Mangalore, March 24: Continuing his tirade against Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa, JDS leader HD Kumaraswamy said that Karnataka has never witnessed throughout its history a more arrogant Chief Minister as him.
The former Chief Minister was addressing the media persons at an interaction programme organized by Journalists' Study Centre at Mangalore Business School here, on Thursday.
He said Yeddyurappa and his family members had benefited from private firms for awarding Upper Bhadra Lift irrigation scheme of Rs 1,032 crore and he said a total of Rs. 13 crore was taken by these private firms.
He said if BJP leaders have morality in them, they should ask Yeddyurappa to resign. Despite knowing the illegal activities of Yeddyurappa, the top BJP leaders are busy fighting against UPA at the Centre.
Rubbishing the allegation levelled against him that he has received crores of rupees as donations from the mining sector, the former Chief Minister challenged his critics to produce evidence against him. “Why did not they investigate on those allegations,?” he asked.
MLA Balakrishna was also present.
