Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has issued a stern warning to the police officials against colluding with the ruling party.
Addressing the public meeting at Gundlupet before the start of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra, Mr. Siddaramaiah took serious exception to the tearing and disfiguring of the posters put up by the Congress workers to welcome Mr. Gandhi. Though he had spoken to the police, such misdeeds were continuing, he complained.
He claimed that the government in Karnataka will change after six months and the Congress will return to power. “If you join hands with them, you will be taught a befitting lesson”, Mr Siddaramaiah told the police officials. However, he said his warning does not apply to all the police officials, but only to the ones, who collude with the ruling BJP.
