Mysuru, Apr 21: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, on Saturday, said that he doesn’t even know whether incumbent Mandya MLA M H Ambareesh had accepted the ‘B’ form issued by the party or not.

Replying to queries of media persons near his residence in TK Layout here, the CM said: “The KPCC president has issued ‘B’ form to Ambareesh and he has to contest. I am unaware whether he has received it or not”. 

The chief minister also clarified that said he would not meet Ambareesh. 

Excise Minister R B Timmapur, who was with Siddaramaiah, said he had been urging Siddaramaiah to contest from Badami Assembly segment in Bagalkot district for the development of the region. “He will contest from both Chamundeshwari and Badami Assembly segments,” Timmapur said.

However, Siddaramaiah maintained that he would discuss with the party command and take a decision on contesting from Badami.

Dear CM

You have taken a right decision. No need to bow down to him . He don't know how to talk in  a podium. Talking like bewda. i saw many clips where he is talking like a king.  I think he don't know what is he talking. After getting a cabinet ministry, what was his contribution to the soceity??  ZERO -  So better to keep him away from the party.

Addressing a press conference, the Chief Minister said about Rs 500 crore would be earmarked to distribute to over 10 lakh farmers, who had grown Jowar and also cash compensation to the shepherds who would lose sheep and goats due to natural disasters.

While commending the efforts of the ASHA workers, who are remained in the frontline in fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chief Minister said an additional Rs 3000 would be remitted to their bank accounts as an incentive.

The Chief minister had announced Rs 1610 crore cash relief package to benefit the auto drivers, barbers and washermen, last week.

He had also announced relief package to the farmers, and migrant workers and construction workers.

Replying to questions, he denied that by bringing amendment to the APMC Act, farmers would be suffered.

Brushing aside the criticism over an ordinance brought to the APMC Act by the Opposition Congress and the JD(S), the Chief Minister said “Amendment had been brought after taking care that farmers interests will not be adversely affected”.
