With both Congress and BJP both claiming credit for taking up developmental projects for Mysuru, Congress spokesperson M. Lakshmana said he will be in front of BJP MP Pratap Simha’s office on June 29 for a public discussion on the contentious matter.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru on Saturday, Mr. Lakshmana said he will come with all the necessary documents to prove Congress party’s contribution to Mysuru. “I will bring a table and two chairs at noon on June 29. I will stay put in front of your office (at Jaladarshini) till you come”, he said.
Referring to Mr. Simha’s invitation to former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for a debate, Mr. Lakshmana said he was ready to come instead of the former Chief Minister. It may be recalled here that Mr. Simha had ignored a similar offer to debate by Mr. Lakshmana a few months ago.
