Yeddyurappa prepared to fight against Yettinahole if detrimental


Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Apr 25: BJP state president, B S Yeddyurappa, said that he fully spports MP, Nalin Kumar, in his fight against Yettinahole project, if it threatens to dry up Karnataka coast and does not benefit other districts. He promised to draw the attention of the government towards the issues concerning this project.

He was speaking after discussing pros and cons of Yettinhole project with office bearers of Netravarati Rakshana Samyukta Samiti, who met him during his visit on Saturday April 23.

Prof S G Mayya drew the attention of Yeddyurappa towards the fact that Yettinahole will never be able to generate 24 tmc of water as projected in the report. He said that the project, if implemented, will have serious repercussions on the ecology of western ghats. M G Hegde and Ramachandar Bkampady gave him details about the lacunae in the project report. MP, Nalin Kumar Kateel, Samiti president, Vijay Kuamar Shetty, Rajeev Anchan, Satyajit Suratkal, Shashiraj Shetty Kolambe and others were present.

Strangely, the Samyuka Samiti, which had declared a couple of days before that the protest like the one held in the presence of chief minister, Siddaramaiah,just during his visit would be held during the visit of everyone connected with the project, failed to hold any such protest during Yeddyurappa's visit.

    All this time that is until the project commenced and progressing, he kept quiet. He did not utter a word when DK was agitating!!!
    Now he wants to become hero by "fighting". Why he has to fight. It is BJP's baby. Govt. at the Center too BJP. It has given the go ahead for this project.
    As if Center and BSY really care for Coastal area? Has he done anything when he was CM? Will he do anything if he becomes CM again?
    Karavali is only a vote bank for these Politicians and to be forgotten when election is over.
    Show these Politicians their places. Then only we can expect some attention to Karavali area.
