The Karnataka Congress government led by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah will lead a “Chalo Delhi” protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on Wednesday against the NDA government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi opposing “disparity” in devolution of funds, non-release of compensation for implementing drought-relief work and denial of permission to implement irrigation and drinking related projects in the State.
Off to Delhi
Mr. Siddaramaiah, Deputy Chief Minister and KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar, Ministers and legislators of the Congress of the State left Bengaluru on Tuesday evening to stage the protest on Wednesday at 11 a.m. Perhaps, this is for the first time the entire team of State government is protesting against the Centre at the national capital.
