CM Yediyurappa accepts Ramesh Jarkiholi’s resignation

Bengaluru: Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa today accepted Ramesh Jarkiholi’s resignation as minister and forwarded a letter to the governor.

Jarakiholi had tendered his resignation to the chief minister after the release of a sex video CD allegedly showing him.

“The accusations levelled at me are far from the truth. This case should be investigated soon. Although I am confident of being acquitted, I am resigning as a minister over moral grounds. Please accept my resignation,” Ramesh Jarkiholi had reportedly said in the letter sent to the chief minister.

Jarkiholi’s resignation letter was delivered to the ‘Kaveri’ residence of the chief minister by his brother Balachandra Jarkiholi.
