Obscene, shameful: BJP slams Congress after Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah takes luxury jet to Delhi to seek drought aid

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched a scathing attack on Karnataka Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah and state minister Zameer Ahmed Khan for doing “photo shoots and splurging in VVIP planes at the cost of taxpayer money” when their party is asking for donations and the state facing a drought-like situation.

Karnataka Congress minister BZ Zameer Khan posted a video of himself along with CM Siddaramaiah on board a private jet posing at different spots inside the aircraft.

BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla posted a video message on X, formerly Twitter, to tear into Congress party and said, “On the one hand Karnataka is reeling under the drought and the Chief Minister of the state is asking the Centre for drought relief fund… We see the ministers of the Karnataka government doing photo shoots and splurging in VVIP planes and jet planes at the cost of taxpayer money along with the chief minister.”

“This is obscene, shameful, and it only shows that Congress’ mindset is to use any state it gets power in as an ATM. They did that in Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan. Now it has turned to Karnataka and Telangana,” Poonawalla said.

“ATM is the right word for the state governments that become captive of Congress party,” he added.

For Congress
Karnataka is just an ATM
VVIP culture of Congress
