Amit Shah to Kannadigas: Want solution for Mahadayi water issue? Bring Yeddyurappa to power!

Belagavi, May 6: Taking a potshot at Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah, on Sunday, suggested that had the former worked sincerely, farmers in Karnataka would have received water from the Mahadayi River without a fuss.

Speaking at a public rally in Karnataka's Belagavi, Shah said, "Had Siddaramaiah worked properly, Mahadayi river's water would have reached the fields of farmers in Karnataka."

"Bring B. S. Yeddyurappa to power and within six months, the Mahadayi water dispute issue will be resolved," he pledged.

The states of Karnataka and Goa are at loggerheads on the issue of sharing inter-state Mahadayi river water.

Earlier, over 400 protesting farmers from Karnataka had set off to meet with President Ram Nath Kovind on April 25 put forth their demands regarding the Mahadayi River dispute in New Delhi, claiming that if they weren't met, they would ask his permission to kill themselves.

With the election to the 225-member Karnataka State Assembly edging closer, the state has become a battleground with public rallies being the primary form of warfare.

Both the BJP and Congress have extensively tried to undermine each other in a bid to woo the electorate of the state, as a win in this election is also likely to give an edge for next year's General Elections to the winning party.

Bengaluru, Jun 20: Amid calls for boycott of Chinese products in the backdrop of Indo-China border face-off, former Karnataka chief minister HD Kumaraswamy sought to know from the BJP government in Karnataka the status of the "Compete with China" policy brought during the previous JDS-Congress rule.

Boycotting Chinese products was not easy like sloganeering but required a creative policy and the coalition government's initiative was a model for it, he said in a series of tweets.

"After the border skirmish, some people got the realisation to boycott the Chinese products but during my tenure (as chief minister) a serious thought was given to it," the JDS leader said.

He was apparently referring to growing clamour for boycott of China-made products after a violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in Ladakh left 20 Indian Army personnel dead early this week.

Mr Kumaraswamy said he had brought the Compete With China policy to effectively deal with the neighbouring country.

"My government's objective was to offer jobs to the local residents, snatch away market opportunities for China and discard the Chinese products."

"However, what has the present government done to our scheme? It is not known whether it is still continuing or not," Mr Kumaraswamy said.

The Kumarswamy government had identified clusters and earmarked Rs 2,000 crore for their development.
