Refusing to comment on the announcement of an integrated township at the historical Kunigal Stud Farm, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Sunday said he had suggested shifting of Bangalore Turf Club (BTC) to Kunigal.
When asked about the social media post of Urban Development Minister B.S. Suresh on the integrated township at the stud farm, the Chief Minister evaded a direct answer and told presspersons in Tumakuru: “You ask him about it”.
Responding to questions on the proposed closure of the stud farm, started by Tipu Sultan, the Chief Minister said he had suggested shifting of the Bangalore Turf Club from the heart of Bengaluru to Kunigal. “There are about 400 acres of land in Kunigal Stud Farm and about 80 acres (at the BTC).”
