The Institute of Social and Economic Change (ISEC) has conducted a study on the impact of various programmes and projects of the government and has brought out a book on it. The Chief Minister instructed the head of ISEC to continue the study and provide him with feedback on the beneficial effects of the projects and also any lacunae in them.

"Administration is like a game of football. Nobody will keep the ball for too long. You should pass the ball to the other at the right time and score the goal.

The Chief Minister celebrated his birthday and six months in office by performing 'Go Pooja'. Many of his Cabinet colleagues visited his home and greeted him. Bommai visited the BJP's Lingayat strongman and former Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa and sought his blessings. Speaking to reporters, he expressed his gratitude to the people of the State for their support. He thanked President Ram Nath Kovind, Narendra Modi and Amit Shah for greeting him.
