New Delhi, May 19: Buoyed by today's collapse of the 3-day-old BJP government in Karnataka, Congress chief Rahul Gandhi launched a strong attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of authorising “buying off” MLAs and “disrespecting” institutions.

Gandhi also said while Modi talks of fighting corruption, "he is corruption".

Shortly of B S Yeddyurappa announced his resignation as the chief minister in the Karnataka Assembly, the Congress president told reporters that the prime minister was “not bigger than India, the Supreme Court and institutions”.

He hailed the unity shown by the Congress-JD(S) combine and said the opposition parties will work together to defeat the BJP.

“People saw how BJP MLAs, the Speaker left the House before the national anthem was played. It shows they don't respect institutions," Gandhi said.

“Prime Minister Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah do not respect any institution...This is the idea we are fighting,” he said.

Gandhi also said that he hoped that the BJP and the RSS "learn lessons" from the political developments in the southern state.

The Supreme Court had yesterday ordered a floor test in the Assembly at 4 pm today, drastically slashing the 15-day window given by Governor Vajubhai Vala to Yeddyurappa to prove his majority.

To a question, Gandhi said that “it is a good idea” that the governor should tender his resignation. The Congress chief, however, added that one who replaced Vala “may do the same thing”.

Targeting Modi, Gandhi alleged, “The prime minister authorised, encouraged buying off MLAs. He talks of fighting corruption, but he is corruption.”

Earlier, Yeddyurappa announced his decision to resign without facing a trust vote in the Assembly.

"I am going to resign as the chief minister...I will go to Raj Bhavan and submit my resignation," he said.

"I will not face the confidence vote...I am going to resign," he told the Assembly after a brief emotional speech.

Feb 14: India will never forget the martyrdom of the security personnel killed in last year's Pulwama attack, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Friday.

He termed the slain security personnel were "exceptional individuals" who devoted their lives to serving and protecting the nation.

On February 14 last year, a convoy of vehicles carrying security personnel on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway was attacked by a vehicle-borne suicide bomber at Lethpora in Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir. Forty Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel were killed in the attack.

"Tributes to the brave martyrs who lost their lives in the gruesome Pulwama Attack last year. They were exceptional individuals who devoted their lives to serving and protecting our nation. India will never forget their martyrdom," tweets PM Modi one year since the Pulwama attack.

"I pay homage to the martyrs of Pulwama Attack. India will forever be grateful of our bravehearts and their families who made supreme sacrifice for the sovereignty and integrity of our motherland," tweets Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
