Mangaluru, Jan 19: Union Minister DV Sadananda Gowda has accused former Chief Minister Siddarmaiah for destablising the coalition government.

Speaking to reporters in the city, he said, Congressmen are fighting the way crabs in a bucket pull each other down. Congressmen have transformed state politics into an abusive destination. "Siddaramaiah is not allowing the Chief Minister Kumaraswamy to work. He is trying to destabilize the government through his followers," he alleged.

Being the single largest party, the BJP will not keep quite when the people face injustice. Let them sacrifice the power if they are unable to govern. The MLAs who are unable to continue with the Congress must resign," DV Sadananda Gowda said.
