Abide by UPA advisory: Siddaramaiah

MYSORE: The state BJP government which is in celebration mode after the Centre's rejection of the Governor's report, should abide by the strictures set by the Centre, said Siddaramaiah, Leader of Opposition.Interacting with reporters here on Wednesday, he stated that the state government's failure to follow the strong advisory based on the observations of Governor HR Bharadwaj, will put them in trouble. He explained that the Governor had sent the report on illegal mining, nepotism, favouritism, denotification and other scams by the state government.Though the Centre has rejected dismissal of the state government, it has passed strictures to be followed. He demanded the resignation of Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa and Speaker Bopaiah, on moral grounds. The apex court has dismissed the High Court judgment disqualifying 16 MLAs, and made strong observations on the actions of the Speaker and the CM, he noted.Asked whether the Congress would take part in the ensuing legislative session, Siddaramaiah replied that the Congress Legislative party will take a decision on this. Alleging that Yeddyurappa was the most corrupt Chief Minister, he said that the BJP had failed to give good governance in the last three years.Commenting on the statement of JD(S) supremo HD Deve Gowda and former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy that the Congress and BJP are faces of the same coin, he said that it was their individual opinion.Siddaramaiah said that the JD(S) and JD(U) should unite first, before former MLC Nada Gowda called for the unification of Janata Dal factions in the state.
