CM Bommai was speaking to reporters after garlanding the statue of Dr BR Ambedkar on the occasion of Constitution Day and said that the spirit of the Constitution must be felt at the village level also.
The protest comes after Bommai indulged in a war of words with Fadnavis over the border issue between the two states and called the remarks of the Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister "provocative".
"The Karnataka Chief Minister is giving his statement on border issues. It seems like Karnataka CM Bommai has been possessed for suddenly staking a claim on 40 villages in Maharashtra?" Uddhav Thackeray said.
The development of Harihar is happening due to the double-engine government. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has grown as a world leader and is dedicated to the all-around development of the country.
Bommai said the Congress government had neglected Jagalur and even the coalition government did the same. The Congress leaders had fed water to the people of Jagalur only through talks but the water did not come. However, the incumbent government he said has silently been doing work.
Karnataka CM Bommai had earlier said that the border row has become a political tool in Maharashtra, and any party in power will raise the issue for political purposes. My government is capable to protect the borders of Karnataka and has taken steps also, Bommai had said.
In a letter to Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai, Karnataka state president of AAP Prithvi Reddy demanded an all-party meeting in Karnataka to resolve the issue and requested him to allow a representative of AAP attend the meeting.
Regular water flow will be ensured to the Vani Vilasa water grid to remove the tag of 'barren Karnataka', said Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.
The government assets including commercial complexes must not only be reserved for commercial activities but also be used as government offices and for other citizen services, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said.
