Siddaramaiah, MLA Zameer Ahmed Khan hold meeting behind closed doors in Mysuru
Mysuru: Leader of the Opposition in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah and MLA Zameer Ahmed are said to have held a confidential meeting at a private hotel in Banni Mantapa here on Friday night, allegedly in the backdrop of rumours that Telangana Chief Minister Chandrashekar Rao was planning to ensure a Congress defeat in the upcoming elections.
On learning of the meeting, reporters visited the hotel to speak to the former Karnataka Chief Minister. Siddaramaiah, however, refused to comment on the matter.
“I do not wish to react to the comments of the Telangana president,” Siddaramaiah said, adding with ire, “But why do you butt in private meetings of people? Be off!”
Zameer Ahmed, who spoke to the media on the occasion, said that he had not received any offer. “It is true that I visited Telangana, but did not receive any Rs 500-crore offer. Nor am I aware of any such deal,” he clarified.
“Telangana president of the Congress Revanth Reddy organized my meeting with the chief minister. It was only a courtesy visit,” the legislator added.
