State government should first provide drought relief to farmers: Chalawadi Narayana Swamy

Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru on Wednesday, Opposition Leader Chalawadi Narayana Swamy stated that the state government should first provide relief to farmers for drought. He questioned why ₹2,500 relief is insufficient for farmers facing severe hardship, suggesting the state should announce ₹25,000 relief per acre using the State Disaster Management Fund. Narayana Swamy also questioned the government regarding the sting operation, asking if the investigation was impartial and who was being protected.
