Kumaraswamy to target CM for allegedly accepting donations from land developers and mining barons in return for official favours

Continuing its onslaught against the Chief Minister, JD(S) is expected to raise graft issues linked to Yeddyurappa in the Lok Sabha today. Former CM and JD(S) state unit chief H D Kumaraswamy, has alleged that an educational trust run by Yeddyurappa's sons is accepting donations from land developers and mining barons in return of government favours. As a section of the BJP high command is baying for Yeddyurappa's blood,u00a0 in a calculated move, Kumaraswamy has decided to raise this issue at a press conference in Delhi while Parliament is in session.

Kumaraswamy is allegedly flanked by senior leaders from the left parties and his father H D Deve Gowda. And the intention is clear: pressurise the BJP to take action against Yeddyurappa, while the principal opposition party is attacking the Congress on the floor of the house on corruption issues.
