Madikeri: Revenue Minister R Ashok has said that issuing statements has become a ‘hobby’ for KPCC Chief DK Shivakumar.
Speaking after inaugurating new Ponnampete taluk, he challenged DK Shivakumar to put out all the documents and evidences he has with him in connection to the suicide bid of CM’s Political Secretary NR Santhosh.
“Santhosh’s suicide attempt is due to his personal issues and it has nothing to do with the BJP or the government. DKShi to trying to give it a political colour by claiming that he has videos and audios in connection to the suicide bid,” Ashok said adding that BSY will complete his tenure as the CM of the state without any problems.
“There are no differences within the party. I had been to Delhi and even the national leadership has not spoken about change of guard,” he informed adding that Shankar, Muniratna and MT Nagaraj will be made ministers soon.
Meanwhile, Minister Narayana Gowda ruled out the suicide angle in Santhosh’s case and said that his health deteriorated due to change in medication.
