Housing Minister V. Somanna, who is contesting from Varuna Assembly segment in Mysuru as a BJP candidate, has questioned former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s contribution to the constituency.
Participating in an interaction programme organised by Mysuru District Journalists’ Association (MDJA) here on Sunday, May 7, Mr. Somanna said Mr. Siddaramaiah has represented the constituency twice since it came into being in 2008 while his son has served as an MLA for one term between 2018 and 2023.
Yet, Mr. Siddaramaiah, who had served as Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly and Chief Minister after his election from the constituency, had failed to leave his “footprint” of development in the constituency, he said.
