R Ashoka dubs CM, DyCM's Bengaluru tour over monsoon preparations as 'photo shoot'


Bengaluru, May 23 (IANS): Leader of the Opposition R Ashoka dubbed Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar's city round as a photo shoot for the Chief Minister and his deputy.

"There is no use in travelling across the city in an AC bus and posing before the media now," he said.

"The city rounds should have been taken up well before the start of the rainy season. It should have been done a month ago. The zone-wise meetings should have been held and directions should have been issued regarding precautionary measures. Later, they should have ensured that steps were taken. Instead, city rounds are taken up when rains have started and everything is already a mess," he added.

Earlier in the day Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar undertook a tour of the city on Wednesday ahead of the monsoons and directed the authorities concerned to ensure preventive measures ahead of the rainy season to avoid any untoward incidents.
