Discrimination from district minister: JDS councilors alleged
Ullala City Municipal Council
Mangaluru, Dec 19: Ullala CMC member and JDS state general secretary Dinakar Ullal alleged that by changing various works worth Rs 25 crore sanctioned under Nagarothana scheme of the City Municipal Council, District Minister UT Khader has done injustice to JDS councilors.
Speaking to reporters here on Wednesday, he said that in the last CMC election, the JDS candidates have defeated Congress candidates due to which Congress leaders were disappointed. Now, the sanctioned programmes were changed through the followers of the Minister, he alleged.
Though there was Congress-JDS coalition government in the state, District Minister UT Khader who is also the MLA of the constituency, has involved in hatred politics and thus discriminating the JDS members. Though they have drawn the attention of the Minister and officials, nothing was happened. Next week, the JDS councilors would go to Bengaluru and inform the situation to the party leaders. If the problem was not solved, then they would move the court and bring stay order, he said.
Ullala CMC limits JDS president Musthafa, members UM Jabbar, Khaleel Ullal, Mustaq Patla were present at the press conference.
