The protesters, who gathered in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner in the city, held Mr Siddaramaiah completely responsible for the suicide spree of farmers in Karnataka and a recent Supreme Court verdict on Cauvery issue in favour of Tamil Nadu.

Addressing the protesters, Nalin Kumar Kateel, Member of Parliament from Dakshina Kannada constituency, called Mr Mr Siddaramaiah a “murderer” and “cheat”.

“Mr Siddaramaiah had once called Prime Minister Narendra Modi a murderer. Now the people of Karnataka have realised that Mr Siddaramaiah himself is a murderer. A large number of farmers had to end their lives because of the anti-farmer policies of Karnataka government. Several police officers also committed suicide unable to bear torture and harassment from this government.

Shantaveerappa Gowda, State president of BJP Raita Morcha, Rajeev Bhandary, District president of BJP Raita Morcha and Sanjeeva Matandoor, District president of BJP also spoke on the occasion.

raitha morcha... i can't see any raita in the above picture.. only bjp workers.

what siddaramaiah can do on cauvery or farmers suicide. cauvery issue ordered by supreme court and farmers taking extreme steps for their loan burden.

Blaming other party is an easy task. Solving a problem is a difficult task. What did BJP as a ruling party do to solve this problem during the tenure of Yeddy, DVS and Shettar? Bull shit.

CM for what. he not even responded to normal peoples issue on cauvery water. 4 days protest, curfew if he cannot stop this, why we need CM like him.

Bjp shut your mouth, kateel is a big criminal, Murderer

Bjp murdabad, Congress Jindabad.

Bjp seriously u guys are gone mad. suicides cannot be called as murders. farmers should take their own responsibility.. why only blaming govt.

BJP is out of mind.. farmers suicide is a trend now, they know their family will get lakh of rupees. and also many burden because of the loan they have taken from the bank, not only farmers here normal people also a loan defaulters of bank unable to pay the loan they will take extreme step but in karnataka for farmers suicide only matters.

Yes siddaramaiah is a big murderer.
