"Is Prime Minister Narendra Modi travelling abroad with his own money? " asked Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.
He was reacting to questions from scribes on the opposition's charges that the chief minister was holding party conventions with the taxpayer's money.
Siddaramaiah said that after the Nanjanagud and Gundlupet bye-polls the BJP fears losing the 2018 polls.
"Whatever be Amit Shah's strategy, BJP will not win," he asserted.
Further, the CM said that he had seen JD(S) National President H D Deve Gowda as a member of the latter's party and as a member of its opposition party. "There is nothing else left to see," he quipped.
