Bengaluru, Aug 27: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has dismissed as “lies” the BJP’s accusation that the state government “tampered with evidence” pertaining to the suicide of DySP, M K Ganapathi.

“(BJP state president) Yeddyurappa never speaks the truth. He always lies... Can I reply to all that he Yeddyurappa speaks?” he asked when journalists sought his comment on the BJP leader’s demand that the chief minister must resign, taking moral responsibility.

On the BJP’s other demand that the case should be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Siddaramaiah said: “The CID has already submitted a report in the case. Some people have gone to the Supreme Court challenging the CID report. How can they (BJP leaders) demand a CBI probe when the matter is before the Supreme Court?” he said.

‘Cabinet expansion soon’

Siddaramaiah said he would soon expand his council of ministries.

The Congress high command has already approved the expansion, the chief minister added.
