Speaking to presspersons here, Mr. Poojary said that if Mr. Ratnakar does not resign on his own, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah should expel him from Cabinet as the question paper leak has dented the image of the Congress government to a large extent.

Rebuffing Bharatiya Janata Party's attacks on the Congress, Mr. Poojary said that question paper leaks had been happening since 2001 and it had happened in 2012 when BJP's Vishweshwar Hegde Kageri was the Education Minister. Mr. Kageri did not resign then. Mr. Poojary said that the question paper leak, that too for the second time, has cast an extra burden on students and parents, who are worried about the future of their wards. If Mr. Ratnakar has any sense of responsibility, he should resign. Suspension of 40 officials of the PU Department is of no use as the same officials would be back after some time in the same posts, Mr. Poojary said.

Training his guns on the Criminal Investigation Department which is investigating the question paper leak on March 21, Mr. Poojary asked what the investigating agency had been doing since 10 days. Responding to Home Minister G. Parameshwara's reported statement that investigation cannot be completed in one day, Mr. Poojary retorted: “it is not just one day, but 10 days have passed and the investigating agency has not even submitted an interim report.”

Mr.Poojary seems like very free now .. no job ... just to interfere in all the matters for useless purpose.

'BJP had arranged chartered planes to move Cong MLAs to Bengaluru'

Agencies

March 10,2020

Bhopal, Mar 10: Senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh on Tuesday parried questions on the exact number of MLAs supporting the party in Madhya Pradesh amid a political crisis triggered by the resignation of Jyotiraditya Scindia and 14 MLAs loyal to him.

Repeating his allegation that the BJP was trying to destabilise the Congress-led government, Singh told reporters that the BJP had arranged three chartered planes for Bengaluru on Monday to fly out some MLAs loyal to Scindia.

"We want to know why Bengaluru is used every time to destabilise governments?" he questioned.

When asked about the number of MLAs supporting the Congress in the current political scenario, Singh only said, "Just wait".

He said an atmosphere of uneasiness has been prevailing in the BJP since the Kamal Nath government started cracking a whip on various mafias.

"We (the state government) are exposing Vyapam scam, e-tendering scam, Madhyam scam. In the honey-trap case, BJP men were found to be involved. This will be exposed," he said.

The political crisis in Madhya Pradesh precipitated with the resignation of Jyotiraditya Scindia over his apparent marginalisation in the state politics. Following Scindia's suit, 14 legislators loyal to him have sent their resignation letters via e-mail to Madhya Pradesh Raj Bhavan.

Scindia was subsequently expelled from the Congress by party president Sonia Gandhi.

Speculation that the Guna royal might join the BJP gained ground after he met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi this morning.
