Appoint untainted person as BJP’s CM candidate: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah recently challenged BJP's national leadership and Prime Minister Modi to appoint "an untainted person" as the BJP's chief ministerial candidate.
"I am glad PM @narendramodi is talking about corruption. I now invite him to #WalktheTalk . For a start can you 1. Appoint Lok Pal 2. Investigate #JudgeLoya 's death 3. Investigate the astronomical rise of #Jayshah 4. Appoint an untainted person as your CM candidate?," Siddaramaiah tweeted.
Dear Mr. #10PercentCM @siddaramaiah, I am equally glad that you have started this discussion. Before we head up North to Delhi, why don't you answer a few questions here: Why did you quash all the powers of #Lokayukta and make it a toothless body? #Dare2Answer," B.S. Yeddyurappa tweeted.
Yeddyurappa also raised Dy SP M K Ganapathy suicide case. Ganapathy had allegedly committed suicide last year accusing the then Home Minister George and two other senior IPS officers of harassing him. The state CID had given a clean chit to George and the two officials. But, the Supreme Court later ordered a CBI probe, following which a case was registered against George and the two IPS officers.
"Let me remind you of your 70 Lakh Hublot watch, which is believed to have been accepted as an official favor from a Biz-man in exchange for you approving projects violating all rules" Yeddyurappa tweeted.
