Bengaluru, Jan 20: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah recently bought a water-proof silk saree as a special gift for his wife Parvathi.
As per a report in India Today, the orange-coloured saree costed Rs 1.08 lakhs.
The Chief Minister bought the saree during the inauguration of the Karnataka silk industries corporation in Davanagere.
Interestingly, the CM poured a litre of water on the saree to convince himself that it was water-proof before he bought it.
Bengaluru, Jul 7: Former Health minister and Congress MLA UT Khader has alleged that the state government has purchased coronavirus equipment for more than twice the actual price.
"Rs 500 sanitizers have been purchased for Rs 900 and Rs 9,000 has been paid to Rs 1200 for the thermal metre by the government. Instead of asking to allow him to work, Mr B Sriramulu, being health minister he must work for the people," he said.
He said that three months have passed since the pandemic started but the state government is still struggling to send ambulances to needy patients.
"Instead of ambulance it is sending final rights vehicle to needy people," Khader said.
According to the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, there are 23,474 coronavirus cases in Karnataka including 13,255 and 372 deaths.
Bengaluru, Mar 2: BJP leader and Karnataka cabinet minister BS Sriramulu's daughter Rakshita's wedding will take place with Sanjeev Reddy here on March 5. The nine-day function will cost crores of rupees.
For the wedding, decorations and arrangements are being done at Sriramulu's home here.
The reception will take place in Bengaluru Palace Ground on March 5.
"I couldn't invite you all in person but I tried to welcome you all. Through the media, I am again inviting you all. We are not performing a pretentious wedding. I invite you all on March 5 at Palace Ground," Sriramulu said.
After BJP leader Janardhan Reddy's daughter's marriage in Bengaluru Palace Ground, the marriage of Sriramulu's daughter is being considered one of the costliest marriages in Karnataka's history.
Tirupati, Jul 5: The Karnataka government will soon build a massive pilgrim amenities complex and marriage hall at Tirumala, the hill abode of Lord Venkateswara, at an estimated cost of Rs 200 crore, a temple official said here on Saturday.
The state would soon submit a blueprint for the construction of the Rs 200 crore mega complexes to the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) that governs the hill shrine, the official said.
Consequently, based on the designs, TTD would construct the complexes with the given fund and after completion, they would be handed over to the Karnataka government, he said.
Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa would lay the foundation stone for the mammoth complexes on the hills some time next month, he said.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy is likely to take part in the programme, he added.
Dear Sir,
Keep aside all these type of extra expenditure like spending for statues, monuments, pilgrim amnesties etc.
During this period of virus pandamic, please use all these amount for medicines, medical facilities, food and development of the state. We are facing shortage of medical facilites and the people are dying on the road by not getting a bed in the hospital. Please use these amounts for the same. During this Pandemic not even hindu brothers also accept this offer. Leave all vote politics and concentrate to develop the state.
