No threat to Karnataka Govt: Kumaraswamy

Bangalore, Aug 21: Unperturbed by suspended Bharatiya Janata Party Legislator G Janardhana Reddy's threat to disclose evidence to substantiate the bribery allegations against him, Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy today said there is no threat to the stability of the JD(S)-BJP coalition Government.

Speaking to newspersons here, he said he was not bothered about anyone issuing threats to the stability of his Government and dismissed reports that the Government was facing any crisis.

It may be recalled that Mr Reddy had alleged that the Chief Minister had received a bribe of Rs 150 crore from mine operators in Bellary district to allow them to carry on with their illegal mining activities, kicking up a political storm in the State. He had said he would disclose the evidence in his possession on Wednesday.
