DPR preparation is no big deal, says MP Pratap Simha

March 10, 2023

Mysore/Mysuru: Addressing a press conference at the Mysuru BJP Office this noon, MP Pratap Simha ridiculed the claim of the Congress that it was the brain behind the project and said, “The Congress party has come for a jolly ride on the Expressway and they are opening their mouth now as the NDA Government led by PM Modi has built a world-class Expressway,” he said.

 On the claims of the Congress that the UPA Government and the Siddharamaiah Government prepared the Detailed Project Report (DPR), Simha said, “There is a department called National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to prepare the DPR and no MLA, CM or PM will have to give permission. It is an automatic process and a departmental routine work depending on the Passenger Car Unit (PCU),” he said.

“What is important is the flawless implementation of the Detailed Project Report and release of funds in a timely manner and the completion of the project. Today, every politician on the Mysuru-Bengaluru belt wants to claim credit for the Expressway. Where were they from the date of the project start to the end date and people are not fools. They have visibility on who has done what,” the MP said.

When asked about the incomplete works, the Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha said that, “Several elected representatives had demanded underpasses at Naganahalli, Boodanuru, Pandavapura, Mathikere, Shettahalli, and at Yeliyur Arch in Mandya district. We have added them to the main project work and as such they are pending. All works will be subsequently completed.”

    What a scoundrel this MP Simha is! Why can’t he for a start apologise for the bundles of crores of Rupee notes that was found in the property belonged to the family of the BJP MLA? That BJP MLA may have said he was not aware of it, but surely n one gives so much money for his son, unless they wanted this MLA to get something illegal done.
    Narendra Modi should be ashamed if he comes and boasts about Tech India and that kind of bull shit, having aware of this bundles of Rupee notes case-certainly he knows about it.
    As for the DPR, we have seen them reported saying how good a bridge is and how well it was constructed etc..only to see it collapsing just a few years later. This is corrupt India. BJP is the most corrupt party today, replacing Congress’s reputation for corruption. Modi’s 10% commission accusation of Congress government of Karnataka is replaced with his BJP government with 40% commission government.

    Knowing India, which I visited a few years ago, the politicians who claim and counter clain should wait until this Highway becomes functional, and then they will see the usual Indian disease-congestion, corruption in toll gates fees, accidents and finally the pot holes and road detrioration.
    Then this BJP person will simply melt away!
