There is political malice behind the government’s recommendation for prosecution on the Covid scam, former Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa accused.
Speaking to the media at a private hotel in Tarangal on Saturday, he said, we have not done any scam. We have done everything within the legal framework. It is very old, they are trying to dig it up again with political malice. They are expecting that they will benefit from it. They have not benefited from it.
If any investigation is needed, let them do it. BJP is getting people’s support beyond expectations in the by-elections in three constituencies of the state. Modi’s immense influence will work. I am confident that BJP candidates will win in three out of three constituencies. There was no scandal during my tenure. There is no need to worry much about what has been given to the prosecution. We have implemented everything in the legal framework. The case has been registered and the inquiry has been granted with malicious intent. Sriramulu has not done any scam in Covid. Prosecution has given permission for political hatred. We are confident that we have handled everything honestly,” he said.
Siddaramaiah’s fear of defeat has started. If you see that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has camped here along with many of his cabinet ministers, it is becoming clear that the fear of defeat has started. And allowed a malicious prosecution of Ramulu too. He has brought the Covid scam to the fore without any other option. At that time, neither I, former minister B Sriramulu, nor anyone did anything wrong. I am going to tour here on Saturday as well. Looking at the atmosphere here, we are confident that our candidates will win 100 percent, he said.
