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.
