Yathindra Siddaramaiah

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah turned on the attack mode on Twitter again this morning after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's jibe about a "two-plus-one formula". Mr Siddaramaiah gave the formula a spin of his own -- one that dovetailed with his party's corruption allegations against the BJP.

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah -- whose decision to contest from Chamundeshwari seat is seen by many as a risky move -- today said he still has an "option", rekindling hopes of supporters that he may yet contest from a second seat. The Chief Minister's safe seat Varuna is going to his son Yathindra, a doctor making his debut in politics.

Karnataka Chief Minister K Siddaramaiah's son Yathindra has quit as director of a company that the opposition alleges was favoured for a government contract because of his VIP connections.

The Congress has sent a strong hint to Siddaramaiah, its chief minister in Karnataka, that his son should quit as director of a company that has won a government contract. The opposition alleges the company has been favoured because of the VIP connection.
