💨 Abstract

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has blamed contractors for the increase in pending bills, stating that tenders were floated without budgetary provisions and work was completed. He denied taking commission for clearing bills and asked contractors not to pay bribes to officials. He also said he will pay whatever possible to clear dues, but it depends on the state's financial condition.
