Shivamogga: “I will recommend the Central government to make a change over of the current ESIS (Employment State Insurance Scheme) to ESIC (Employees’ State Insurance Corporation) and make the Shivamogga constituency a model constituency”, said Bharatiya Janata Party state president B S Yeddyurappa, here on Sunday, February 3.
He participated in the Bhoomi Pooja ritual of a 100-bed ESI hospital and said, “As 80 percent of the fund for this project was from the Centre it would be appropriate to change over to ESIC.”
MP B Y Raghavendra, MLA K S Eshwarappa, BJP district president S Rudre Gowda and others were present.
