‘BJP failed to give a single programme that builds farmers’ lives’: CM DK Shivakumar

BENGALURU: Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on Friday criticised the BJP government for not giving even a single programme that improves the lives of farmers. “Today BJP leaders are taking out a padayatra. Let them take out four more padayatras. But first, let the BJP introspect on its tenure,” he said.

The CM added that he will visit the holy Kudalasangama and offer puja at the Sangama. He further that on Saturday, he will launch ‘Praja Seve’ in a manner that would be a model for the country. “Praja Seve will be launched tomorrow, and I will listen to people’s problems throughout the day tomorrow”, D K Shivakumar said.

He further added that the Praja Seve programme is being implemented with the aim of connecting the government to the people so that they do not have to wander to government offices. He also said that a system is in the works which will let people convey their grievances to the government.

“A new working system is being formulated where the government itself goes to the doorsteps of the people to listen to their problems. A system will be introduced where all ministers and MLAs should listen to people’s problems in their respective constituencies on two Saturdays in a month,” he said. (ANI)
