Speaking to media persons here on Tuesday, the Congress leader also came down heavily against the central government for not accepting recommendations of the Supreme Court collegium, with regard to appointment of judges.

"A rift between the judiciary and the government has been created in the country. Appoint judges to courts as per the recommendations of the collegium, if you (Prime Minister) have commitment (to the judiciary)," Poojary added.

Mr Poojary also demanded that Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah clarify rumours that three of his ministers have allegedly received kickbacks from a contractor in the Yettinahole project.

He said that highest bidder who received the contract of the project was blacklisted. Calling it a big scam, Poojary said, "It had appeared in all television channels that three ministers had received bribe to the tune of Rs 50 crore from a contractor. Let the CM reveal who these ministers are and how much they actually received."

Demanding action against the ministers, Poojary said, "You (Siddaramaiah) have the power to take action against the ministers. Stop justifying the actions of your colleagues and seek their resignation. Otherwise, people may suspect you too," Poojary said.
"No minister or leader is above the party. It is a matter of shame for the high command that allegations are levelled against ministers. It should direct Siddaramaiah to act against those ministers, no matter how influential they are," he said, adding that the project should be scrapped.
