Bagalkote: Shirahatti Jagadguru Fakeera Dingaleshwara Swamiji has accused that the corruption in the state has reached such a level where even the grant allotted for the Matts requires a 30% commission to be given before their release, he said.
Speaking at the concluding program of the Krishna-Mahadayi-Navali Sankalpa Yatre organized by the Uttara Karnataka Swabhimani Vedike at Badangadi in Bilagi Taluk on Sunday night, the Swamiji said, “Only after having taken a percentage from the grants allotted to the Matts, do any of the construction works begins. Otherwise it doesn’t “, he expressed his sadness.
“We have foolish governments coming in now. Only if the state’s farmers run a protest modelled after the farmers' protest in North India which continued without them admitting defeat to deaths and injuries, only then will we get food. Otherwise, we will not get anything. We have to become very clever”, Fakeera Dingaleshwara Swamiji urged the farmers.
