Bengaluru: Congress demands PM Modi to probe alleged poaching attempt by BJP leaders

Daijiworld Media Network – Bengaluru (DC)

Bengaluru, May 20: A day after BJP's B S Yeddyurappa resigned as the chief minister only 55 hours after taking oath, the Congress on Sunday May 20 asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to probe all BJP leaders who allegedly tried to bribe the Congress and JD(S) MLAs in the wake of the floor test in Karnataka assembly.

Addressing a press meet on May 20, Congress spokesperson Jaiveer Shergill, said, "Prime Minister Narendra Modi should prove to nation his commitment to fight against corruption. (He should) launch a probe against those who called Congress and JD(S) MLAs, and offered bribe to break the rock-solid coalition.

"We hope Prime Minister orders probe into corruption which their MLAs were indulging in," he added.

Congress president Rahul Gandhi too had launched fresh salvo against PM Modi and the BJP for 'encouraging corruption'. "Yeddyurappa’s resignation as Karnataka chief minister is befitting in the wake of BJP leaders rampantly indulging in corruption. You've seen openly how the PM directly authorized purchasing of MLAs in Karnataka. So the idea that PM spreads in the country that he is fighting corruption, is a blatant lie. He is corruption. BJP has been attacking every institution of democracy. I am proud that opposition stood together and defeated the BJP (in Karnataka) and we will continue to do so," Gandhi had said on Saturday, accusing the BJP strongman of allowing the party to use money power to buy out Congress and JD(S) MLAs.

He also said that Yeddyurappa's decision to resign even before the floor-test showed just why 'truth matters above everything else'. "Did you notice that after the entire exercise in Karnataka Vidhan Sabha, the BJP legislators and speaker chose to leave the house before the national anthem? It shows they can disrespect any institution if in power," he said.

Meanwhile JD(S) leader Danish Ali has hinted about Congress-JD(S) alliance during Lok Sabha elections too. "The alliance of Congress and JD(S) will be "really long". You will see the alliance grow stronger in the Lok Sabha elections too," he said.

Do not talk about ethics. If they want to form a ethical government and has guts let them have a floor test through secret voting. Is it ethical to have MLA's as hostages and herd them from hotel to hotel. Are we heading towards countries like Yemen & Iraq?

Even our courts need to come heavily on those parties and persons who indulge in poaching which is a scar to our democracy and constitution.

BJP is becoming a party of Moral Bankcruptcy. They tried to hijacked the popular will of the people and install their Govts through the back door in Goa, Megalaya, Mizoram and Bihar.

What the country witnessed in Karnataka was Shameful. The Governor virtually behaving like a puppet of the BJP. The hurried swearing in of Yerrurappa and giving him 15 days to indulge in Trading of MLA's and the crude attempts at luring some of the MLA's through financial inducements and Ministral berths was most shamefull. Can the PM by maintaining a silence on these issues absolve himself of his involvement and these shameful happenings.

When Largest party "without" majority in the house is invited to form Government, it is but obvious that some of the elected MLAs in the other camp will be contacted for support. What is so scandalous about it?
HDK and HDG took whatever was coming their way and Congress offered to buyout JDS with the CM post. JDS has effectively sold themselves to Congress which enjoys double strength compared to Congress and independent strength is way insignificant for a wiggle room. For a JDS led Government to survive, soon HDK will have to start dancing to the favorite Italian opera tune. And then you have Revanna who is no less a hot potato. While all this is on, do not expect BJP to be a mute spectator.

