MP Pratap Simha’s Irresponsible attitude during central team’s visit is Condemnable: A.K Subbayya
Ponnampete, Sept 15: The irresponsible attitude displayed by MP Pratap Simha during the visit of the central team, which had come to assess the extent of damage caused by floods and landslides in Kodagu district, is most condemnable,” stated former MLA AK Subbayya.
In a release issued here on Saturday, he said that a central assessment team had visited Kodagu to assess the damage caused by natural disaster and recommend the central government for suitable compensation. MP Pratap Simha who was present on the spot when the central team visited Hebbatageri village near Madikeri, has attempted to divert the attention of the team by pointing to unrelated issues such as land transition, resort construction, etc. The MP has copied some of the environmentalists' readymade statements and tried to conceal the fact. It is not the job of Pratap Singh to do being an MP. Instead, this is an irresponsible attitude. This move of the MP is likely to prevent the fund that was supposed to come from the center, Subbayya expressed concern.
“MP Pratap Simha has done injustice to the Kodagu’s people and acted as an anti-people by diverting the central team’s attention to other issues instead of shifting their focus towards the losses and difficulties occurred in Kodagu and get the maximum possible relief fund from the center. It is a welcomable move that a local BJP leader openly condemned the act of the parliamentarian on the spot, “ Subbayya opined.
