VG Siddhartha was a quiet man in life, but his death drew huge attention - a focus that began when he disappeared from a bridge over the Netravati river near Mangaluru on Monday evening. VG Siddhartha was no stranger to politics. As the son-in-law of former Congressman turned BJP leader, SM Krishna, his death saw members of all parties paying tribute. But politics followed him beyond the grave. The mention in a letter, believed to be written by him of the harassment by the IT department, was a charge picked up and amplified by Congress leaders and dismissed by the BJP. A psychiatrist, politicians, businesspersons and students share their take on the life and tragic death of this entrepreneur.