Congress is world no.1 in corruption!
I agree for your Comment Congress is Corrupt But not No. 1 in the world, i ask some question Why till not Demonetisation Calculation Not done. as per report More than 90% 1000 & 500 Rs currency is recovered. How Readdy Brother Spend 500Cr for his Daughter Marriage? Before Demonetisation BJP bought so many properties in India, How BJP got Money to Bribe MLA's in Karnataka. How Mr. Amitha Sha's son Mr. Jay Sha's wealth increased for 7,000 to 8,000 Cr. Why they made Raffel Deal? they came power through in the Name of Hindutva but Hindu's get any benifit any good facilities like other country? BJP is telling India is growing but we are fool our economy is going down. Rupees getting weak in world Market. one thing we should know before Modi only India is developed. what Modi is talking about Digital India 10 years Back we have digitalisation system in india. we are able to produce small pin to Air craft. please all parties are corrupt. don't blame only Congress. we need Educated Minister just take BJP rule State you will come to know how many uneducated become Minister. our Prime Minister Cannot speak good english in international Debate. Our Finance Mister he don't know Economy He is A Lawyer what we can expect from him. BJP is condemning that Cong had dividing policy in religion, i agree but What BJP is doing? till today in Hindu religion so many sub caste they don't have some rights before upper cast, Dalit's are suffering uper cast have a priority and lower cast they don't have any priority then they are telling this Hindu Nation in Hindu Nation Hindu's don't have rights to speak. Our Prime Minister He is giving Big Big Speech Sab Ke Sab ka Vikas he don't have a respect to Muslim's and Christian in India. they are not citizen's of India? before making comments what BJP is doing good. when citizen of country is living peacefully it s called development.

Why should Modi should respond on some one daughter or sons marriage?
Nidduramaih was in power for 5 years, could have confiscated all property of Reddy? why they have not done?
Marriage wad conducted at palace ground right at heart of Bangalore, Stone s throw from Kharge/DKs/Moily house.
Police would have raided!
Why they didn't act!

In Goa BJP did similar act to claim power. Union Minister Arun Jaitley who defended for BJP lost both kidneys and now on life support on donor kidney. Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar suffering from cancer now in treatment in United States.

Union Minister Sushma Swaraj is already lost kidneys who in the past adopted by Bellary Reddy brothers as their children's is warning for Mr. Yeddyurappa and BJP God's action are silent without sound.

It should be well reminder for BJP party president who are already cursed by 'Dharmasthala' for Yeddy and 'Tirumala' for Reddy brothers don't play foul play and work for the betterment of the Kannadigas.

Do not bring sickness in to politics, sickness will come for many reasons but do not link it only to politics. if you are not corrupt you cannot become politician, it is simple as that.

However as a human being we all will have to pay for the deadly blunder created in our life and others life as well but if you are in a higher position where you lead the country but cheat the whole nation by misleading them or by terrorizing them then you will have different punishment waiting for you, all the dictators and their Chela's went trough those punishment.

..i think SC fell into Congress high drama..SC should have thought that MLAs might have taken locked up against their will..they have right to act/ choose as per their consciousnesses..they have to answer their voters, they should have allowed to speak to their people.. but SC totally mislead and court denied the basic right/freedom to MLAs evethough there is anti defection law.. Horse trading is reality(Offering CM post to JDS is trading), you cant mere speculate or get trapped in fake audio tapes and deny basic human rights of an individual MLA..Horse trade can happen any where between 5 years, SC cant prevent it..

For the first time I am seeing this Jaiveer Shergill in the news !

Democracy is already killed as there is no difference between Yeddy buying MLAs and Congress buying JDS.

Only difference is Yeddy’s deal is in cash and Congress’s deal is in kind.
But both amounts to corruption !

These kind of dirty tricks was the very thing that is the essence of your party. Remeber your ancestor the great Nehru - he was also selected by not considering the actual winner who was supposed to be the First Prime minister of our country.

All Thanks to that wrong decision we are still facing the problem till date!!

If BJP buys 10 or 11 MLAs for support than its called "Horse Trading"
And Congress buyed the whole JDS by offering CM post as well as 17 cabinet berths and its called as DEMOCRACY!!!

Look at these comments. Question is if only bjp does is incorrect. So many instances in the past where single largest party has been invited. Why this cry about democracy win etc. there is absolutely no value system neither any sense of ethics in the jds and congress combine. So why create noise when bjp tried to form government. Kumaraswamy has been purchased by congress and that is corrupt as well. So let’s not act saint that one party is only doing great in democracy. My foot bloody there is no democracy being withheld by sick liar party
