Presenting his maiden budget, Chief Minister and Finance Minister Basavaraj Bommai has considered some of the long-pending demands from Dharwad district, where he grew up.
The Chief Minister has announced that to make hi-tech treatment available in north Karnataka, a regional cardiac centre of Jayadeva Institute of Cardiology would be established at a cost of ₹250 crore in Hubballi and allocated ₹1,000 crore for the much-delayed Kalasa Banduri Nala Project, for the implementation of which he had held a padayatra while in the Opposition.
