The Karnataka BJP has launched an intense critique of the Congress-led state government, with party President BY Vijayendra leveling accusations of corruption against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. Addressing concerns over the Mysore Urban Development Authority (MUDA) scam, Vijayendra called for a transparent investigation. He also criticized the alleged anarchic state governance.

Following a meeting with Congress leader and Public Works Department Minister Satish Jarkiholi, Vijayendra reiterated the demand for an open probe into the MUDA and Valmiki scams.
