Bengaluru: Former chief minister Siddaramaiah Monday alleged BJP was offering Rs 50 crore each to Congress MLAs as part of its bid to topple the JDS-Congress government in Karnataka, but asserted none of them would fall for it.
Separately, two ministers in the H D Kumaraswamy cabinet alleged BJP was still making attempts to poach Congress and JDS MLAs while claiming that a few saffron party legislators were in touch with the coalition partners. Rejecting Siddaramaiah’s claim, BJP hit back saying the coalition government should focus on administration of the state instead of hurling charges.
