Former Karnataka CM Yeddyurappa’s Befitting Reply To HDK

Former Karnataka Chief Minister Yeddyurappa’s befitting reply denied a secret meeting with Siddaramaiah.

Yeddyurappa has rejected JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy’s claim that there was a secret meeting between former Karnataka Chief Ministers Siddaramaiah and BS Yeddyurappa.

Former Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa announced on the internet media that he would not rest until the next assembly elections saw the BJP retain power in Karnataka.

He said that we are working with the aim of bringing BJP to power in the upcoming assembly elections. I have never met opposition leader Siddaramaiah personally. There’s no need for it.

I have met him only on the occasion of my birthday on February 27, 2020.

Former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy had issued a controversial statement saying BJP is targeting Yeddyurappa’s allies and close circle through IT raids.

Kumaraswamy also said Yeddyurappa met Siddaramaiah in Mysore to discuss the weakening of the ruling BJP in Karnataka.

Yediyurappa, on the other hand, without naming Kumaraswamy on social media, rubbished the claim of his meeting with Siddaramaiah.

He said that he never compromised on his ideology. His sole aim is to bring the BJP back to power in Karnataka.

Yediyurappa tweeted, “Other than my birthday on 27 February 2020, I have not personally met Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah.

I don’t need to meet like this. We are in the party which is working to bring the BJP back to power in the state.

Siddaramaiah said, “I had gone to meet Yeddyurappa on his birthday. I had not met him personally as Chief Minister or Leader of the Opposition.

I have not met him (personally) to date. We were both in the same hospital when we got infected with the coronavirus, even then we did not meet.

Talking to reporters in Kalaburagi, he claimed that Kumaraswamy used to meet him frequently when Yeddyurappa was the chief minister.
