Refusing to comment on the ongoing war of words between JD(S) leader and former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy and Sumalatha Ambareesh, MP, over illegal mining in Mandya, Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa asked them to avoid a tussle for the sake of the district’s development. “They [Mr. Kumaraswamy and Ms. Sumalatha] need not lock horns like this. They should learn to live like siblings for the sake of the district’s development. I am satisfied that the M.H. Ambareesh memorial project got the government nod,” he said in his brief interaction with mediapersons in Kalaburagi on Saturday. Earlier in the day, Mines and Geology Minister Murugesh Nirani dismissed the allegations of illegal mining at Baby Betta in Mandya district and expressed his government’s readiness to order for a probe if Ms. Sumalatha would produce some substantial evidence.More Related News
