Gowda recounted past interactions with Darshan, mentioning a time when they had a disagreement.

"A man who has grown hypocrisy will not last long," Gowda remarked, insinuating that Darshan's rise was unsustainable and fueled by flawed ambition. He added, "The tears of my children have been paid today."

Gowda drew a metaphor comparing life's precarious journey to driving a car with a bad grip, implying that Darshan's actions were bound to lead to disastrous consequences. He further lamented the indirect role Darshan played in two deaths, criticizing the lack of early intervention by authorities. He criticized the police department's failure in the Mysuru case, suggesting that timely action could have prevented the tragic outcomes.
