Former chief minister and JD(S) state president H D Kumarswamy on Friday said, “It is a crime on the part of the state government to give permission to the legislators to go on foreign tour when the state is reeling under severe drought.”
Speaking to reporters here, the Kumaraswamy slammed Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar and his government.
“They should not have given permission for the tour. I do not blame the legislators who have gone on the tour. Instead it is a crime on the part of the government to give them permission,” he said.
JD (S) legislators are also part of the team that left for a study tour to South American countries on Thursday.
Kumaraswamy added that in view of the upcoming Assembly elections, the JD (S) will tour the state in five teams from September 5.
The JD (S) is also organising a Nayak community convention in Chitradurga on October 1 and a convention of physically- challenged persons in Bangalore on October 7.
On the garbage issue in Bangalore, he said, “Let Bangaloreans feel the heat. They have to elect right people or else similar problems will continue.”
