Mysore/Mysuru: Even as the Congress is determined to go on with its planned 10-day ‘ Mekedatu Padayatra ’ starting from Jan. 9, JD(S) MLC Marithibbegowda has appealed the Congress to defer its padayatra at least until the COVID pandemic, which is witnessing a sudden spurt in the past few days, shows signs of abating. In a press statement, Marithibbegowda said that the Mekedatu project will help both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu in distress situations.
Maintaining that the project is a very important one for Karnataka, he said that the project has reached a level after persistent demands and agitations.
