New Delhi: Mysuru-Kodagu MP Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi on Monday to discuss comprehensive development plans for the Constituency and raise key concerns affecting the region.
Wadiyar expressed concern over the increasing presence of illegal Bangladeshi migrants in Kodagu and requested prompt action from the Home Ministry to address the issue.
In a press release following the meeting, the MP stated that he had highlighted several pressing issues, particularly the extensive damage caused by recent heavy rains in Kodagu. He urged the Union Minister to release emergency relief funds under the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) to support recovery efforts.
