Kannada actor and former social media head of the AICC, Ramya, expressed that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah would be compassionate towards Devanahalli farmers who are demanding shelving of the process of acquisition of their land for the Aerospace Park.
In a social media post, she cited a report by The Hindu on how the landlords in Devanahalli taluk had turned out to be labourers after their lands were acquired and said, “Hope Chief Minister Siddaramaiah avaru will show the farmers some compassion and do them good.”
She also said that such a situation was not confined to Karnataka and farmers everywhere were facing similar plight. “This story is not just of the farmers here in Karnataka. It’s the same all over the country – while industries create jobs, we need to ensure the livelihoods of farmers are also taken care of,” she said.
