BENGALURU: Congress MLA from Hebbal Byrathi Suresh has given a 2019 Mercedes-Benz car to former Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah .

Sources close to Siddaramaiah said that the car was not a gift as was done by minister KJ George.

In June 2018, George had lent a Toyota Land Cruiser to Siddaramaiah with fuel coupons for a year. George had explained that he had given the SUV to Siddaramaiah as the latter was not comfortable driving long distances in an Innova.
