After performing pooja at a temple here, he said those exerting pressure were being rewarded at the cost of loyal and sincere party workers. All principles and values were being thrown to winds to continue in power and this had dented the image of the party.
Chief Minister Yeddyurappa had been warned against rewarding party hoppers. The CM should have adopted a tough stand in this matter, he added.
He claimed that Operation Kamala was carried out even as the party senior leaders were opposed to it. Those in power adopted dictatorial attitude, he alleged.
Asked whether Yeddyurappa should quit now as the party’s image has taken a beating, he only said public should react to it.
