Addressing presspersons in Dharwad on Monday, Mr. Neeralakeri said that Dharwad district had received a raw deal in the previous budget and being a native of Dharwd district, Mr. Bommai should ensure that justice is done to the district in terms of budgetary allocations.
Mr. Neeralakeri said that there is a dire need for upgrading the Karnataka Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS) and Hospital in Hubballi, Civil Hospital in Dharwad and DIMHANS. And, the district needed a multi-specialty hospital.
