We resigned because of Siddaramaiah, says K Sudhakar

CHIKKABALLAPURA: Disqualified MLA from Chikkaballapura,

K Sudhakar

, criticised former chief minister and Congress Legislator Party leader Siddaramaiah for “failing to protect interests of Congress MLAs” during the coalition regime. Sudhakar said Siddaramaiah was “solely” to blame for the fall of the HD Kumaraswamyled government.

“Had Siddaramaiah listened to pleas of legislators, the situation would have been different,” Sudhakar said. “It is unfortunate that he worked overtime to get his own legislators disqualified. Most of the

disqualified MLAs

were his staunch supporters and had him in their hearts, but he prevailed on the speaker to get them disqualified. He failed to protect our interests.”
