The Congress today termed as "shocking" the Karnataka BJP spokesperson's claim that B S Yeddyurappa will be sworn in tomorrow and said it will tantamount to "murdering" democracy, "trampling" Constitution and disregarding all the precedents.
Congress' chief spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala also said that the will of the majority cannot be subjugated at the whims of the BJP and the Narendra Modi government at the Centre.
"Shocking, if true? Will tantamount to murdering democracy, trampling Constitution & disregarding all precedents. Majority will can't be subjugated at the whims of BJP & Modi Govt, Surjewala said on Twitter.
He was reacting to a tweet by Suresh Kumar who wrote in Kannada, "B S Yeddyurappa will take oath as chief minister at 9.30 am at Raj Bhavan tomorrow. Let us all gather on this happy occasion."
