RDPR Minister K.S. Eshwarappa had arranged for devotees’ visit to Om Shakti temple in Tamil Nadu, alleges Congress district president H.S. Sundaresh
Shivamogga District Congress Committee president H.S. Sundaresh has alleged that COVID-19 cases increased in Shivamogga because of RDPR Minister K.S. Eshwarappa. The Minister had arranged a special trip for hundreds of people to Om Shakti temple in Tamil Nadu, and many of the devotees had tested positive for Covid-19 after returning home.
In a media conference in Shivamogga, Mr. Sundaresh said the district did not have any Covid-19 case. But, within a couple of days, the number increased to over 100. “Mr. Eshwarappa had arranged trips to Tamil Nadu. I appeal to the Governor to dismiss him from the cabinet,” he said.
