Hubballi, Aug 26: Claiming that chief minister B S Yediyurappa's government can’t survive for more than one year, former chief minister Siddaramaiah today said that the mature people of Karnataka would teach befitting lesson to the BJP.

"How can a government survive for a long time, having rebels. They do not have mandate, and they have formed the government in a wrong way, using Congress and JD(S) MLAs," he told media persons here before heading to Badami.

"BJP minister should already have been in flood affected areas, but they are more worried about portfolios. Yediyurappa is repeatedly touring between Bengaluru and Delhi. Union Government has not released funds for flood relief here, and has not announced it as natural calamity," Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader charged.

NDRF and SDRF norms should be relaxed to give liberal compensation to flood-affected people. Centre should have given at least Rs 5,000 crore for immediate relief measures now. Temporary sheds are not yet erected, and survey is also not done properly, Siddaramaiah lamented.

Central team which has come to the State should realistically assess the flood loss, so that people get scientific compensation, he said.

I have no idea about today's process related to appointment of KPCC president, and I am visiting flood-affected areas, he added. MLAs Prasad Abbayya, M B Patil, and others were present.
