Why Karnataka CM, Ministers visit families of only BJP workers affected by violence, what about other victims: Siddaramaiah

Accusing Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and Home Minister Araga Jnanendra of failure to protect the lives of people in Karnataka, former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah asked Mr. Bommai to quit if he is unable to run the government.

Speaking to reporters on his arrival in Mysuru on July 29, Mr. Siddaramaiah pointed out that a series of murders had taken place in different parts of Karnataka, including the killings in Dakshina Kannada district, in the last few days. “One murder took place in Mangaluru when the Chief Minister was on a visit to Dakshina Kannada district on July 28,” he said.

Mr. Siddaramaiah questioned the Chief Minister’s failure to visit the houses of murder victims belonging to the Muslim community. He pointed out that Mr. Bommai did not visit the house of either Masood or Fazil.
