JD(S) supremo Deve Gowda hits out at Karnataka CM for repeatedly blaming PM Modi

JD(S) patriarch H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday hit out at Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for repeatedly blaming Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government on issues concerning the State and its finances, and asked him to speak the truth.

The former Prime Minister also criticised the Congress government in the state for its alleged failure in managing the drought situation and drinking water woes in parts of the State.

“…from morning till evening you say Modi, Modi — he didn’t give anything. What should he give? What has Manmohan Singh (the then PM) given other than the Finance Commission decision? …Speak the truth,” Gowda said.
