumour mills and SLANDEROUS campaign by “Intellectually impotent”(Vichara Napumsaka) thugs. I will SHOOT myself, rather letting you down. I hope, you will continue to love me even in the SHORT absence of Bettale Jagattu.
Catch you as soon as possible!!

hi *SIMHA*
The moment i read that letter very first thought came to my mind is “OMG, I cant imagine my Saturday morning starts without BJ” (no surprise that already someone have mentioned it)
Waiting for your comeback…. hope we may meet regularly after your comeback rather than once in a week……
enjoy the vacations…….:)
come back with a BANG & stay so…
Dear Pratap,
i wil miss ur article a lot, who else can give us unbiased, proof based, honest article.
Will also miss V BHAT, he has his unique style of writing, like day to day conversations, filled with humour but nevertheless, the most informative.
wishing u both all the success, which u truly deserve, u have the blessings love and prayers of millions of kannadigas with you, be back with a bang,
until then take care.
Namasthe Pratap Sir,
Come back soon…..We kannadigas are with u always….

Hi Pratap,
We really miss your articles/writing. Please retain your writing habbit even if you change to something else.
Dear Pratap,
Best of luck, hope to see you back soon. You have stated “we will come up with something really BIG”, looking forward to it.
Please do not come back. Disappear

It was very Shocking to hear that you are no more with VK. Anyway All the very BEST for your UJWALA Bavishya.
Till now there was some one whom we could really rely on, assuming that atleast there is some one who is with us and awakening these BLADI ….. Culprit Politicians by your writings.
It seems now those Buggars [Culprit Politicians] can have a peaceful sleep.
Kindly come soon in whichever form [Tele media or paper media] with more Maturity, Robustic which brings awareness for the people to wake up and revolt against these Culprits and ee Vyavaste.
All the very BEST BUddy.
Hi Prathap,
No point in working there. It will soon become a pro congress, anti hindu paper.
And we the readers will not even look at it when you guys are not there.
We will remember the great newspaper that TEAM VB produced, for ever.
Good luck and looking forward for that BANG!!

We are expecting something really big from you and mr bhat.. no matter what we will always be with you..
Dear Prathap
I always however as far as possible without fail I just passionately go through your ‘bettale jagattu’ artcles.
I’m sure ‘real intelligent person’ (we have several ‘nominal intelligentsia’ to name few communists, psuedo-secularits…) like you has taken a right decision at the right point of time.
Fortunately, unfortunately now a days Times of India & its susidiaries have crossed all the record limits to become the most famous ‘garam masala’ newspaper among all prominent daiies in India.
I’m sure there shall be a well think process behind your decision, you might have taken a step back, however you will leap forward 4 steps ahead of Times of India & all other pseudo secular media barrons.
Wish you all the best in your endeavourmay God bless your ways.
Eargerly awaiting your ‘bettale jagattu’ again…
Regards
Suresh K

Hi Pratap,

dear sir,
we miss you n BHAT sir’s articles…

to get a big, we must loose small things….
for a big one, you’re trying….
but there’s no compromise on your articles with your BULLET Wordings…
really i miss this Saturday with your article.
anyway, once again wish you all the best sir….
thank u
Ravi Belagere has made very serious allegations. We the readers agree with your ideologies but not slavery to BJP leaders as accused by “Hi Bangalore”. He has also accused you of misusing your access to politicos to get a site for yourself.
People expect kinds to Barkha to be exposed( not come clean), as they have known illicit associations.
But people want you to come clean and give facts to people who follow you( and also emulate you). Just calling him Intellectually impotentâ€(Vichara Napumsaka) is not enough. Come clean on the BDA site allocation matter and allegations of giving wrong information on to authorities (introducing wife as sister).
Barkha’s silence confirmed peoples fears that she indeed act as “go between”. Now you also remained silent on allegations against you. People are hurt to read such thing about you. First time in my life have I spent 14 rupees to read that paper, for you and Shri Bhat were on the cover. Choice is yours, come clean or reap the fruits of your misdeeds.
enidhu
Hi prathap,
Good that you have resigned. Where was the alternative? But return the site too. Mysore may not be the place to build a house as you have decided to serve Mr.Bhat. You better write more balanced way.
Your resignation or their Dismissal was expected. It made no difference
Jai Hind.
Hi pratap,
Its shocking news for me. But i hope u will come back soon. All the best dude
Hi Pratap,
I am not surprised by Shri. Vishweshwar Bhat and you moving out of Times group. But, what surprised me was that they retained people like you after taking over VK. Given the quality of their news (rather gossips…), a “Leading National Daily” that relies on glamorous supplement for its existence.
Now we can get to know more about people attending different PUBS in the city through VK. What an exciting way to start your day!!!
Keep going, waiting for your next piece of “ಬೆತà³à²¤à²²à³† ಜಗತà³à²¤à³”…
Regards,
Abhijith
Dear Pratap
It is a bold step taken by you and fallow the foot step of your guru Shri V. Bhat.

After hearing here, you are coming with Big. I am waiting curiously it should be Big …
All the Best!!!!!
Don’t make wait for long……..
Be posting article in Web atleast…..
All the best
All d best…………..we all wid you
Hi Pratap,
Refering HB , Its very sad to hear news. Hope time and yourself only give truthful answer.

Dear Sir, Please come back, we want to see you on screen, please host your own news channel. we are eagerly waiting for your comeback.
We will all miss your articles, which were always a eye opener. Hope to see you seen in a very BIG way. All the best.
Hi Pratap,
When Mr. Bhat quit from VK, we guessed it and its true now!! we definitely back you. All the best
Dear Pratap,
I am an ardent fan of ur & VB’s article in Vijaykarnataka. I am staying in gujarat for 3 years now and never missed both article even once. Today when i opened the epaper direct 8th page. For my shock, i found some other column there. Immediately i checked twitter and got this news. Since VB has resigned, i had expected this to happen, frankly.I dont know what is cooking there, but really felt disappointed by these developments. Still i congratulated u for coming out that media group(i remember u were criticizing TIMES in many occasions). So, best wishes for whatever ur future plans. Atleast for the time being why, why cannot u continue publishing Bettale jagattu every week in this website. Please.
