B.B. Chimmanakatti had made way for the former CM in the Assembly constituency
Congress leader and former Minister B.B. Chimmanakatti said that former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is not welcome to contest from Badami next time.
“I vacated my seat for Mr. Siddaramaiah in the last elections. He promised that I would be made an MLC. But he has gone back on his word. My importance has been reduced in Badami, which is my home constituency. If Mr. Siddaramaiah wants to contest Assembly elections again, let him do so from Varuna,” he said in Badami in Bagalkot district on December 6.

On November 30, a team of officials from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Water Resources Department (WRD) and Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) conducted a joint inspection of a rainwater vent below the Chennai Bypass Road in Thiruneermalai. This marks the second time NHAI and WRD have carried out an inspection following a request being made by residents. They want NHAI to widen the vent located below the Bypass Road to facilitate rainwater drainage from ‘Nattukalvai’. The office bearers of the Federation of Welfare Associations accompanied the officials.
