Bengaluru: Former prime minister and JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda has expressed concern over the suicide attempts by three retrenched employees of Bosch Ltd. Gowda advised the workers not to make attempts to end their lives since such attempts were not a solution to the problem.

The families of these workers are facing lot of problems all these days. I will take up the issue with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Minister for Industries R V Deshpande and Minister for Labour Santosh Lad,’’ he said.
