Bengaluru: Yeddyurappa's much-hyped 'Breaking News' ends in whimper


Bengaluru, Mar 16 (PTI): Karnataka BJP President B S Yeddyurappa's much hyped "Breaking News" that had created ripples in political circles and curiosity among the public, ended in a whimper today.

The former Chief Minister's tweet yesterday about "Breaking News" today at 5 PM had generated much curiosity and expectations in political and media circles, with many, who thought it would be a "major expose", glued to their internet or television sets.

The "Breaking News" in the form of a twitter and Facebook post,which came after an almost 45 minute delay,failed to make any impact as it was just a short video clip with Yeddyurappa repeating his charges against the Siddaramaiah government.

Reacting to the 'Breaking News', Chief Minister Siddaramaiah dismissed it as a 'rambling collection of lies.'



The post, with 5.14 minutes video containing Yeddyurappa's message and info-graphics, said "Congress govt led by @siddaramaiah has betrayed the people of #Karnataka & has been a No.1 failure in living up to their expectations!"

"#10PercentCM has cheated the people of Karnataka & has put a brake on the growth & development story of the state! #LiesDamnedLiesAndStatistics."

In his video message Yeddyurappa accused the Siddaramaiah government of completely damaging the state's economy and pushing it into debt, leading to a complete halt of developmental activities.


Alleging that the government has not kept up the promises made to the people, he said it has 'neglected' key sectors like health and education.

"This government has betrayed the people and it needs to be changed," he said.

In the video that also has statistics represented through info-graphics, Yeddyurappa expressed confidence that "the people have decided to bring BJP to power."

Claiming that BJP has both the grace of God and the people, he said "Achievements of Prime Minister Narendra Modi led government at the Centre, administration by Karnataka BJP in the past and Congress government's failures will help us in the elections."

"People are with us....I assure people that we will honestly work in solving their problems," Yeddyurappa said.

Comments flooded the social media, with many taking a dig at Yeddyurappa's "Breaking News" by terming it as a "flop show", "comedy" and "waste of time".

"Shri Yadiyurappa (Yediyurappa) @BSYBJP has himself described his so called Breaking News video well: #LiesDamnedLiesAndStatistics. Need I say more on his rambling collection of lies. Next time learn to cry wolf better. #BJP420," Siddaramaiah said.

"It is now known it is Bjp hacked Sri Moily's tweet! Yeddiyoorappa (Yediyurappa) who threatened a breaking news ran away being the suspect!" KPCC Chairman Media Department Prof Radhakrishna tweeted.

Radhakrishna was referring to the controversy over senior Congress leader M Veerappa Moily's tweet,suggesting that money plays a role in his party deciding who gets the ticket for the coming assembly polls in Karnataka, though he denied posting it, saying "I have not done it".

    In a startling revelation, a former BJP IT cell member has claimed that the whole BJP IT cell operates from the BJP head office 24 Ashoka Road, where around 300 people work, who perpetuate the propaganda and add fake content through the fake accounts, which later gets shared through the Facebook, WhatsApp and Twitter.

    Talking to YouTuber Dhruv Raathi, 27-year-old former IT cell member of BJP,Mahavir, hailing from Rajasthan said he worked in BJP IT Cell from 2012 to 2015, for which he was being paid 30 thousand rupees and facilitated with accommodation, food, travelling expense, internet connection etc.

    Former CM Yeddyurappa who is out on bail from jail in demining and denotification is part of this 'fake news' factory of BJP IT cell.

    CM Siddaramaiah please open his old cases of mysterious death of his own wife in water tank in own backyard. If properly investigated sensational 'Breaking News' will come forward in front of every Kannadiga.

    Let Yeddy Ex cm of Karnataka recollect his own governance from 2008 till 2013-

    1. First 100 days he attacked christian churches.
    2. Thereafter Karnataka had 3 CM's.
    3. BJP never got majority and used the Bellary Reddy's to do the purchase of MLAs in return to loot the Bellary Mines.
    4. Let him recollect how Bellary mines were looted within 5 years.
    5. Let him recollect he going behind bars for corruption and many more.

    Whereas congress governance from 2013 to 2018 do we hear or read any of the above? Absolutely nothing. Yeddy and BJP time to pack your bags, the south states don't need BJP.
