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 Pratap,
On the one hand its regretful that they could not retain a gem… Cant expect much from them..!!!!!!!
Anyways, on the other hand I am happy for you.. You are a free bird now, with the blue sky open far and wide for you.
All I can Say is that your capability and your dreams will have a great flight now on.. Surge Ahead… I am with you.. Eagerly awaiting the time to join your endeavors on a full scale…
Jayostute….
It is good that you issued a clarification. I agree that Ravi Belagere’s article(I mean every article) is 90% crap and his language is akin to a sex thriller. But allegations of corruption and loss of moral is something that one cannot ignore. Hence my request for clarification. You helped me save 14 rupees and my time from henceforth!! Belagere seems to think that Times of India is a Lilly-white or a holy cow. But fact of the matter is Times of India is in the epi-center of Paid News Scandal, which national media shamelessly ignored. I was getting unhappy of VK these days due to too many advertisements and articles by institutes lacking respect in Education issue. Anyway I am only happy that you issued clarification and I am happier that Shri V Bhat left advt agency called TOI group. But, it would have been great had some investor( like Vijay Sankeshwar) bought VK back from TOI group. Building something new needs lot of effort, resources and public support. Nonetheless, I wish you all the best for your future. Hope to see you soon!!
Manmohan in 1991 made crisis into opportunity , now we are @ 9 % growth ,

writing will give you new opportunity to establish more urself more
Dear Pratap……
ALL THE BEST.

PLS COME BACK..
hi pratp,
we miss ur article,come back soon wid somethin big………….
Dear Pratap,
Being a big fan of your Bettale Jagattu (Naked World) for years, I sincerely hope you will come up with something really big. You have literally lakhs of fan following and that puts a lot of responsibility on your shoulders.
Neevu adannu nibhayisuttera anta namma nambike.
All the best,
– Kiran
PS: I was very disappointed that Vijaya Karnataka didn’t even put a line about your or Vishveshwara Bhat’s resignations. They terribly let us down. I am not sure if we will continue subscribing to VK if this is the way they treat their stars.
Dear Pratap!
We are always with you and All the best for your new VENTURE!

Hi Pratap,
We really miss your articles. Please retain your writing, even if you change to something else. (in my suggestion you go to HOSA DIGANTA paper)
I was read about VB’s resignation but when i saw saturday paper without BJ i was shocked. But when i read the above article little bit relaxed by imagining that i can read your article shortly in some other paper or media.
All the best to you and VB. Come up with news thing and serve the society in better way.
Once again all the best and extends my support to both of you.
Jai Hind…
Really i con’t except this sudden changes… But we con’t do any thing… just i am waiting for you and V.B sir … Do something good for this socity coz this socity needs your kind of peopel… we gonna miss you and vb really… i feeling very sad… come soon… All the best… you know one thing now i don’t have any interest to read vk seriously…. witout you guys i con’t imagene…. ok take care…. Jai hind… “satya ke yendu jaya sikke sigutte”… hope for best….
Dear Pratap,
It was a real setback for me after hearing the news a bit late as i’m in S’pore on my work.Its my privilege to say I’m among one of them who are reading your column from day one. One can not imagine VK without YOU and VB; its like Sky without SUN & MOON.
I wish SUN & MOON will comeback soon with greater shine and we all will be waiting for you comeback. I’m sure you will make it in your style…
Yogeesh
when politicians and ithers err you publish but when journalists like you quit we have to seek clarification call a press conference/ issue a press statement to make things tangible i have unsubscribed vijayakarnataka
Dear Pratap

On a lighter note I was mentioning this to my wife that Pratap, got married and must be on vacation, and hence he couldn’t come up with an article.

Hi Pratap,
We belive you and Mr. Bhat. You will definitely come back more stronger and mature. Do not compromise to anything. “Sathya meva jayathe” “Dharmo rakshati rakshitaha”

Hi Pratap..We used to purchase vijay karnataka only because of your and V Bhatt’s columns..Without these we cant even imagine Vijay Karnataka..Anyways, we are always with you..Patriots always have to go through lots of hardships..We expect you to resurrect like the Phoenix!!! All the Best

With due respect to you Pratap, you have to mature a lot. Your views on accepting a G-Category site from the Government, whatever might be the circumstances, itself bears enough testimony to the fact that you have to mature. I take pride in your success at a young age but having read some of your articles I did feel that neither your reading enough nor is your analysis balanced. Your views on certain personalities, whatever may be their alleged weaknesses, can only please the gallery. You may discount my views but I wish you all the best!
All the best………………

Hello, why did you took the clarification interview out of the website? What happened? Please keep the clarification. Your interview was a befitting one to ravi Belagere’s nasty comments.
I was really shocked when i didnt find your article In VK last saturday. Then i immediately visited ur site, but it got the response as ‘ The site is no more available’. It was really shocking experience for me!
It was a shocking news that u left VK. But appreciate ur Boldness and Courage.
I started to subscribe and read VK because of ur artcle…I dont wanted to miss ur
articles.
Now Im very scared about VK’s future!!! not about u!!! Because they lost the MAIN pillars…. like World Champion Australia team without Warne!!!
Anyway no problem, if we crush the Sandal, it wont stop giving fragrance. instead it ll give more…
So all the best Pratap Bro,
Pls come up with a ‘BANG’…..with innovative ideas,articles…..
WE R ALL WITH U ALWAYS…….
‘ ALL IS WELL’
