Bengaluru: Competent Lokayukta would have jailed many from Siddu govt- Yeddy


Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (SP)

Bengaluru, May 17: State BJP president, B S Yeddyurappa, feels that a number of corrupt cases with which Siddaramaiah-led state cabinet is involved would have come into the open and several members of the cabinet would have been behind the bars if the state had a strong and assertive Lokayukta.

In a strong retort to Siddaramaiah's statement that neither he nor his cabinet colleagues are facing any charge sheet, and his assertion that people who had been jailed in the past have lost the moral right to speak about him and his government, Yeddyurappa said the statement of the CM is worthless. He criticized the chief minister of making it a habit to speak lightly of others.

Addressing a press conference at the BJP office here on Tuesday May 16, Yeddyurappa stated that credit for weakening the Lokayukta institution that had a strong presence in Karnataka in the past goes to the current chief minister. "If the Lokayukta was functioning properly, the deeds of the government would have been laid bare by now. But, in order to conceal his corrupt practice, Siddaramaiah destroyed that institution," he reasoned.

He cited excamples of irregularities connected with Matrix Imaging Solutions Pvt Ltd owned by CM's son, Yathindra, corruption in rural development and panchayat raj department, water resources department, PWD etc. He said that on account of corruption, some have been forced to resign. Yeddyurappa lamented the fact that many have escaped from getting incarcerated because of the fact that the Lokayukta is not strong now.

He also gave out facts and figures to compare the grants released by his government and the current one to various sectors. He stated that except a couple of departments, in all departments, BJP government had given more grant in comparison to the present government.

    I quote from the Times of India Epaper:
    Publication: The Times Of India Mumbai; Date: Oct 16, 2011; Section: Front Page; Page: 3

    The BJP strongman who built the party into a formidable force in Karnataka and formed its first government in the south found himself to be undertrial No. 10462 in Bangalore’s Parappana Agrahara Central Jail after a judge remanded him to judicial custody for a week.

    Unquote.

    YEDDY BEING A KAIDI NUMBER 10462 HAS NO RIGHT TO MAKE FOREFINGER AT SIDDHARAMAIAH'S GOVERNMENT.

    YEDDY IS FIGHTING A LOOSING BATTLE.

    Allegation was yeddys sons education institution received donations for denotification. I think they were all made up stories . As a cm they have authority to denotify land if application comes to his table.
    Now tell me why current cm got hublot watch for what favour. What happened to his sons diagnostic centre near to one famous government hospital. Why government doesn't provide diagnostic centre of its own to government hospital?

    You mean to say, opposition leaders of congress were raided by the CBI was a political trick and the congress only in Karnataka were raided by the IT officials was a political tricks from the cow government, say so why do you hesitate to specify the grave loop holes of feku maharaaja.

    Moreover where is 15 lakhs promised to every poor Indian citizens.
    Yeddy was taken into the custody by the order of the Judge, not the lawyers.

    Dear sri_elder, Karkala, The cow governor of Gujarat is a remote control acting now in Karnataka against the Honorable Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.

    IT RAIDS ARE ON GOING PROCESS ONLY FOR OPPOSITION AND TO SHOW HAATI KA DAANT ONE OR TWO BJP MEN WILL BE RAIDED FOR NAME SAKE.

    FEKU AND DAAKU BUSINESS IS ON GOING PROCESS CONGRESS MUKTH BHARAT.

    CONGRESS MUKTH/OPPOSITION MUKTH BHARAT IS NOT A DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA.

    CONCERNING TO YEDDY,

    HE MADE KARNATAKA THE MOST CORRUPT STATE DURING HIS PERIOD. HE MUST GO TO JAIL
