Bengaluru, September 26: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said on Thursday that he would not be resigning from his post amid the MUDA scam allegations levied on him by BJP leaders.

The CM said that there were allegations against Union Minister and former Karnataka CM H D Kumaraswamy, yet he hasn't resigned, so why should he?

"I won't resign; why should I resign? There are allegations against HD Kumaraswamy, did he resign? Let Kumaraswamy resign, has Modi taken the resignation of Kumaraswamy," the CM said.

Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar also commented on the demands of the BJP leaders, calling it as "political drama" and saying that there are a lot of cases against BJP leaders too.

"I think it is all a political drama which they are trying to do. There are a lot of cases against several Union ministers & other leaders of the BJP, have all of them resigned? There is no need for CM to resign. The entire party from Delhi to the village stands with him. Being the party president, I am telling you there is no question of CM resigning," said the Deputy CM.

Earlier, Former Karnataka Chief Minister and BJP MP Basavaraj Bommai had asked for the resignation of CM Siddaramaiah, saying that if the CM wants a fair investigation, a resignation should be given to all the police officers be transferred by the CM himself.

"If he wants a fair and free inquiry and further investigation since Lokayukta and all the police officers are still being posted by the Home Ministry, all the IPS officers are being transferred by none other than the Chief Minister himself. To have a fair inquiry, with this background. Lokayukta should be given a free hand by the present government by his resigning from his CM post," Bommai said.
