All schemes of Congress government to continue: CM Kumaraswamy
Siddaramaiah’s budget has many things for Coastal region, North Karnataka
Bengaluru: All projects of the previous Congress government have been pursued, said CM HD Kumaraswamy. He stated this during a press conference at the Vidhana Soudha.
“Siddaramaiah had presented the budget in last February, and all of his programs will continue. Today I did not read his budget. It would be six o'clock in the evening if I read that budget. Many programmes for minorities, backward classes were announced in Siddaramaiah's budget. There should not be any confusion about this,” Kumaraswamy said.
“There are criticisms that more programmes have been given to Hassan and Mandya. Whereas, Hassan, Mandya have got only Rs 150 to Rs 200 crore aid. Did not give more than this. Siddaramaiah's budget has announced many projects for Karavali and North Karnataka. All those projects will continue,” Chief Minister Kumaraswamy added.
“The central government has paid nothing to waive off farm loans. We have given more preference to North Karnataka. I will answer in assembly regarding how much I have given to Belagavi, Bidar, Bagalkot, and Vijayapura.”
“I do not want BJP leaders’ appreciation. Certificate of the people of the state is significant for me. I have presented the best budget with the help of Congress. Rahul Gandhi has tweeted regarding farm loan waiver. Projects announced in this budget and those taken by Congress government will continue,” HDK stated.
DCM Parameshwara and others were present.
