Bengaluru, May 6: Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday hit out the BJP and said its leaders should declare themselves “pagal ” (mad) instead of “ chowkidar ” (watchman) in the interest of the public.

Fearing electoral defeat, BJP leaders, right from Prime Minister Narendra Modi to K.S. Eshwarappa, have let their tongue loose, Mr. Siddaramaiah tweeted.

His tweet came a day after Mr. Eshwarappa made a heinous comment against Mr. Siddaramaiah. “The frustration of being on the verge of defeat is visible in everyone from Narendra Modi to Eshwarappa. For the interest of the public, it is better that BJP leaders claim themselves to be pagal instead of chowkidar ,” the Congress leader said.

Addressing a gathering in Dharwad’s Kundagol during a BJP rally on Saunday, Mr. Eshwarappa had asked, “What if Siddaramaiah’s granddaughter was raped?”

Taking to Twitter on Monday, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president Dinesh Gundu Rao said, “By asking ‘What if @siddaramaiah’s grand daughter was raped,’ @BJP4Karnataka leader K.S. Eshwarappa has revealed his inhuman side. Only a person who has lost his mental balance would make such a reference to a school-going kid. He should be locked up permanently. @PMOIndia.”
