Drought vs development: Can DK Shivakumar evade the ‘SM Krishna trap’?
16 hours ago

Karnataka faces a potential drought as monsoon rainfall lags significantly behind normal levels. Chief Minister DK Shivakumar is managing this agrarian crisis, echoing his mentor SM Krishna's past struggles. Krishna's administration faced similar droughts, which opponents used to criticize his urban development focus. Shivakumar now balances Bengaluru's infrastructure growth with rural distress, a familiar political challenge. Modern drought management systems offer some advantage, but rainfall deficits remain a political concern.
