Mangaluru: BJP State President Nalin Kumar Kateel has lashed out at Siddaramaiah for criticism of the economic relief package announced by CM Yediyurappa on Wednesday, May 6.

Speaking on the issue, Nalin Kumar Kateel said, Siddaramaiah being former CM of the state must not make such statement.

Siddaramaiah lacks common sense as he says that farmers spend Rs 50 lakh per acre growing flowers. I am wondering whether Siddaramaiah is planning to extract gold from flowers just like Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi who wants to extract gold from potatoes, he added

Kateel further said, I am saddened by the fact that even during this major crisis, Congress has resorted to base level politics rather than coming up with suggestions and ideas
