Former Chief Minister B.S.Yeddyurappa, who has accused Chief Minister Siddharamaiah of paying Rs.1,000 crore to the Congress High Command to continue in office should first come out clean on corruption charges against him, said Chamarajanagar MP R. Dhurvanarayan here yesterday.
Addressing a press conference at Jaladarshini on Hunsur Road, he defended the decision of the Congress to field Kala Keshavamurthy against V. Sreenivasa Prasad in the upcoming bypolls to Nanjangud Constituency, saying that “when BJP can field a Congress deserter like Sreenivasa Prasad, what is wrong in Congress fielding an experienced, mature and popular politician who is a JD(S) senior leader”.
