New Delhi: Congress today targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not inviting Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to a business function in Bengaluru organised as part of German Chancellor Angela Merkel's visit to the southern state capital.
"CM Karnataka not invited in NASSCOM function attended by PM and German Chancellor in Bangalore.
