Karnataka Deputy CM Denies Funds To Jayanagar Over BJP MLA’s Attacks On Congress

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has refused development funds to the Jayanagar assembly constituency in Bengaluru, following allegations made by the BJP MLA against the government. Shivakumar stated that the MLA must prove the allegations before receiving any funds. The BJP has criticized this move as vendetta politics. The Jayanagar constituency has not received its allocated Rs 10 crore for development, unlike the other constituencies in Bengaluru. The BJP MLA’s comments against the Congress government are cited as the reason for the denial of funds. The situation may lead to protests from the people of Jayanagar if the grant is not given.
