Dear residents of Bengaluru South,

I pen down these words with a spirit filled with determination.It is with great honor and humility that I, Dr. Harish Gowda, step forward to present myself as a candidate for your trust and support in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

I want to share a glimpse of my journey that has been shaped by the values of hard work, dedication, and a deep-rooted commitment to serving humanity.

Born into a middle-class family in 1984, I grew up in the embrace of a humble village in Kunigal Taluk, Tumkur district. My early years guiding me towards a path of education and service.

With unwavering determination, I embarked on the pursuit of knowledge, earning my stripes at the prestigious Bengaluru Medical College for my MBBS and later pursuing my MS at Mysore Medical College. For over a decade, I had the privilege of serving as an Associate Professor of Surgery at KIMS and BOWRING Hospital, where my passion for teaching and healing converged.

Driven by a profound sense of duty towards the marginalized,I ventured into the heartlands, establishing free super-specialty clinics and organizing countless rural camps. Witnessing the transformative impact of accessible healthcare on the lives of thousands reaffirmedmy resolve to champion the cause of social development.

Upon my arrival in Bengaluru, my commitment to the welfare of the underprivileged led me to assume the mantle of Secretary of the Surgical Society Bengaluru, where I endeavored to shape a future where quality healthcare knows no barriers.

Today, as I stand at the threshold of a new chapter, I carry with me a vision forged in the crucible of experience-a vision rooted in the belief that every individual, regardless of their background or circumstance, deserves access to high-quality healthcare and education.

My foray into politics may be a departure from the familiar, but rest assured, my commitment to social service remains unwavering. I pledge to be a voice for the voiceless, a champion for the marginalized, and a beacon of hope for all who dare to dream of a brighter tomorrow.

In me, you will find not just a candidate, but a comrade in the pursuitof progress-a servant leader dedicated to the upliftment of every soul within our beloved Bengaluru South.

Together, let us embark on a journey towards a future defined by inclusivity, opportunity, and prosperity. Together, let us build a tomorrow where no one is left behind.

With profound gratitude and boundless optimism,
