Karnataka BJP criticised the Siddaramaiah-led government over the waterlogging in Bengaluru due to heavy rain. "Congress government and Siddaramaiah are sleeping...Many farmers lost their crops but no action has been taken," Karnataka LoP R Ashoka said. "They have to release at least ₹5,000 crores for flood and at least ₹1,000 crores for Bengaluru otherwise nothing will happen," he added.
