Mysuru: MLC Dr. Yathindra Siddaramaiah clarified on Sunday that he holds immense respect for Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar, the former Maharaja of Mysuru, and denied making any derogatory remarks about him. Speaking to the media in Mysuru, he stated that the late king’s governance has been an inspiration, and he has always spoken with admiration and respect at various events held in Wadiyar’s name.
Yathindra emphasized that he never meant to undermine the contributions of Nalwadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar. “I only meant that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is working to develop Mysuru in line with the Maharaja’s vision,” he said. Referring to the recently held Sadhana Samavesha, Yathindra highlighted that over ₹2,500 crore has been allocated by CM Siddaramaiah for Mysuru's development, a record amount post-Independence by any chief minister.
He further accused the opposition of lacking issues to criticize and hence resorting to twisting his statement for political mileage. "Let them show if any other CM has sanctioned funds of this magnitude for Mysuru’s development," he challenged.
