Bengaluru: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition in Karnataka Assembly Siddaramaiah asserted that a ‘Remote Control Govt’ was governing the state and party’s national general secretary BL Santhosh was calling the shots even when BS Yediyurappa is the CM of the state.
“It is now an era of ‘Remote Control Govt’ in our state. @nalinkateel dances of @blsanthosh presses the button”. Siddaramaiah tweeted from his official twitter handle on Friday evening.
The former CM also noted that although BS Yediyurappa is the CM of the state, he is being treated as an ‘unwanted kid’ by his party.
It is now an era of 'Remote Control Govt' in our state. @nalinkateel dances if @blsanthosh presses the button.

Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
