1. Amit Shah rolls out campaign in Karnataka by alleging power tussle between CM and Deputy CM
Building up tempo for the BJP’s poll battle for Lok Sabha elections in Karnataka, Union Home Minister Amit Shah accused the Chief Minister and Deputy CM of neglecting the interests of the State due to their power tussle, and trying to politicise the issue of drought assistance from the Centre.
Even as Mr. Shah accused the Congress government of delaying the process of sending the memorandum to the Centre for drought assistance by three months, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah questioned the Union Home Minister’s moral right to seek votes from the people of Karnataka without releasing Central aid for drought relief.
