Udupi, Feb 11: Former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa loves and cares people, but incumbent chief minister Siddaramaiah is arrogant and corrupt, who lacks ethics, according to BJP leader and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje.
Speaking to media persons here on Saturday, she alleged that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah can go to any extent for vote bank gimmicks. "He has no ethics. The Congress government has failed utterly to offer pro-people governance," she claimed.
The BJP leaders, including former Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa, will be stay in slums in different parts of the state. The problems of the slum dwellers will be brought to the notice of the state government, she added.
She ridiculed that Congress government has failed to provide basic infrastructure facilities to the people in slums. There are nearly 2,500 slums in state, she said.
Karandalaje said that she is the first MP to get Rs 316 crore sanctioned under Central Road Funds (CRF) - Rs 133 crore was earmarked for Udupi and Rs 183 crore for Chikkamagaluru district for the year 2017-18. Earlier, Udupi received Rs 182 crore and Chikkamagaluru received 44.5 crore under CRF in the year 2016-17, she said.
She said she has raised the issue with the Union Transport Minister Nithin Gadkari over the slow workson the proposed Malpe-Athradi-Theerthalli national highway.
Regarding the incomplete work of the national highway at Padubidri junction, the MP said that the land acquisition in the area is pending and the deputy commissioner has been directed to complete the formalities at the earliest.
On the BJP's preparedness for the upcoming Assembly election, the MP said that the BJP is working tirelessly to revamp in all possible ways to counter the Congress.
She said the party's leaders, who are popular among the masses, are considered for the party tickets to contest and the party has been strengthened right from the booth level.
Awareness will be created on the failure of the Congress-led government among the voters, she charged.
Coming down heavily on AICC President Rahul Gandhi's state tour, she said, "Rahul Gandhi has finally realised the worth of God in his life. He has started the campaign from the constituency in Karnataka, wherein the candidate Anand Singh has also served the jail term, much to the dismay of Congress leaders who always censure BJP leaders for serving the jail term."
She said BJP national president Amit Shah will be visit the temple town after taking part in various programmes scheduled in Dakshina Kannada on February 20.
