Davanagere, Oct 7: "Former CMs Siddaramaiah and H D Kumaraswamy have become mad after losing power. They do not know what they need to speak. So they blabber nonsense," said minister K S Eshwarappa.

Speaking to the scribes Eshwarappa said, "Siddaramaiah is feeling as if he has lost something. He is trying all ends up to get the position of leader of opposition. Earlier, when there was flood in the state no government has given as much relief funds as provided by BJP government. In addition to Rs 3,200 from the central government, the state government has contributed Rs 6,800 and given Rs 10,000 as compensation."

"Siddaramaiah recently said that NAREGA scheme is going to stop completely. But when he came to know that Rs 364 crore has come for this scheme, he shut his mouth. He does not have any other work other than criticizing the BJP government. But we will accept criticism of the opposition that is beneficial for the common public and also make our efforts to work in that direction," said Eshwarappa.
