Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Friday inadvertently referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as Moily (senior Congress leader M Veerappa Moily), leading to peals of laughter at the media conference.

“Youth are disappointed with Moily government. Moily only makes big speeches. But, his achievements are nothing,” he stated. He later corrected his mistake. Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah accused BJP leader B S Yeddyurappa of ‘practicing untouchability’ by having hotel-made food at a Dalit’s house recently. “Is it (eating hotel-made food at Dalit’s house) not untouchability?...He (Yeddyurappa) ate idli and dose brought from outside at a Dalit’s house. They (the BJP leaders) can’t fool people all the time...in the process they will become fools,” he told reporters.
