JD(S)-BSP alliance will have no effect on Congress: Siddaramaiah
Raichur: Chief Minster Siddaramaiah said that the JD(S)-BSP poll alliance will have no effect on the outcome of the election as far as Congress is concerned. Both the parties don’t possess enough influence to affect the outcome, he reiterated.
“By taking my name in Parliament again and again Prime Minister Narendra Modi is raising me to the level of a national leader,” Siddaramaiah said.
He spoke at the helipad, in Raichur district where he had come to inaugurate the new Maski taluk.
PNB scam
He said that the PM remains mum when corruption happens in his party. “Is he approachable to people like us? He does not allow the media near him,” the CM commented.
The PM asks us to keep our money banks. If we do that, people like Nirav Modi will take it from us. The Prime Minister has not talked of this. “He should immediately make a statement,” Siddaramaiah demanded.
There is no connection between AICC spokesman Abhishek Singhvi and diamond merchant Nirav Modi. Singhvi is going to file a defamation case against those who made false statements in this regard. “Singhvi is not involved in any scam. BJP is making false allegations,” the CM said.
Haris expulsion
Replying to questions on expulsion of Mohammed Haris Nalpad from the Congress party for assaulting a businessman, the CM added that the law would take its course. “So what if he is an MLA’s son? A wrong is a wrong,” Siddaramaiah reacted.
