News Desk: Former chief minister and JDS leader HD Kumaraswamy took a dig at prime minister Narendra Modi over ignoring Karnataka floods. Kumaraswamy alleged that prime minister Narendra Modi has insulted the people of Karnataka by not paying much attention to the problems of the people caused due to the floods. He said “Prime Minister Narendra Modi has spoken to Andhra Pradesh and Telangana on the floods and resultant damage, but has not spoken to Karnataka, even by way of courtesy. It is an insult to the people of Karnataka. Revenue Minister R Ashoka visited flood-hit areas recently without paying much attention to the problems of the people”
He added “I requested Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa to depute ministers, and write to him again to take up the issue seriously. The BJP has 25 MPs in Karnataka, but considering the way they are treated by the Union government and PM Modi, the MPs need to do some introspection on what they have done for the people”
