A BJP MLA has criticized the state government's rehabilitation efforts, questioning the delay in granting land to families displaced by the Sharavati Project over six decades ago. He contrasted this with the swift provision of housing for those who allegedly encroached on land in Kogilu, Bengaluru, suggesting political motivations and favoritism towards migrants for electoral gain. The MLA also demanded the arrest of a Congress MLA and gunmen following a worker's death in Ballari clashes.
