Land to JSW: Kumaraswamy calls out BJP’s ‘double standards’
“The BJP has a culture of opposing when in the Opposition and silently doing the opposite when it comes to power. The BJP had made baseless accusations against my government,” Mr. Kumaraswamy tweeted.
Taking exception to the State authorities transferring 3,677 acres to JSW Steel Ltd., former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on Tuesday pointed out that the identical BJP had accused the earlier coalition authorities of taking kickbacks for asserting the identical factor.
“The BJP has a culture of opposing when in the Opposition and silently doing the opposite when it comes to power. The BJP had made baseless accusations against my government,” Mr. Kumaraswamy tweeted.
He pointed out that present Minister Anand Singh, who was then a Congress legislator, had accused JSW “East India Company” and written to the Home Ministry too in opposition to it. The JD(S) chief sought to know the way Mr. Singh was now in favour of JSW. He additionally questioned what Congress chief H.K. Patil, who had launched paperwork and papers in opposition to the switch of land to JSW, was doing now.
The Home Minister, he stated, has stated that he was not conscious of the value arrived at per acre for the sale of land. “Is this believable?” Mr. Kumaraswamy requested.
