Deputy Commissioner K.V. Rajendra apprised the officials of the district administration that the Model Code of Conduct for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections will not be an impediment to carrying out drought relief works.
He addressed them soon after a video conference with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah who took stock of the drought situation across the State and reviewed the preparations on Tuesday.
Mr. Rajendra informed the officials that there was no paucity of funds and under no circumstances should any habitation face drinking water scarcity in the months ahead when summer will be at its peak.
