Following allegations by a section of farmers in certain parts of the state that their lands were marked as Waqf properties, he reiterated that none of them will be evicted, and notices issued to them will be withdrawn.
“BJP is doing politics. Notices were issued during their (BJP) tenure too, what do they have to say about it? During BJP’s tenure over 200 notices were given. One should not practice such dual politics,” Siddaramaiah said.
Speaking to reporters here, the CM said, “I have already said that the notices will be withdrawn, where is the issue? In case the notices are issued they will be withdrawn and no one will be evicted, where is the issue?” “Whichever district it is…They (BJP) had also given notices in several districts. Why did they give? Why are they doing such politics? In case notices were served by our government, they will be withdrawn and no farmers will not be evicted….the protest they have planned on November 4 is for politics keeping in mind by-polls in three segments and Maharashtra elections,” he added.
