Bengaluru, Aug 3 (UNI) Karnataka is ablaze with political upheaval as the 'Mysuru Chalo' padayatra becomes the epicenter of a high-stakes scandal involving Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. What started as an eight-day march, launched from Kengeri today by top BJP leaders, has rapidly escalated into a dramatic confrontation with the Congress government, potentially reshaping the state's political landscape.
In a blistering attack on Siddaramaiah, BJP MP Tejasvi has accused the Chief Minister and his associates of illicitly benefiting from executive decisions, branding the case as an "open-and-shut" instance of entrenched corruption. "The allegations against Siddaramaiah and his family in the MUDA scam are deeply troubling," Tejasvi declared, intensifying the scandal’s spotlight on the Chief Minister.
Union Minister Pralhad Joshi stoked the fire further, denouncing the Congress party's long history of scandal and corruption. "The Congress party has scam and corruption in its DNA," Joshi proclaimed, linking the current allegations to a persistent pattern of misconduct. His remarks cast a long shadow over the present administration, further energizing the opposition.
