As part of the Statewide protest against the Congress government for what it called ‘anti-farmer’ policies, the city BJP unit in Mysuru staged a demonstration in front of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Statue in Town Hall, raising slogans against the government.
The protest was led by Krishnaraja MLA T.S. Srivatsa, who hit out at the Siddaramaiah government for releasing Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu.
He lashed out at the government for its move to amend the APMC Act and claimed that the BJP government had introduced the legislation for protecting the farmers’ interests.
