Speaking to reporters at Mangaluru International Airport on October 5, Saturday, he said despite the appeal for a minimum of Rs 5,000 crore  relief package for flood hit areas, the  Union Government has released just Rs 1200 crores after two years.

He also  questioned Chief Minister Yediyurappa’s statement that the  state coffers were empty. "There is no chance for it as  taxes collected get accumulated in the treasury every month," Siddaramaiah said.

He was in Mangaluru on his way to   a village near Kalasa in Moodigere taluk of Chikkamagaluru  to meet the family of a farmer who has committed suicide after not getting compensation  for flood related loss.
