Bengaluru: At a meeting chaired jointly by Karnataka BJP president B Y Vijayendra and Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Assembly R Ashoka, saffron party lawmakers on Tuesday deliberated on how best to corner the Congress government over multiple issues, ranging from shortage of fertilisers to delay in disbursement of salary to employees, in the upcoming session of the state legislature set to start from August 11.
Ashoka, interacting with journalists after the meeting, affirmed that the BJP and JD(S) would work together to seek answers from the government on a range of issues. “We will hold a co-ordination meeting with the JD(S) on August 10 to come up with a joint plan,” he added.
“Among issues we will raise include the stampede at Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru that left 11 dead. We will also question the decision to divide Bengaluru into 5 administrative units,” he said.
