Kalyana Karnataka Neglected in Winter Session, Claims MLC Namoshi
Kalaburagi, December 26, 2025 – Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) Shashil Namoshi has sharply criticized the Karnataka government for allegedly sidelining crucial issues affecting the Kalyana Karnataka region during the recent Winter Session held in Belagavi.
Speaking at a press conference in Kalaburagi on Friday, Mr. Namoshi asserted that despite the session being ostensibly focused on addressing the concerns of North Karnataka, the Kalyana Karnataka region, grappling with poverty, inadequate infrastructure, and shortcomings in education and irrigation, received scant attention.
“The session was projected as a platform to address the needs of North Karnataka, but budgetary allocations and discussions predominantly centered on Belagavi and Hubballi,” Mr. Namoshi stated.
He further accused the state government of failing to adequately implement the 8% reservation mandate under Article 371(J) for candidates from Kalyana Karnataka in state-level recruitment. “Posts specifically earmarked for the Kalyana Karnataka region are being wrongly classified as backlog vacancies and then diverted to the general category. This is a grave injustice and a deliberate conspiracy against the youth of this region,” he declared.
Adding to his criticism, Mr. Namoshi highlighted alleged discrimination faced by government employees from Kalyana Karnataka in promotions, claiming that the roster system is not being followed according to established rules. He called on the government to address these grievances immediately and ensure equitable treatment for the region.
