'CM paid Rs 500 crore to BJP central leaders'

He told reporters here on Tuesday that Yeddyurappa was travelling in a private car in New Delhi to meet the party national leaders.

“There was something fishy about it. It seems to me that Yeddyurappa went to New Delhi to pay the kickback to the central leadership. Let the BJP government probe my allegations. If they are proved baseless, I will work as a servant in any BJP leader’s house.”

He said a hefty bribe was paid to the central leadership with regard to the mining scams also.
