Congress General Secretary of Media and Communications Lavanya Ballal Jain has come to Siddaramaiah's defense. "What’s appalling in seeking help for fellow Indians, Kannadigas stuck in Khartoum? Siddaramaiah avru is being a responsible elected representative, you are being churlish. We need details, not your little girl outrage about rescue operations," she has said.
