Congress conspiring against CM: C T Ravi

BJP state general secretary and MLA C T Ravi, predicting the collapse of the coalition government in Karnataka, alleged that the Congress is conspiring against Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy.

He told reporters that Congress leaders, including Siddaramaiah, M B Patil, D K Shivakumar and Parameshwar, are waiting in queue to become the Chief Minister. "The CM's post is being mocked by the coalition partners," he said.

He accused the Congress of fixing a time bomb on the seat of the Chief Minister and alleged that Congress leader Siddaramaiah and his supporters are indirectly supporting BJP in Tumakur, Hassan, Kolar, Chikkaballapura and other constituencies.

He said the BJP has the luck to form the government. "The lemons held by Minister H D Revanna will not allow any Congress leader to become the Chief Minister," he mocked.
