Javadekar slams Kumaraswamy’s claims

Bengaluru: Potential Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy’s claim that the BJP was offering a sum of 100 crores to the JD(S) MLAs to lure them to their side has received quite an outrage. One of the responses came from Union Minister Prakash Javadekar who outrightly dismissed the claims as false and “imaginary”.

Outgoing Chief Minister Siddaramaiah accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of indulging in horse-trading, on account of Kumaraswamy’s allegations. Siddaramaiah said that the Congress-JD(S) coalition will generate 117 MLAs, because of which the Governor will give them the permission to form the government.
