He said that the State government would release the pending interest subsidy on subsidised loans provided to fishermen. Under the interest subsidy, the government bore 10 %, while the beneficiaries had to contribute the remaining 2 %. Both the fishermen and fisherwomen led tough lives, he added. It was the Congress government that started the celebrations of the Ambigara Chowdaiah Jayanti. The Ambigara Chowdaiah Development Corporation had been formed and an amount of Rs. 100 crore would be provided to it, he said. Mr. Siddaramaiah said that some criticised him as the Chief Minister for Backward Classes, Dalits and Minority communities, known by the acronym AHINDA, in Kannada. “But I am Chief Minister not just for AHINDA but also the poor in all communities. I always stand for both AHINDA and the poor, he said. The Anna Bhagya, Ksheera Bhagya, Ksheeradhare and interest free schemes had been launched to benefit all the poor people. The government would also see that land are regularised for the poor people under the 94 C and 94 CC schemes, he said. He lauded businessman G. Shankar for taking up the construction of the maternity wing at the Taluk Government Hospital in Kundapur. This wing will be run by the Taluk Government Hospital. Earlier, people were broad-minded and donated land for schools and hospitals. Such a trend was on the wane now because people had become greedy, Mr. Siddaramaiah said.
