Daijiworld Media Network - Mysuru (MS)

Mysuru, Jun 13: "In the five-year rule of Modi government, the issue of farmers and unemployed youth has not been resolved. In addition, the economic situation of the country has collapsed. But I am in a position wherein I cannot say the truth," said former CM Siddaramaiah.

Siddaramaiah was speaking to the reporters in the city.

He further said, "People of the country have praised the government of Modi that has ruled the country for the last five years. But the GDP has hit an all-time low. Unemployment has increased by leaps and bounds. The rupee has devalued. But people still say 'Modi Modi'. The financial situation of the country has not improved at all. They have passed time by speeches, lies and dramas,"

"It is filled in the minds of the people of this country that Narendra Modi is the only patriot and the country is going to get salvation only through him. But the fact is that the GDP has touched its lowest. We are in a difficult situation, where we cannot even say the truth. We cannot speak truth about PM Modi and Amit Shah. We cannot question the Pulwama incident. Just see the situation we are in. Can't we question these matters? They cannot reform the economy of the country," added Siddaramaiah.

Speaking on the issue of Roshan Baig saying that he has been framed in the IMA forgery case, Siddaramaiah said, “Why he is saying that with the media? He should say this with Special Investigation Team (SIT). With regards to IMA, already SIT has been formed. It will conduct detailed investigation. So I will not say anything in public with regards to the IMA case."
