Siddu is waiting with a knife to stab Gowda; HDK has a knife to stab Siddu; no idea when they will die: Eshwarappa

Bagalkot, Oct 29: Senior BJP leader K S Eshwarappa’s tongue once again ran amok while addressing media persons at Bagalkot today as he indulged in personal attack against his political opponents.

"Siddaramaiah is waiting with a knife to stab Deve Gowda in the back. Kumaraswamy has a knife to stab Siddaramaiah in the back. No idea when all these people will stab each other and die," he said adding that the coalition government is a sinking ship and it will become obvious after the bypolls.

The former deputy chief minister said that he considers incumbent deputy chief minister G Parameshwara, JD(S) supremo Deve Gowda and PWD minister H D Revanna; the 'Rahu, Ketu and Shani' who defeated Siddaramaiah in Chamundeshwari constituency (during the Assembly polls). "If this is not so, I ask Siddaramaiah to clarify who is who," he mocked.

"All of JD(S) is his Shani and Siddaramaiah is lugging them around,” he said.

Eshwarappa told Siddaramaiah not to eat beef and 'eat what humans eat'. "Are you not satisfied having enjoyed all these years? " he asked.

"I never asked Siddaramaiah whether he eats beef or not. He himself said that he had not eaten beef and would 'eat if he wanted'. If he wants to eat beef, let him do so. I have no qualms," he added.
