Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday slammed his successor BS Yediyurappa for his ‘absence’ when parts of the State are hit by floods as he sought to counter the social media campaign that mocked at his son Nikhil during the Lok Sabha polls.
There are floods in many parts of Karnataka. I need to ask, Ellidiyappa Yediyurappa (Where are you Yediyurappa)? Those who ran the Whatsapp campaign Nikhil Ellidiyappa I want to ask them where is Yediyurappa,” he said.
Apparently referring to Yeddyurappa’s two-day visit to New Delhi, Kumaraswamy tossed question in the same fashion which was an irritant for the JD(S) first family.
