Mangaluru: It was a much more subdued yet warm homecoming for Namma Kudla’s golden girl M R Poovamma. Nalin also inquired about her meeting with PM Narendra Modi at his home office in Delhi on Wednesday. “I was literally craving for home food and my mother who knows my favourite dishes did not disappoint. The fact that he knew the athletes by their name and also their background from which they came and their exploits was amazing, she said. Compared to the fanfare that was associated with her homecoming from Incheon in 2014, it was a smaller welcome with elected representatives, sports lovers and her family and friends receiving her when she landed at Mangaluru International Airport from Delhi.
