Corporators slam Priya Krishna

Two days ago, Priya Krishna had staged demonstration at the launch of various development projects at Nagarabhavi by Mayor S K Nataraj, Member of Lok Sabha Ananth Kumar, ministers R Ashoka and Somanna among others. The programme was interrupted for a brief while. Priya Krishna contended that he was not invited to the function organised in his constituency.

Refuting Priya Krishna's claim that ignoring him was breach of protocol, Umesh Shetty said an invitation was sent to him on February 8 and the programme was set on a day to suit the MLA, but he was bent on staging a drama at the venue.

Shanthakumari alleged that Priya Krishna threatened the contractors through his henchmen not to take up works in his constituency.

During the press conference, corporators R Prakash, Mohan Kumar, Roopa Devi, N Shakuntala, V Vageesh, and chairpersons of Standing Committees H Ravindra and Gangabyraiah were present.
