Karnataka CM promises Rs 25 cr grant to MLAs for road work in all constituencies
To address concerns surrounding road development that were raised by several legislators at a recent party meeting, Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has promised MLAs a grant of Rs 25 crore for the implementation of road projects in each Assembly constituency.
“CM Yediyurappa has assured MLAs that he would try to grant Rs 25 crore towards the development of roads in each of the Assembly constituencies of the state,” Deputy CM Govind M Karjol told reporters in Bengaluru.
He added that MLAs of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), who took part in a two-day interaction with the chief minister recently, had voiced the need for additional funds to revive infrastructure that was majorly hit by the recent rains and floods in the state.
