Kushalnagar: KPCC President D.K. Shivakumar has appealed to all political parties to forgo their differences and come together to find a solution to the recurring flood situation in Kodagu district. Speaking to media yesterday in Madikeri, Congress leader said, “Kodagu is known for its brave soldiers. River Cauvery is the lifeline of crores of people in the State. In recent years, Kodagu is witnessing floods and landslides triggered by heavy and incessant rains. We need to forget our differences and come together to tackle this situation. What we need now is a permanent solution to this issue.”
“But the State Government has miserably failed to manage the situation. Last year, the Administration had promised to provide compensation to people affected by the disaster, but still they have not received any compensation. State Government has failed to effectively manage both Corona pandemic in the State as well as Kodagu disaster.”
