Accusing the BJP of misleading the public by stating that the Opposition was behind the allegations made by Karnataka State Contractors’ Association president D. Kempanna, Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah said that attempts were being made to break the association instead of addressing the issues of contractors.
In a statement, Mr. Siddaramaiah the former Chief Minister said that if those who run the government knew law, they would not have accused Mr. Kempanna of such things. “Many, including Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, have been asking why Mr. Kempanna met me. He met me along with a delegation from the association. The association representatives had met the Chief Minister too. The association has now accused that the commission in BBMP for civil works has gone up from 40% to 50%,” he said.
