BJP MLAs, MP, MLC walk out of KDP meeting

The Hindu  

MP Captain Brijesh Chowta, five BJP MLAs, and MLC Kishore Kumar Puttur walked out of the quarterly Karnataka Development Programme Review Committee meeting on Monday accusing the State government of not sanctioning funds for development works in Dakshina Kannada. Raising the issue, Belthangady MLA Harish Poonja said in the last two years Dakshina Kannada has been battered with heavy rains leading to potholes on main roads and weakening school buildings. Mangaluru city south MLA D. Vedavyas Kamath said the State government has failed to continue with the development works in Mangaluru, which were started by the earlier BJP government as part of ‘Nagara Vikasa Yojane’. Accusing District in charge Minister Dinesh Gundu Rao of failing to get any funds from government for Dakshina Kannada, Mr. Kamath said government has to clarify as to why funds are not getting released for works of the district, which was contributing handsomely to the growth of Karnataka’s economy.
