Mysuru: The Nanjangudu-Gundlupet by polls are turning out to be a massive mudslinging platform for the Congress and former Congressman S M Krishna.

Taking a jibe at the veteran leader, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has said that it was time SM Krishna introspected his tenure as CM of the state.

It may be recalled that SM Krishna had recently said that Siddaramaiah government lacks vision and far-sighted approach.

Responding to the same in Nanjangudu, the CM, on Tuesday said that when Krishna was the CM 30 ministers were defeated and the 140 member government came down to 65 member government.

“I am not questioning him because he is a senior leader. But, when he was in power, 30 ministers were defeated. He must look back at his tenure and decide if he had that vision what he is now talking about,” said the CM.
