Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on Friday said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) were friends but BJP leaders land in Telangana to criticise the BRS only to deceive Telangana people.
Mr. Shiv Kumar was speaking at street corner meetings and road shows in Kodad and Huzurnagar constituencies in support of Uttam Padmavathi and Uttam Kumar Reddy on Friday. He said people were vexed with the BRS rule and were ready to defeat them.
Criticising the defects noticed in the Kaleshwaram project, he said it reflected the kind of corruption in the BRS government. He referred to the Nagarjuna Sagar project constructed by Congress decades ago and asked when such an old project was safe how come a new project constructed with thousands of crores was developing cracks?
