Former Minister and BJP MLC A.H. Vishwanath on Tuesday questioned former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s contribution to the welfare of the Kuruba community in Karnataka.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru, Mr. Vishwanath lashed out at the Congress leader for “making no meaningful contribution” for the welfare of the community to which he belonged. Both Mr. Siddaramaiah and Mr. Vishwanath belong to Kuruba community. “What have you given the community, which stood by you?” the BJP leader asked. “Your contribution is nothing. You failed to even develop the Karnataka Sheep and Wool Development Corporation started by former Chief Minister Devaraj Urs,” he said.
