Kalaburagi MP Umesh Jadhav has taken exception to the postponement of the District Development Coordination and Monitoring Committee (DISHA) meeting which was scheduled here for Friday.
Addressing an emergency media conference at Aiwan-e-Shahi Guest House in Kalaburagi on Thursday, Mr. Jadhav said that not conducting the DISHA and Karnataka Development Programme (KDP) meetings is hampering the progress of the district.
“DISHA meeting scheduled for Friday is again postponed suddenly. The district is facing many problems. Sand mafia is ruling the roost and liquor is illegally sold at pan shops. On top of these problems, farmers are facing severe drought. Jal Jeevan Mission works are progressing at a snail’s face. DISHA and KDP meetings where these issues can be discussed are being repeatedly postponed,” Mr. Jadhav said.
