‘Financial expert’ Siddaramaiah should become Trump’s economic adviser, says HD Kumaraswamy
Chikkamagaluru: Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Steel HD Kumaraswamy on Monday launched a sharp attack on the Congress-led Karnataka government, accusing it of failing to address key public issues, particularly farmers’ problems, and being caught in internal leadership disputes.
According to a report published by The New Indian Express, speaking to reporters in Balehonnur before attending the valedictory event of the Central Coffee Research Institute (CCRI) centenary celebrations, Kumaraswamy said, Siddaramaiah boasts he has presented record number of budgets. US President Donald Trump is weak in economics and struggling to expand tariffs across the world. Financial expert Siddaramaiah may go to the US to rescue Trump from crisis.
“I have come by road to Balehonnur though my health is not good. CM Siddaramaiah takes helicopter to reach Malavalli and Chamarajanagar though it is only a 30-minute road trip. It is learnt that the CM has spent Rs 47 crore for helicopter rides. He, however, brags he has done much for the development of the state,” TNIE quoted Kumaraswamy as saying.

Kumaraswamy concluded by saying he would reveal details of alleged corruption in the government at an appropriate time.
