HASSAN: Coming down heavily on Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for airing bogus statements and false statistics about progress, state BJP president B S Yeddyurappa said that the former had swindled crores of rupees on the guise of schemes and the programmes.
Addressing a public rally in Alur of Sakleshpur taluk, he said that Siddaramaiah has achieved nothing but is posing as a big leader.He added that the CM's bogus schemes and programmes have been criticised by his own party leaders and different sections of people as they have not helped the beneficiaries.
Predicting defeat for Siddaramaiah in both Chamundeshwari and Varuna assembly constituencies, he said that Siddaramaiah is contesting from two constituencies as he is afraid of being defeated. He went on to say that being the chief minister, Siddaramaiah is yet to learn how to respect politicians including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
