“While the State has excelled in several fields and has successfully implemented several administrative reforms, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai is talking about the Uttar Pradesh model, a State which is at the bottom at the national level,” chairman of KPCC campaign committee and former Minister M.B. Patil has said.
Addressing a press conference in Hubballi on Saturday, Mr. Patil said that under the BJP government there was zero development and the only achievement was that they had increased loan burden on the State to ₹2.4 lakh crore.
Mr. Patil said that while Prime Minister Narendra Modi kept speaking about not tolerating corruption, his own government in Karnataka had been accused of demanding 40% commission.
