Bengaluru south district BJP president N R Ramesh on Monday alleged that leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah spent whopping sum of Rs 200 cr to serve meal and snacks to his guests in Vidhana Soudha during his five year tenure as chief minister between 2013-18.

Addressing press conference here, Ramesh said that even if Siddarmaiah presumed to have worked on all days of five-year term, it means that he spent Rs 11 lakh per day.

“Did he feed gold biscuits to his guests?  This is clear case of loot and squandering of public money,” he said. He dared Siddaramaiah to account for the expenditure in public.
