Mysuru, Sep 15: “If anybody proves that my son is involved in sand mining, then I will hang my son,” said the chief minister Siddaramaiah with emotions on Monday, September 14.

Siddaramaiah was speaking in a function at Hosakote near Mysuru.

“Eshwarappa has been repeatedly saying that my son and minister Mahadevappa’s son are involved in sand mining. Let him prove that first” Siddaramaiah added.

Siddaramaiah also criticized the BJP leaders who attacked him during the recent Raitha Chaithanya Yathre, a pro farmer rally.

“Yeddyurappa made two farmers to get killed by bullets. The person who went to jail has come now to teach us lessons. Eshwarappa says that my and Mahadevappa’s children should be cursed. He has forgotten that he is the leader of the opposition. The person who counts money in counting machine can only talk like this.” Siddaramaiah said.

“In spite of securing more than 100 seats, BJP has failed to win the mayoral election. They are jealous now that Congress has a mayor now. We will not let them win Zilla and Gram Panchayat elections. The defeated BJP is acting funnily now.” Siddaramaiah taunted.

Siddaramaiah made singular references (‘Ninu’ instead of ‘Nivu’ in Kannada) to Yeddyurappa and Eshwarappa during his outburst. ‘Ninu’ word is hardly used in public in Kannada unless with close acquaintances or with younger ones.
