Bengaluru, Dec 13: Veteran Congress leader and former union minister C K Jaffer Sharief has criticized chief minister Siddaramaiah and party’s state president G Parameshwara for their decision to take out election tours separately.

"The party would have benefited if they (Siddaramaiah and Parameshwara) had taken out the election tour together without making it a prestige issue...there was no need for them to tour separately," he told reporters on seeking his reaction on the issue.

Differences had cropped up between Siddaramaiah and Parameshwara over taking out the party campaign across the state.

When their spat became public, AICC general secretary in-charge of Karnataka K C Venugopal stepped in to sort it out. He allowed both the leaders to tour separately.

While Siddaramaiah is touring assembly constituencies represented by Congress party, Parameshwara will tour non-Congress constituencies by this month end.

Guidelines will soon be issued for monitoring asymptomatic cases in COVID care centres," he added.
