Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah Rejects Resignation Demands Amid Investigation Row

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has refused to resign following High Court's rejection of his petition against the Governor's investigation approval in a site allotment case. Insisting on his innocence, Siddaramaiah accused the Narendra Modi-led government of vendetta politics and stressed he will continue his political and legal battles.

Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday rebuffed opposition calls for his resignation after the High Court dismissed his petition challenging the Governor's approval for an investigation into a site allotment case against him.

Siddaramaiah maintained his innocence, branding the accusations as baseless and politically motivated. 'I come from a background of struggle and will not bow to false allegations,' he said, asserting that he would not step down.

He accused the Narendra Modi-led government of indulging in vendetta politics and vowed to continue his political and legal fight backed by his party's high command and the people of Karnataka.
