The Congress in Karnataka on Fridaythreatened to agitate against the "anti-people" stand of the BJP government in the state as well as the Centre, and slammed the latter for not releasing Rs 5,000 crore for flood relief in Karnataka.
"We have been demanding release of Rs 5,000 crore as an interim relief, which the union government is yet to take adecision.
That is why we are demanding either to act or toresign and go. Otherwise we are going to expose theanti-people attitude of the BJP in the floor of the House andso also in the public," Congress spokesperson V S Ugrappa toldreporters.
He slammed the union ministers "for doing nothing" even after visiting the State.
"The union government, it appears, is going to send a team. If that was the case then why Niramala Sitharaman (finance minister) visited, why Amit Shah (union home minister) visited Karnataka?
