Replying to DK Shivakumar’s reaction on the spat that happened at the programme in Ramangar, Bommai said, “unveiling of Dr B R Ambedkar and Nada Prabhu Kempe Gowda’s statues was a pre-scheduled programme. Many meetings have been held about it. Media itself is witness as to who triggered the argument. RSS and BJP have nothing to do with this incident. It is a very unfortunate incident. The concerned people should introspect about it.”
Referring to Padayatra of Congress leaders for Mekedatu project, Bommai said, it is a politically motivated programme. “Siddaramaiah has accused that Tamil Nadu BJP leaders are being arraigned against it. Will the Congress leaders of Tamil Nadu support the Padayatra,” Bommai asked.
“We need to work unitedly for the cause Karnataka’s language, land and water. DPR has been prepared for the Mekedatu project. It is before the Central Water Commission. State government has taken the project seriously. Efforts are on to realise it,” Bommai said.
