H ighlights of the speech:

*The price of milk per liter has been increased by Rs 3 to benefit the cattle rearers and farmers.

*Shoe bhagya scheme for school children was announced in Madhugiri.

*I didn’t wear sandals until I went to high school. Shoe Bhagya was implemented as I did not want children to undergo the same situation.

*The BJP cheated the people of the district by not giving adequate funds to the Yettinhole project.

*The previous BJP government did not fund the Upper Bhadra project.The central government is not agreeing to our demand that it should be declared as a national project

I will definitely look into K.N Rajanna’s demand to make Madhugiri a district.

I am assuring that we will construct a ropeway on the monolith hill in Madhugiri which is famous in Asia

If we lose Rajanna politically,it will be a huge loss to the people of Madhugiri.Rajanna has worked towards the development of the poor.

“International Acclaim for our government’s Ksheera Bhagya scheme: CM Siddaramaiah”.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that for the mental and physical fitness of the children of the State,the Ksheera Bhagya scheme has been implemented and more than 54 lakh children have nutritious food every day and it has received immense appreciation at the international level.

He was speaking after inaugurating the 10th anniversary celebration of Ksheera Bhagya organized by Karnataka Cooperative Milk Producers Federation and District Cooperative Milk Producers Union in Madhugiri.

Children can be healthy and educated only if they are mentally and physically fit.Ksheera Bhagya was implemented keeping in view the welfare of the poor and middle class children of all castes and religions.

We have provided nutritious food to lakhs of children every day for ten years.He explained that this project which is our pride has won international acclaim.

When we have designed a program that would benefit the lives of the poor and the middle class,the BJP tried to spoil the program.

He criticized Prime Minister Modi himself for lying that the state would become financially bankrupt due to our pro-poor programmes.

The Chief Minister questioned whether the country’s economy would not be damaged if Ambani and Adani were given privileges by Prime Minister Modi.
