Accusing the BJP-led Karnataka government of corruption, former Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah has sought the resignation of state Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa. Siddaramaiah has alleged that the Chief Minister's son, son-in-law, and his grandson had allegedly demanded a bribe of crores of rupees from the municipal development agency BDA.
The accusation comes after the sting operation of a Kannada TV channel came out. Siddaramaiah alleged that, 'Chief Minister Yediyurappa and his family demanded a bribe of Rs 12 crore in the Rs 666 crore BDA project.'
It is reported that Super CM @BYVijayendra had demanded ₹12 Cr to issue work order for a BDA work worth 666 Cr. It was mediated by an IAS officer & the owner of a hotel. The contractor is said to have given the amount to hotel owner.
