Bangalore, 7/11: Calling the Congress the ‘Gangotri’ of corruption, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai has said that the grand old party has laid the groundwork for massive corruption in the state.
“Former chief minister Siddaramaiah’s statements are delusive. Whatever he says has been proven false. He said that Yediyurappa will not become the chief minister and that the BJP disproved all of his expectations. When Congress was in power, it implemented unfavourable policies. Hence, voters rejected Congress,” he told reporters before attending the Janasankalpa Yatra in Kaup.
“AICC president Mallikarjuna Kharge should understand that his party is a failure. Congress should be aware of the extent of corruption during its tenure. Congress is synonymous with corruption,” the CM said.
