Karnataka’s Chief Minister Siddaramaiah rebuts Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s allegation of delaying drought relief aid submission, asserting that the state had submitted its memorandum thrice by October 2023. Siddaramaiah recalls meetings with Prime Minister Modi and Shah seeking aid, with no response despite promises. He questions Shah’s moral authority to seek votes without releasing aid and pledges to resign if proven wrong. Documents submitted to the Supreme Court support Karnataka’s claims. The delay in releasing aid amid farmers’ plight prompts Siddaramaiah to urge people to hold BJP accountable.
