Mangaluru: ‘Operation Lotus’ will destroy BJP and Yeddyurappa should stop doing it, said Senior Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary on Thursday, February 14. “Yeddyurappa will not stop indulging in ‘Operation Lotus’. It has become a hobby for him. ‘Operation Lotus’ will destroy BJP,” said Poojary addressing the media.

Responding to a question on SIT probe into audio clip issue and BJP’s opposition for the same, Poojary answered, “What is wrong in SIT probing the issue? Let the truth come out and all confusion will be cleared regarding the audio clip. BJP has demanded to form a house committee. Hence, it is the responsibility of every MLA, and speaker to take a decision on what kind of probe should be ordered into the controversial audio clip episode.”

To a question regarding Mulayam Mulayam Singh Yadav’s praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and expressing his wish to see him re-elected to office again, Poojary replied, “It is his opinion. Everyone has freedom to express their opinion. Whoever is destined to become the prime minister, will become one.”
