“People of 17 Districts have lost all their properties and are facing problems. We have tried helping them by donating Rs. 1 Crore to CM relief fund from MTB organisation and the cheque will be handed over to Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa,” Nagaraj said in a video message released by him.
A total of 2,217 villages in 86 taluks of 17 districts have been affected due to floods and rains in the State, where 1,224 relief camps have been opened giving shelter for nearly four lakh people.
The rain fury has left 48 persons dead in the State, while 16 are missing.
Yediyurappa, who took oath as the Chief Minister on July 26, will be hoisting the national flag at the main function in the state capital Bengaluru.
The Chief Minister has already indicated that a decision on Ministry expansion is likely after August 16, following his visit to Delhi to meet the party’s central leadership.
