Royal Criticizes Comparison of Siddaramaiah to Former Ruler
A member of the Mysore royal family disagrees with the comparison of the current Chief Minister to a former Maharaja.
He says it's not fair, especially because of things like rising prices and a lack of new projects.
He also says the government is taking credit for projects that were already planned before.
Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar criticized Yathindra Siddaramaiah's comparison of his father to Nalvadi Krishnaraja Wodeyar.
Yaduveer stated the comparison was "far-fetched" and not justifiable.
He cited inflation, price hikes, and lack of new development as evidence of the current government's shortcomings.
Yaduveer pointed out the repackaging of existing schemes and the continuation of this trend in the 2025 Budget.
He also accused the Congress administration of falsely claiming credit for the Mysuru Airport expansion project.
