Disqualified Karnataka MLA Narayana Gowda on Tuesday claimed that Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa had given him Rs. 1,000 crore for the development of his Krishnarajpet constituency and the money was being spent for development works, news agency ANI reported.
“a person came to me and brought me to BS Yediyurappa’s residence at 5 am. When we entered his residence, Yediyurappa was praying. Once I entered, he urged me to sit and urged me to support him so that he can once again gain the throne,” he said while speaking to his supporters.
“I asked him to allot Rs. 700 crores for the development of Krishnarajpet constituency. He said he will give Rs. 300 crores more and will give Rs. 1,000 crores. He also provided that money afterward. Don’t you think I should support such a great person, I did it. after Yediyurappa stated we got nothing to do with disqualified MLAs,” Mr. Gowda replied.
He also claimed a former JD-S MLA, who was also disqualified, has made a statement in Mandya that “he supported the Yediyurappa government for the funds to develop his constituency.”
