Karnataka's Political Tension: Congress Alleges BJP's 'Operation Kamala'

The Congress government in Karnataka, led by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, has accused the BJP of attempting to destabilize the state administration through a scheme labeled 'Operation Kamala'. Allegedly, BJP offered Rs 50 crores to Congress MLAs. Siddaramaiah insists that Congress MLAs remain loyal despite the opposition's tactics.

The political climate in Karnataka has grown increasingly charged, as the ruling Congress party, under Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, accuses the BJP of attempting to destabilize the state government. Dubbed 'Operation Kamala', these alleged efforts involve enticing Congress MLAs with offers of Rs 50 crores each to switch sides.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah reiterated these claims, stating they stem from credible sources. In a recent address, he emphasized the strength and stability of the current administration. Senior Congress figures, including Ministers HK Patil and Ramalinga Reddy, have expressed unwavering support for Siddaramaiah's allegations.

Minister HK Patil remarked that Siddaramaiah's information likely comes from trustworthy origins. Meanwhile, other party leaders criticized BJP's tactics, drawing parallels to their strategies in Maharashtra. Despite BJP's alleged attempts over the past six months, Congress leaders remain confident that their government will endure.
