Mysuru: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Sunday said that the BJP leaders had no moral right to ask the government to hand over the probe into the Ballari clash to the CBI.

He told reporters here: "During their tenure, BJP did not entrust any case to CBI, whenever we demanded. As CM, I have transferred eight cases to CBI. Let them mention one case they have given to CBI for probe". He said the recent BJP rally in Ballari was politically motivated.
