Oppn leader Motamma visits rain-hit areas

District in-charge ministers flayed for not responding to peoples woes

Even the district-in-charge minister of Hassan has so far, not visited rain affected areas despite instructions from Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa. In total, the government has totally failed to take up relief measures in the flood-hit N-K region. Not a single house has been constructed by agencies fixed by the Government. “The affected people would have themselves built house had the government released money to them directly”.
