No 5-star treatment, can sleep on road: HD Kumaraswamy on Village Visit

TIL Desk/National/Karnataka/ Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, who kick-started his village stay campaign ”Grama Vastavya 2.0” from Gurmitkal in Yadgir district on Friday, denied reports of him getting a “5-star treatment” in a village stating that he was ready to sleep on the road.

“What 5-star arrangements? Ready to sleep on the road. Want to ask the Opposition if I cannot have this basic facility, how will I work every day? A small bathroom was built. I will not be taking it back with me,” HD Kumaraswamy said during a press conference in Chandraki village.

HD Kumaraswamy’s remarks come in response to a report that he was being given a luxurious treatment at the village. Prior to his visit, renovation was done in the bathroom of a lodge he was supposed to stay.

On being asked about it, HD Kumaraswamy said: “It will help kids here. I came here on an ordinary bus. I did not come in a Volvo bus. I do not need to learn anything from BJP. I have slept in a hut as well as in a 5-star hotel. When my father was Prime Minister, I slept in Grand Kremlin Palace, Russia. I have seen everything in life.”
