Kaup, 09 March 2012: After the resignation of B.S. Yeddyurappa, D.V. Sadananda Gowda who became the Chief Minister has weakened the Lokayukta, accused former Central Minister B. Janardhana Poojary. If the Chief Minister wants to give good administration, then immediately he should appoint a honest Lokayukta like Santhosh Hegde, he said during the press conference in Kaup Rajiv Bhavana, on Thursday.
Though there is drought in half Karnataka, the ministers fight like dogs and cause issues. If the BJP high command has any moral responsibility then they should control the leaders like Yeddyurappa, or else sack them from the party, he said. In this by election the issues of State BJP government and their performances are the main issues of Congress election campaign. Congress party workers should work with enthusiasm like Rahul Gandhi, said Poojary to the party workers.
Speaking further Poojary said that, there is power struggle in dark within the state BJP and to give away the power D.V. Sadananda Gowda is not a saint, this has to be understood by Yeddyurappa. To give up the position he is not Sonia Gandhi of Congress Party. If BJP leaders carry out the corruption like this there is no survival for BJP in the state, said Poojary.
Janardhana Poojary who came for the election campaign conducted padayatre in Kaup town on Thursday evening and asked for votes. On this occasion former Minister Vasantha V. Salyan, Kaup Block Congress President Gangadhar Suvarna, congress leaders Kaup Divakara Shetty, Shreekar Suvarna, Naveen Chandra J. Shetty, Sarasu Bangera, Naveen N. Shetty, Harikrishna Bantwal, Abdul Aziz Hejmadi, Ibrahim, Sakendra Suvarna, Rajesh Rao Pangala and others were with him.
