Digvijay Singh is leading CM Siddharamaiah’s coterie: Prasad

AICC General Secretary and Karnataka Party in-Charge Digvijay Singh is heading the coterie of Chief Minister Siddharamaiah comprising people like Dr. H.C.  Mahadevappa, alleged former Minister V. Sreenivasa Prasad, here this morning. Speaking to media persons at his Jayalakshmipuram residence, the former Union Minister, who quit the Congress,  described Mahadevappa as a slave of Siddharamaiah and added that Mahadevappa was in politics only with the blessings of the CM. Declaring that he would quit politics if he lost the bypoll to Nanjangud constituency, Prasad challenged the CM to resign if the Congress loses. Lack of a powerful candidate, the Congress has poached Kalale Keshavamurhy from JD(S) to take me on, he claimed.
