“Amid crippling drought and hundreds of farmers committing suicide across Karnataka, the Congress government shamelessly prioritizes pleasing Rahul Gandhi over addressing the state’s urgent needs. “Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and his cohorts must be held accountable for unethically looting Karnataka tax payers money and state treasury to cater Congress high commands greed.
Amidst the Congress partys struggle for survival, its ministers are sparing no effort in plundering every last rupee of the state coffers.” On Monday, Karnataka Minister for Forests B. Eshwar Khandre announced the compensation to the family of deceased Ajeesh, who lost life due to elephant trampling in Wayanad, Kerala.
A tusker named ‘Makna’, which was captured at Belur in Karnataka’s Hassan district, was relocated to the Bandipur Tiger reserve in November 2023. It was radio collared last year. Two months later the elephant was sighted in the Wayanad area of Kerala, the parliamentary constituency of Rahul Gandhi.
