Disgruntled MLA says Siddaramaiah instigated them to resign; Former CM replies
Bengaluru: Former Karnataka CM and senior Congress leader Siddaramaiah on Thursday hit out at disgruntled MLAs after they alleged that the former CM instigated them to resign and destabilize the coalition government.
Siddaramaiah took to twitter and lashed out at the rebel MLAs adding that it were all false allegations with ‘malafide intension’. He added “I will give them a befitting reply if they repeat the same in front of me”.
Earlier, disgruntled MLA on Thursday morning had told media reporters in Yellapur that Siddaramaiah was their leader and that he was now backing off from it. The statement caught media’s attention and was reported by several media houses.
“Rebel MLAs are trying to shift the blame on me after wide spread public backlash against them for betraying & back-stabbing both the electorate & the part” Siddaramaiah posted in another tweet.
In another tweet ending with 'Satyamev Jayate', Siddaramaiah posted "This is not the first & will not be the last but I have digested this venom to serve people with good intent".
Media houses are reporting that few rebel MLAs have claimed that I instigated them to resign & destabilize our govt. This is nothing but a false allegation with malafide intension.

Everything will be clear when the dust settles but by then they would have bitten the dust.

There were numerous baseless allegations on me even when I was @CMofKarnataka. This is not the first & will not be the last but I have digested this venom to serve people with good intent.
