Yeddyurappa govt should get No. 1 award for corruption: Amit Shah!

In a major embarrassment to Karnataka BJP and its chief ministerial candidate B S Yeddyurappa, the party’s national president Amit Shah has described the former as the most corrupt in the state.

The video clip of the slip of the tongue is now going viral on social media.

“Recently, a retired Supreme Court judge said if there was ever a competition of the most corrupt government, then the Yeddyurappa government is number one...” said Shah, inadvertently, while addressing a press conference.

The comment has shocked Yeddyurappa and the BJP leadership. BJP MP Pralhad Joshi immediately corrected Shah by saying into his ear, “Siddaramaiah government.” Realising his gaffe, Shah corrected himself and said: ”Arre re...Siddaramaiah government is number one in corruption.”

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah then tweeted, saying that the BJP president had spoken the ‘truth.’ He wrote: “The #ShahOfLies finally speaks truth. Thank you @AmitShah.”

Shah is in Karnataka, where assembly elections will take place on May 12 with the vote counting set for May 15.

The truth has come out by their own toungue. 

Amit Shah said in a speach as YADIURAPPA is the most corrupt man in the state.

 

That is true. Yediurappa appropriated substantial sum of citizens money.

 

This is the game of Almighty.

Bengaluru, Apr 13: Eminent scientist and NITI Aayog member V K Saraswat said on Monday the number of COVID- 19 cases is not going to go beyond what's being reported daily in India as he maintained that the country is in the process of flattening the curve.

The former Scientific Adviser to Defence Minister said the coronavirus positive cases have seen a sharper rise in the last four-five days because of increase in the number of testing.

"It's a good sign; all those asymptomatic cases lying hidden they are also coming out," Saraswat told PTI. "We certainly had a catalytic factor which was basically this (Nizamuddin) Markaz problem which has actually created clusters at different places and that has also been one of the factors for the kind of rise that has taken place."

But he said India is in a much better shape compared to other nations in the battle against COVID-19. "I can only say that the rate is not going to go beyond what has been going on now, may be 700 to 800 cases per day. So, we are in the process of flattening the curve."

The government's decision to declare nation-wide lockdown has paid dividends, Saraswat, a former chief of the Defence Research and Development Organisation, said.

Noting that India has seen a series of virus attacks in the last 15-20 years including Chikungunya and Dengue, he said the emphasis now should be on more and more R & D to find vaccines in advance.
