Former CM accuses BJP government of procrastination
Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said the Congress party seeks to build pressure on the BJP government in Karnataka to start work on the Mekedatu project by taking out a padayatra.
Responding to queries from reporters in Mysuru, Mr. Siddaramaiah said the State Government is procrastinating over the project. Though the Detailed Project Report (DPR) had been prepared by the previous Congress government, the incumbent government has not been able to start work on the project.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
