Bengaluru, Aug 17: Amidst massive allegations of phone tapping against Bharatiya Janata Party, an MLA from the same party has made a similar allegation against Karnataka chief minister H D Kumaraswamy.

Speaking to reporters here, the Chikkamagaluru MLA said that the CM was using the police to tap the phones of Congress, JD(S) and BJP legislators.

"Kumaraswamy is doing it because he’s insecure," Ravi alleged adding that former has no confidence in legislators amid reports that there are 17 of them who want to resign.

Ravi specifically claimed that the phones of Congress leaders such as Siddaramaiah, D K Shivakumar, M B Patil and BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa had been tapped into. "Everybody’s phone has been tapped," he said, without substantiating the claim.

The former minister chided the Congress-JD(S) coalition government for "ineffective" tackling of the flood situation in coastal and Malnad regions. "My district Chikkamagaluru has broken its 34-year rainfall record. The government is yet to make any serious effort to help those affected by floods. Kumaraswamy is going on pilgrimage, but this isn’t the right time for it," he said.

He also urged the State Election Commission to postpone the urban local body elections in the flood-hit districts.
