Bengaluru: Throwing Challenges to Maharashtra who often claimed that the BELOGIVAs must be part of his geography, CM Basilvaraj Bommai on Monday said he was ready to include all Panchayats, Taluk, and Kannadiga District from Maharashtra to the southern state if they passed a resolution in this matter.
CM statements come in light of the debate about border disputes and language lines in Bellagavi who have taken inappropriate turns in the last four days.
By stating that Maharashtra parties have tried to sweep the time of border disputes and again for political benefits, said Karnataka has received a report on the Mahajan Commission on the dispute.
At the same time, he said, Karnataka was ready to protect the interests of Kannadigas who lived in the border area of neighboring countries.

Bommai quoted an example of 40 grams of Panchayats in Jath Tehsil from Sangli District which had issued a resolution that they were included in Karnataka after they expressed disappointment that Maharashtra could not provide water for irrigation.
“Now, this dry land area – where Kannadigas is in the majority – has passed the resolution to be added to Karnataka.
We (Karnataka) are ready to include all these areas, except for areas where Mahajan’s report states that its status.
Quo must be maintained , “said Bommai.
He said the state was always trying to maintain a friendly relationship with Maharashtra, but it was unsuccessful in the border area, which remained tense for years after the birth of Maharashtra Ekikarna Samiti.
“The Mes used to be a strong power center, but its influence has been reduced in the Biasaavi and border disputes seem to be a way to try to get back influence.
However, it has been rejected by the district community,” he said.
On the request to ban MES, CM said he would secure a legal opinion in this matter.
CM, during his statement at Border Row, said he would talk to his colleague in Maharashtra to resolve legal issues and order in that situation because Kannadigas had been targeted at this issue.
