2 Reddys + 1 Yeddy is Modi’s formula to win election: Siddaramaiah

Bengaluru, May 2: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday hit back at the Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his “2+1 formula” jibe at him and said the BJP leader’s formula to win the May 12 Assembly elections in the state is “2 Reddys + 1 Yeddy”.

Responding to Modi’s attack at an election rally earlier in the day at Santhemarahalli in Chamarajanagar district, on him contesting from two constituencies “with fear of losing” and also over fielding his son, Siddaramaiah pointed out that Modi had contested from two constituencies during the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

“Attacking Modi over BJP fielding brothers of tainted mining baron G Janardhana Reddy in the Assembly elections, Siddaramaiah said “2 Reddys + 1 Yeddy was Modi’s formula to win election.”

“Today PM avoided talking about his complicity in closing CBI cases against the Reddy bros. Instead he spoke about some 2+1 formula. Here is the explanation to his formula to win election. 2 Reddys + 1 Yeddy. #2Reddy1Yeddy” he said in another tweet.

‘Yeddy’ is a reference to BJP’s chief ministerial candidate B S Yeddyurappa.

Pointing out that even Modi contested from two constituencies — Varanasi and Vadodara — in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, the chief minister asked the prime minister to worry about his party not crossing 60-70 seats.

“Was it fear that drove you to contest from 2 parliamentary constituencies (Varanasi & Vadodara) Mr.PM” @narendramodi? Of course you are a 56 inch man, you would have some clever explanation!! Forget 2 seats, Sir. Worry about the fact that your party will not cross 60-70!””Siddaramaiah tweeted.

Addressing a rally at Santhemarahalli in”Chamarajanagara district, Modi termed Siddarammaiah contesting”from two seats, and his son Yatindra also contesting the”May 12 polls as Kannada version of Congress’ family politics.

Bengaluru, Jan 23: Expressing shock over the blast which left him and his supporters injured yesterday, Shantinagar MLA NA Haris today said that the incident cannot be brushed aside as a firecracker blast and appealed to the state government to inquire into the incident.

Recovering from the injuries sustained on his leg, Haris was discharged from St Philomena's Hospital on Thursday afternoon. 

Interacting with mediapersons outside his residence in Shantinagar, Haris said, “It wasn’t a cracker but a ball-like object that was hurled at me. Since my childhood, I have been seeing crackers and the object that was thrown at me was certainly not a cracker. It had splinters and hard objects.”

He said, “I have been representing the constituency for over 12-years and had no rivalry with anyone. Barring political ideology during elections, all the leaders in our constituency have been cooperative with each other. Yet, we do not know what the intention was or who was behind the incident.”

Revealing that home minister Basavaraj Bommai had called him to enquire about his condition at the hospital Haris said, “I have also briefed the home minister and explained to him what exactly happened. I have full faith in the police and will cooperate with the police during the investigation.” Haris said that doctors have advised him three to four-days of rest.
