Karnataka man names son ‘Annaramaiah’ after Siddaramaiah

A Karnataka ex-serviceman, Rajappa Poojary, has named his newborn son ‘Annaramaiah’ after former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. The name combines ‘Anna’ from the Anna Bhagya scheme with ‘Ramaiah’ from Siddaramaiah’s name. Rajappa and his wife, Ambika, said the scheme helped poor families access food. They had also planned to name their baby ‘Parvathiramaiah’ if they had a girl.
