Yeddyurappa out at CM over quota promise

Bengaluru, Oct 8: BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa on Saturday accused Chief Minister Siddaramaiah of trying to mislead SCs, STs, and other backward classes on increasing reservation in employment and education to 70% ahead of the Assembly election.

Addressing the executive committee meeting of BJP OBC wing, he said the fact that the chief minister has promised to increase the reservation a few months before the election proves that he is not serious about it. He should have done it soon after coming to power if he had any concern for these communities, he added.

Siddaramaiah has been making a lot of promises to people with an eye on the elections. None of the government schemes has been implemented properly. The only achievement of the government in the last four years is looting the state exchequer and corruption, he charged.

Bengaluru, Mar 7: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday said that the Upper Krishna Project (UKP) will be completed within the next three years.

Speaking in the Assembly, the Chief Minister said: "After discussing with the officials of the finance department, we have decided to allocate Rs 10,000 crore funds for the third phase of UKP. This project will be completed within a span of three years."

Yediyurappa also said that the government will hold talks for additional funds from the Central government.

The leader of Opposition, Siddaramaiah, interrupted and said that the CM has announced this just to gain the confidence of MLAs from north Karnataka.

"The government could have announced it in the budget itself or else the Chief Minister could have announced it at the time of discussion on the budget. Where are the funds with the government to complete the project? CM has announced this just to gain the confidence of MLAs who hail from north Karnataka," said Siddaramaiah.

Deputy Chief Minister Govinda Karajol while speaking to the media welcomed the Chief Minister's statement and said that the earlier government didn't allocate a single penny in the last seven years he added.
