JD(S) leader and former CM H.D. Kumaraswamy had questioned the ruling BJP to clarify whether the announcement regarding Foxconn by the Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai was a publicity stunt? Or, whether the MoU was signed at all?
On social media, Kumaraswamy claimed that the Karnataka BJP government has a policy of maximum publicity and a policy of zero results. This is their goal and statement. The government is busy with commercials and does not care about people’s welfare, development and job creation.
“Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and two other ministers got free publicity on Friday by saying that iPhone maker Foxconn of Taiwan had come to the state for investment. They held signed letters in their hands stating that the MoU had been signed and presented themselves to the media,” Kumaraswamy said.
Earlier, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said the MoU with Foxconn is a major boost to India’s Atma Nirbhar Bharat ambitions and a testament to Karnataka’s success in attracting investment to the state in the electronics manufacturing and assembly segment.
