Bengaluru, Dec 11 (DHNS): Senior Congress leader M Veerappa Moily, on Monday, hit out at BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa for calling Chief Minister Siddaramaiah a 'bachcha' (child).

"Who is the bachcha? Modi or Siddaramaiah? We will soon know the answer to this. The fate of BJP will become clear in the Gujarat and Karnataka elections," Moily told reporters here.

Moily, who is heading the manifesto committee of the Karnataka Congress, also launched a tirade against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for "blackmailing" the people of Gujarat.

"I haven't seen a prime minister indulge in political campaigning like this. He's going to each and every Assembly constituency in Gujarat. He is emotionally blackmailing people," the former Union minister said.

Yeddyurappa, who has been aggressively touring the state as part of the saffron party's Parivartan Yatra, has lost sight of ground reality, Moily said.

"What face does Yeddyurappa have to campaign? What are his achievements? He went to jail. Yeddyurappa has become helpless," Moily said.
