K'taka CM urges voters to hand over "empty mug" given to state by PM Modi to JDS candidate in Kolar
Kolar: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, while addressing a roadshow in Bangarapet town of Kolar Lok Sabha constituency, called on voters to hand over the "empty mug" given to the state by PM Modi to the JDS candidate in Kolar and ensure victory for the Congress candidate.
He criticised Modi and Deve Gowda for allegedly deceiving the people of Chikkaballapur with false promises. Siddaramaiah questioned why the state's share of tax money, drought grants, and flood relief were not provided, despite the promises made.
He accused Modi of waiving off loans for the rich while neglecting farmers' loans and failing to provide minimum support prices for crops. Siddaramaiah asserted that Modi's "empty mug" was a symbol of the fraud committed against the state in the 15th Finance Commission.
Siddaramaiah challenged Deve Gowda to fill the mug with the losses and injustices faced by the state. He also criticised Deve Gowda for his previous statements and alliances, urging voters to reject the "empty mug" of Modi.
Siddaramaiah expressed confidence in the victory of the Congress candidate, Gautam, in Kolar and called for a stronger mandate in Bangarapet Assembly Constituency to empower MLA Narayanaswamy.
