Yediyurappa Accuses Karnataka Government of Rampant Corruption and Stalled Development

Veteran BJP leader and former Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa launched a scathing attack on the current Congress government in Karnataka on Friday, alleging rampant corruption and a halt on nearly all development projects in the state.

Yediyurappa, a member of the BJP Central Parliamentary Board, announced his plans to visit the party office daily when in Bengaluru and to tour one or two districts weekly to address party workers' issues and strengthen support.

The senior leader criticized the government for focusing solely on publicity and neglecting development, characterizing its operations as a 'Tughlaq Darbar.' He condemned the alleged appeasement of minorities for vote-bank politics, urging justice for all communities.
