Karnataka BJP chief slams Siddarmaiah over police lathi charge at Panchamasali community's protest

Op India  

Karnataka Bharatiya Janata Party president Vijayendra Yediyurappa criticised the state government over the police lathi charge on the Lingayat Panchamasali community during their protest for reservation, calling it an example of the arrogance of the CM Siddaramaiah-led government. Vijayendra’s response came after Siddaramaiah, in a post on X, alleged that the BJP leader tried to bribe Anwar Manippady with Rs 150 crore to suppress investigations into Waqf property encroachments. He accused the BJP of turning Karnataka into its “ATM.” Meanwhile, Priyank Kharge accused PM Modi of selectively targeting the state government while ignoring allegations of corruption within his own party. “PM @narendramodi makes speeches about a non-existent Excise Department transfer scam by the Karnataka government in Maharashtra but remains silent when his own party MLAs and spokespersons accuse their state BJP president BY Vijayendra of massive corruption, even officially writing to him,” Kharge said.
