BJP's Amit Malviya criticised Congress-led Karnataka government after EaseMyTrip's co-founder Prashant Pitti announced that he'd commit ₹1 crore to identify choke-points in Bengaluru to ease traffic issues. Malviya said, "Unicorn start-up founders have had to step in." "If CM Siddaramiah has even a shred of shame, he should apologise. Learn from Karnataka...Never vote for Congress. Ever," he said.
