Bengaluru, Jul 27: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said that when COVID-19 has made life and livelihoods difficult, it is unfortunate that charges have been levelled of irregularities in the procurement of COVID-19 equipment.
"The Congress which has levelled charges against the ruling BJP has not so far filed a complaint with any investigating agency. Instead, the Congress has limited itself to getting publicity. On the other hand, the ruling BJP instead of coming clean by ordering a probe into the main charges is indirectly admitting the scam," Kumaraswamy said on Sunday.
"By washing dirty linen in public, both the Congress and the BJP are playing a cruel joke on people instead of protecting their lives," he said.
Hitting out at the BJP, he asked, "Why is it that the BJP is not ordering an investigation into the Rs 2,000 crore Covid 19 corruption charges levelled against the government by the Congress? Why is the government keeping quiet on the corruption charges?"
He said, "Is this the leadership provided by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa? There could be political pressure on seeking resignation of his Ministers. But why has no action been initiated against any officers? Is there any effort to destroy the evidence by retaining officers in their existing postings?"
"Hunger for publicity is evident when we look at the press conference by five Ministers at a time," he said.
The government has countered the charges of the Congress but backtracked on ordering an investigation, he said.
"Would this not give rise to suspicion that the government is involved in the scam?" he asked.
He also asked why Congress leaders have not filed a complaint before any investigating agency despite "possessing documents to prove the charges".
"Are the Congress leaders trying to get publicity or are they concerned about the welfare of the people? The Congress Legislative Party leader is seeking an account (Lekka Kodi) while the BJP president is seeking answers (Uttara Kodi). Is it enough to give such questions and answers?"
Is there a concrete legal plan to deal with the irregularities? he asked.
"Looking at the way the Congress leaders have addressed media conferences and taken to social media campaigns, it appears that they are trying to get publicity," he said.

I think this hate monger belongs to the family of MP Shoba, Ananta Kumar, Giriraj etc. I am sorry to say that these people are illiterate and still kids. They dont know what is ammunition and where they are stored. They think food grains or water or any items for use in Masjids are ammunitions. These people are either fool or trying to fool public. They are agents of Sangh parivar and trying to create unrest in society owing to upcoming election. Karnataka Govt should take note of this hate monger and arrest him immedaitely. He should be stripped of MP post as he is not fit to this position.
Please invite him to the Masjid and show him how we worship ALLAH alone who has no partners. There is no God but ALLAH and Muhammad is his messenger of God... who conveyed the message of ONENESS of God who has no image....(NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI) I think he should CONTEMPLATE on this verse of VEDAS to come near to the CREATOR of all that EXISTS. Picture will be CLEARNED when people PONDER on their own SCRIPTuRe which says GOD is 1 there is no SECOND and it has no image.... (Those who look honestly about the TRUE CREATOR, The CREATOR will Guide them to TRUTH)
Out of his brain...
